Zen Matcha Powder

Ceremonial grade is the highest quality matcha, made from the first spring harvest of shade-grown tea leaves. Only the youngest, most tender leaves are hand-picked, stone-ground, and processed in small batches. The result is a vibrant green color, smooth umami flavor, and zero bitterness.

Ceremonial matcha uses only first-harvest leaves (available once per year), requires 30+ days of shade covering, hand-picking, and slow stone-grinding that produces only 30g per hour. Culinary grade uses later harvests, machine processing, and includes stems — it's a completely different product.

A chasen produces the best results — a smooth, frothy bowl of matcha. However, you can also use a small regular whisk, a milk frother, or even a shaker bottle with a whisk ball. The key is vigorous whisking in a W or M motion until frothy.

Yes, and it makes an exceptional latte. Whisk 1-2g with 2oz hot water first to create a smooth paste, then add steamed milk of choice. Oat milk and coconut milk are particularly complementary. It's also delicious iced — whisk with cold water and pour over ice milk.
