Dreaming Matcha (Gold) [Ceremonial Grade Japanese Yame Matcha Green Tea Powder]

Yamecha Yame tea is a rare and highly esteemed brand of tea, accounting for only about 3% of the total Japanese tea production. Produced in Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan, Yame Tea is known for its sweet, rich flavor with a strong umami taste, and is also renowned as a production area for Gyokuro, with Yame Traditional Hon Gyokuro being the most famous.

Yamecha / Yame tea is a Japanese green tea grown and produced in the Yame region of Fukuoka Prefecture. Yame matcha is a type of matcha that is divided into various grades depending on the quality of the tea leaves used, cultivation methods, and processing methods.

Ceremonial grade matcha is made from the youngest and softest tea leaves harvested from the first (spring) new tea of the year, and is the highest quality matcha. It is ground with a stone mill, so no heat is added, resulting in fine particles and a vivid color. Ceremonial grade matcha has a sweet and delicate flavor and can be mixed with water or hot water.

Premium grade matcha is also made from young tea leaves harvested from the first (spring) new tea of the year, but it is machine-ground instead of stone-ground. Premium grade matcha is also vivid green in color and can be enjoyed dissolved in water or hot water or used in cooking or sweets.

Culinary grade matcha is harvested from first (spring) & second (summer) green tea leaves and has a slightly lower grade than premium grade. However, Mukoh Matcha confectionery grade matcha green tea powder is not the lowest quality. It is suitable for drinking, cooking, baking, and smoothies.

The green tea component "epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg)" is easily extracted at high temperatures above 80 degrees Celsius, while the umami component "amino acids" is easily extracted at low temperatures. "Caffeine" can be reduced by brewing tea at low temperatures.

For storage, it is recommended to avoid high temperature and humidity, and if possible, store in the refrigerator, and be careful not to transfer the fragrance.

Mukoh Matcha prides itself on delivering high-quality green tea and matcha sourced exclusively from Fukuoka, Japan's lush, water-rich Yame region, where tea production has been passed down through generations of expert farmers over the past 600 years.

Matcha has a long-standing cultural position in Japanese tea ceremonies and is considered a symbol of tranquility and relaxation. Incorporating the habit of drinking matcha into your daily routine can help you feel calm and at peace.

Matcha has a distinctive flavor that sets it apart from other types of tea. It can be enjoyed as a hot or cold beverage and is often used in cooking and sweets as well.
