🎥How to make Matcha (Usucha - Thin Tea)

Matcha is a traditional Japanese green tea powder from stone-ground shade-grown leaves. With vibrant green color and rich umami flavor, it's perfect for mornings or after lunch. Its unique caffeine and L-theanine combination provides sustainable energy without jitters or crashes common with coffee. Usucha offers the purest experience of matcha's complex flavor and is ideal for ceremonial grades. Try our Single origin Okumidori from Kagoshima for this.
