For the organic food lovers out there, we offer USDA certified organic matcha powder green tea from the Nishio region of Japan. Being more health conscience is one reason many have incorporated matcha powder in their daily lives. Matcha boasts many nutritional properties that have great effects on our mood, focus, and health.
Non organic matcha can be grown using pesticides if the grower wishes. Certified organic matcha powder uses organic pesticides and there is a limit to how much. To be certified organic, the whole supply chain must be certified organic as well.
Concerning taste, non organic matcha, as with other teas, tends to be more full-bodied and has a more robust flavour. Organic matcha powder, however, has a tendency to be lighter and thinner in flavour compared to non organic matcha powder. Some tea lovers seem to gravitate to the taste of the non organic matcha, but for those who buy and shop with organic in mind, organic matcha is the perfect choice. We stock an organic range of organic ceremonial grade matcha, which is quite sweet and perfect for Japanese tea ceremonies and people who want to experience a more traditional style of matcha drink. Or for the cooks we stock organic culinary grade matcha (also known as cooking grade matcha), perfect for any matcha recipe.
