Our tea masters fuse traditional and modern techniques to cultivate leaves brimming with flavor and nutrients, creating well rounded flavor blends, not found anywhere else. Matcha contains a class of antioxidants called Catechins, particularly epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), believed to help prevent free radicals in the body. Matcha may offer a steadier and more sustainable source of energy compared to coffee, without the jitters or sudden crashes. This is due to the combination of naturally occurring L-theanine and caffeine in matcha powder, which has been shown to promote a calm and focused state while providing a consistent energy boost.
