Ceremonial Matcha

Available from World Spice Merchants when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

This ceremonial grade matcha is vibrant, intensely green, and made for whisking into a smooth, frothy bowl. Its rich umami and bittersweet vegetal notes are layered with hints of fresh grass and sweet green pea. Made from shade-grown tea leaves that are stone-ground into fine powder, the shading process increases chlorophyll and creates that signature color and deep flavor. Creamy and smooth on the palate with a pleasant bittersweet intensity that mellows into a lingering, savory finish.
