Organic Ceremonial Grade Matcha for Japanese - First Harvest -Hand Picked - Stone Milled | By Pantenger

Pantenger Matcha Green Tea Powder Ceremonial Grade is organically grown in Kagoshima Prefecture by a ninth-generation family-owned tea estate that has accumulated over 250 years of artisan expertise. The tea leaves are grown under shade for three weeks before the first flush of spring, and are then hand-picked and powdered using traditional granite stone mills. The "First Flush of Spring" is the first harvest of the year, and the leaves contain three times more L-theanine than the second or summer harvest. Pantenger Matcha powder contains high levels of antioxidants and amino acids.

The 20 days of shade force the plant to overproduce chlorophyll, which is what makes the matcha tea powder a vibrant emerald green. In contrast, low-quality matcha is pale and yellowish. Pantenger Matcha Ceremonial Grade is milled using granite stone mills, resulting in a silky texture. The L-theanine produced by an excess of chlorophyll gives Pantenger Green Tea Matcha a sweet taste and aroma of fresh grass, while low-quality matcha tends to be bitter and astringent.

Pantenger Ceremonial Matcha is supplied in airtight tins to protect the tea from oxidation. The natural harmony of these tins and the purity of the matcha itself invite the user to take a moment of their day to hold their own tea ceremony and enjoy quality time. This tradition of craftsmanship and attention to detail has been passed down through nine generations, ensuring that Pantenger Matcha Green Tea Powder Ceremonial Grade is a product of the highest quality.
