What is the difference between Organic Matcha powder and Green Tea?

Matcha is not the typical green tea. Although they come from the same plant Camellia sinensis, Matcha contains much more nutrients than the typical green tea. 1 cup of Matcha tea is equivalent to 10-15 cups of typical green tea. Organic premium grade Matcha powder is made from first flush tea leaves. The finest Matcha is produced from young and tender leaves. The tea leaves are then steamed, dried and then milled into fine Matcha powder.
