Matcha Green Tea is a premium stone-ground green tea powder made from shade-grown tea leaves cultivated in Shizuoka, Japan. Because the entire tea leaf is consumed, matcha delivers a rich, smooth cup with vibrant color, creamy texture, and naturally concentrated green tea flavor. Notes of fresh greens, gentle sweetness, and balanced umami make it equally enjoyable whisked traditionally or blended into lattes, smoothies, and recipes. Available in a 4 oz package.
