This high-grade matcha powder is nearly electric in colour and foams to be sensationally creamy, even without milk. We are proud to serve this fine tea, which has become an Oficina trademark.
More information
This matcha releases sweet, vegetal aromas with an intensely profound umami taste. Suitable for any type of tea drinker, from a beginner to a connoisseur.
The leaves used to make this matcha tea were shaded for a similar duration as gyokuro. This promises a more vibrant green colour and deeper umami flavour. Matcha tea leaves are steamed and dried before they are ultimately ground down into a powder. Unlike gyokuro, however, the leaves are not rolled after they are dried. Grinding achieves a similar effect as rolling, but to an even greater intensity.
Storage: Keep Matcha in an airtight container to prevent fast oxidation. If used daily or every other day, keep matcha in a cool, dry place. If used 1-2 times a week, keep it in the refrigerator.
