Consumed for several centuries in Japan but still little known in France, Matcha is a traditional Japanese drink which is gaining popularity throughout the world. Because of the way it is grown and processed. The tea leaves are shaded for the last few weeks before harvest, which helps increase the chlorophyll and amino acid content. Unlike the classic green tea we know, the tea leaves are then hand-picked, dried and ground into a fine green powder. We therefore consume the entire tea leaf and benefit from all its virtues.
