Ceremonial matcha is the highest quality green tea powder, traditionally used in Japanese tea ceremonies. It is made from the youngest, most tender tea leaves, which are carefully hand-picked and then finely ground in stone mills to produce an especially fine, bright green powder.

This type of matcha has a gentle, refined taste with a slightly sweet and velvety aftertaste, without the bitterness typical of lower quality teas. Ceremonial matcha is usually enjoyed in its pure form — whisked with hot water until light foam forms, to fully experience its natural aroma and energetic qualities.

It is considered especially pure and valuable, and its use is more of a ritual and mindful experience, rather than just an ordinary daily drink.
