Matcha is not new and can be drunk with finely ground green tea leaves in a few cafes. Matcha powder is mixed with boiling water or drunk as a latte with milk. In addition to such lattes, some stores also offer chocolates, matcha cocktails, and even powdered fish seasoning. One reason for this is its supposed hidden power: caffeine for creative stimulation, calming theanine for balance.
What is matcha anyway?
Matcha is a type of Japanese tea in which the leaves of the tencha plant are ground into powder. The leaves are closed four weeks before harvest so that more chlorophyll develops and the green color can develop better. Also, the taste of tea is fresher, slightly sweet and not as bitter as other types of green tea, which makes it very attractive to many consumers. It’s wonderfully mixable thanks to its powdery consistency – many mix it into soy milk or hot chocolate.
What is the effect of matcha?
Matcha can be added to a morning smoothie and has a wake-up effect. The powder can even be used for cooking – it refines meat dishes, but vegetables also take on a slightly bitter aftertaste. It is also suitable as a food coloring and can be used while baking, whether muffins or cakes.
Where to buy matcha tea?
Since only the most valuable part of the tea leaf is pulverized (stem and leaf veins removed), it is clear that matcha tea is not necessarily one of the cheapest types of tea. You can easily pay 30 francs for a 30 gram box, sometimes 50 francs. And of course, the stylish tea rooms that can now be found in many big cities should not be missing. You can hardly find matcha tea in regular supermarkets – you need to go to the appropriate specialized stores. Or you can order online. (centimeter)
