What is Matcha?

Matcha is a premium Japanese green tea powder made from the finest shade-grown tea leaves. Best known for its healthy superfood qualities, Matcha is extremely high in antioxidants, amino acids, and other nutrients.

How is Matcha Made?

Matcha undergoes a number of additional steps in the production cycle, such as shade growing, hand picking, stem and vein removal, and stone grinding into a fine powder, before it makes its way into your cup.

Is Aiya\'s Matcha Organic?

Yes, Aiya carries USDA Certified Organic Matcha and conventional Matcha in ceremonial and culinary grades. The two main tea growing regions of Aiya’s Organic Matcha are Toyota and Kagoshima.

What are the Health Benefits of Matcha

The main benefit is the 100% whole leaf nutrition in its powdered form. This allows the body to absorb 100% of the benefits, including antioxidants, amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and more.

Why is matcha more costly compared to other green teas?

The cost of matcha reflects the careful, labor-intensive process of producing it. In Japan, top-quality matcha is a luxury item, but there are different grades, each with its own price and purpose.
