Description Authentic Matcha Japanese powdered green tea. Super Grade Kansai from superior grade Gyokuro leaf from Japan. The origin of Matcha is synonymous with the Zen Japanese Tea Ceremony (Cha-No-Yu) dating back 5 centuries. The highest quality Gyokuro Jade Dew or other similiar high quality green tea leaves were hand ground immediately prior to the Tea Ceremony. This is the quality we are offering. Hiki-cha, a powdered green tea of a much less quality, has been imported into North America over the past few years. and has been mislabeled as Matcha. For detailed instructions on 'brewing' Matcha please see various internet videos and sources.
