Koicha Matcha Supreme Green Tea (30g)

After a long search we have finally found the greatest tasting Matcha. We have 30 grams of Matcha per tin that is good for up to 30 cups.

Matcha is the powdered leaf tea used in the traditional Japanese Tea Ceremony. To make Matcha, fresh green tea leaves from the finest Gyokuro green tea are ground into a fine powder using a stone mill. For the tea ceremony the powdered Matcha is measured with a chashaku (bamboo spoon) and is placed in a chawan (serving bowl), hot water is added, then whipped with a chasen (bamboo whisk) until frothy. The thick frothy tea is sipped right from the bowl. Two drinks can be prepared from Matcha for the ceremony – Usucha made with 1 1/2 heaping chashaku (bamboo spoon), or Koicha made with 3 heaping chashaku. Matcha has a bright jade green color and an unexpected distinctive flavor that is mellow and slightly sweet.

Green tea contains naturally-occurring compounds called polyphenols that have powerful antioxidant properties. In fact, all tea contains polyphenols, green tea just contains the highest levels. A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that these polyphenols may help prevent certain types of cancers, lower the risk of heart disease and help ward off colds and flu. There is even evidence that when used as an ingredient in sunblock lotions, green tea may inhibit some types of skin cancers. The Japanese National Cancer Research Foundation has gone so far as to describe green tea as the cheapest and most practical method of cancer prevention available to the general public.” Green tea is also a rich source of fluoride, which prevents tooth decay.

When steeping tea leaves some of these beneficial compounds are extracted from the leaf, but you can never extract 100%. However, with Matcha, you get 100% of these beneficial compounds, as you are actually consuming the whole powdered leaf.

Koicha Matcha Supreme Green Tea (30g) Reviews

Excellent
The green tea is excellent. (and it should be considering the cost for such as small amount!) I have to admit, I was shocked when I received the tiny little tin…the picture is deceiving. You think you are getting a huge amount. But you only need a small amount. Very smooth. Overall, it is worth it. I highly recommend this tea if you’re willing to dish out the cash.

Small can
I like the product, but I think the customer should be warned the product comes in a very small can. VERY SMALL. Basically I felt it was almost too small for the price you pay.It’s in a tiny metal can..So if you like to make iced green tea for the hot summer months..You might want to get 2 cans.

High quality matcha
If you are serious about tea drinking this brand is one of the best matcha’s I’ve tried. It is expensive but you get what you pay for. Everyday green teas have been found to have a lot of antioxidants so I would only purchase this for the taste. My take on sugar – it’s like mixing sugar into a dry wine. Usually only black teas are sweetened in Asia. Yes, there is a trend of sweetened tea drinks, but at least those are ice dessert drinks. If you want the benefits of green tea, you might want to purcahse a lower priced matcha if you’re going to mix it in other ingredients.

It’s Worth The Money
I know it sounds a little more pricey than the other green teas, but this one is smooth and not bitter at all. I put it in soymilk – like the matcha shots you can get at some juice stores. It’s refreshing!

Great taste and cute tin
I got this as a recommendation from a friend and I found this to taste really wonderful. It comes in a cute small tin and a small measuring spoon. I enjoy drinking matcha teas in the late afternoon to help me relax and this is the best matcha I have tasted.

If you’d like to get wild, sometimes I like to sprinkle the matcha powder on top of some vanilla ice cream and it makes a great dessert treat.
