Matcha - Kagoshima - Barista Blend

Description Our organic Barista-Grade Matcha is a blend of heirloom varietals from multi-generational farms located in the Kagoshima prefecture of Japan, where the rich volcanic soil contributes to a wonderfully nuanced flavor.  This blend combines the young, nutrient-dense leaves of the first Spring harvest with the most premium leaves of the second harvest.  The tea is shade-grown for a portion of the season, harvested in the spring and summer, and stone ground resulting in a vibrant green and deliciously smooth Matcha Green Tea. Organic shade-grown matcha is considered a superfood, rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, a range of beneficial vitamins and minerals, as well as the combination of caffeine and l-theanine that results in a focused and relaxed alertness.  Matcha will give you a more balanced and jitter-free energy boost throughout the day, without a peak and crash commonly experienced with coffee.
