Matcha green tea is pure tea leaves that are steamed, pulverized, roasted and ground into a vibrant green powder. Whip or whisk it with hot water in a bowl and enjoy a 900-year-old Japanese tradition. It is tea in its’ purest form filled with rich antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Urth purchases its matcha direct from a handful of the rare, certified organic tea growers in Japan.
Urth Caffé’s organic matcha comes in two grades: the exclusive ceremonial-grade Wazuka matcha and the Harayama matcha. Both come from the same tea bushes, but the Wazuka matcha is made from the smallest new leaves and is incredibly difficult to produce—making it one of the most sought after and highly prized ceremonial-grade matchas in the world. The Harayama matcha is made from larger, second flush leaves. It is an excellent sweet, pure and healthy tea produced organically in the traditional way—perfect to enjoy each and every day.
