Matcha koicha from Tip Top Tea

Matcha koicha

Green Tea by Tip Top Tea

Superb quality Japanese Usucha Matcha direct from our select contacts in Japan. Our matcha is produced in Uji City, Kyoto prefecture which is the area known for producing the highest quality Matcha in Japan. Quality and freshness can be identified by how vibrant a shade of green the matcha is. This tea begins as high quality Tencha green tea that is ground by flint mill to a fine powder. Drinking this tea gives a massive antioxidant boost (from the polyphenols and catchetins) alongside numerous other health benefits well documented online. Drinking a bowl of this healthy tea in the morning is a great start to the day!

Awesome. The picture does it justice as it is a really bright green which apparently means its good stuff and fresh. It must be cause for an usucha (thin tea) matcha this tastes pretty sweet! Nice balance with the sweetness and the grassy vegetal taste of matcha. I followed the recipe on their matcha-tea.co.uk blog and must say it does make an awesome green tea latte – better than that powdered mix crap I’ve had before!
