Matcha Green Powder (Loose Leaf) is an ingredient-grade, Chinese green tea that has been ground into a fine powder. Unlike regular green tea, where the leaves are removed after being brewed, Matcha Green Powder is stone ground into a fine powder (from the leaves) and meant to be whisked with water and consumed entirely, hence ensuring almost 10-times higher concentration of antioxidants, polyphenols, vitamins and minerals. This culinary-grade Matcha Green Powder is meant for making smoothies, shakes, lattes, cocktails and cooking. Alternatively, Ceremonial Matcha is meant for just that , ceremony, and is meant to be enjoyed pure, without the added flavor of steamed milk or sweetener. Culinary Matcha Green Powder, on the other hand, is meant for cooking and combination, and is the grade of matcha that you would commonly drink in coffee shops or cafés.
