I am a tea drinker. I like tea. I saw information about Matcha Tea and thought I would give it a try. I was excited and brave when I ordered it. When it arrived, I was hesitant to try it. It is a powered tea and it is green. I think I was most fearful of it because it was green. The package contains smaller individual sized packs making it easy to use - always getting the right amount; as well as making it easy to take with you. After adding the water, it was a bit more dense then other teas; and yes, it was green. I tasted it, it has a plant like flavor. One that will take a bit to get used too. So why would I want too? There are benefits to drinking it! One glass of MatchaDNA™ may be the equivalent of 10 glasses of green tea in terms of its nutritional value and antioxidant content.
From the company:
Matcha DNA™ green tea is organically grown and hand picked. It can been made as delicious tea, latte, martini or used in food like green tea ice cream and cooking.
Few people know that the current practice of drinking powdered tea in the Japanese tea ceremony is actually from the song dynasty in China. It dates back to over 1,000 years ago. This practice was carried on in Japan and is now considered a pillar of Japanese culture. Today. once again high quality Matcha is being made in China.
The tea has a slightly different character than its Japanese counterpart. Both teas have a deep green color and thick, savory taste and texture. Both are high in EGCG and antioxidants. However, our Chinese MatchaDNA™ is smoother, without the bitterness, and has rich, smooth and fresh taste unlike any other!
