上抹茶 JO MATCHA

Matcha is generally known as powdered green tea leaves. There are many varieties of Matcha powder and they differ in taste, form very cheap and poor quality of Matcha to the most expensive ones used in tea ceremonies.

The real Matcha is a very expensive tea.

The tea leaves traditionally used for Matcha are cultivated by covering the tea fields and blocking the sunlight. And the tea leaves processed for Matcha are called "Tencha". By grinding Tencha leaves with a stone mill, it becomes a smooth and fine powder, and it becomes a delicious Matcha with a mild astringency and rich umami. In Japanese History there are many remarks of eminent figures enjoying Matcha tea. It was an indispensable drink for celebrations and entertainment.

What is very sad, the cheap Matcha that is currently on the market is not made from tea leaves that are cultivated with a cover, but with tea that is made by simply powdering the cheap green tea leaves with a machine.

Our purpose at MON TEA is to bring the best quality and taste of Matcha tea to our customers, so the tea leaves used in MON TEA's Matcha are all from the original Tencha, which is a high-class organic Matcha finely ground with a stone mill.
