Organic Ceremonial Matcha Tea

Discover the excellence of Japanese tea with our Veegreen Organic Ceremonial Matcha, grown in Shizuoka, at the foot of Mount Fuji, one of the historic heartlands of Japanese tea.

It is in the heart of this privileged terroir, in high-altitude plantations, that the leaves selected for our matcha are grown. Cooler temperatures and the temperature variations between day and night naturally slow the growth of the tea bush and contribute to the development of a fine, fresh and well-balanced aromatic profile.

Combined with the fertile soils of Shizuoka, an environment particularly suited to tea cultivation, and the expertise of Japanese producers, these conditions give rise to leaves of great delicacy.

Our Ceremonial Matcha is made from Tsuyuhikari, a Japanese cultivar originating from Shizuoka, particularly prized for its natural sweetness, delicate umami, low astringency and beautiful green color.

Harvested from the first spring flush, our matcha is produced from carefully selected young leaves. Before harvest, the tea bushes are shaded for about 20 days using the traditional Japanese method. This reduced exposure to light helps maintain a high concentration of chlorophyll and amino acids, including L-theanine, and contributes to the intense color, sweetness and umami characteristic of matcha.

After harvest, the leaves are quickly steamed to stop oxidation, then dried without being rolled to become tencha, the traditional raw material of matcha.

The tencha is then slowly ground on a stone mill using the traditional Japanese method, until it becomes an extremely fine powder.

The result: a matcha with an intense emerald green color, a particularly silky texture and a naturally smooth, umami-rich taste, with very little bitterness.

Pour 2 g of matcha (about 1 level teaspoon) into a bowl. Add 60 to 70 ml of hot water between 70 and 80 °C, then whisk vigorously with a chasen until you obtain a fine, creamy foam.

For a Matcha Latte, then add the milk of your choice and, as you like, a drizzle of agave or vanilla syrup. You can also enjoy it iced with a few ice cubes.
