Product Description
Our Organic Ceremonial Matcha Powder is made from the youngest, most tender first flush leaves — the very first harvest of the season, prized for their superior flavor and nutrient density — of organically grown Japanese green tea (Camellia sinensis). The tea plants are carefully shade-grown for several weeks before harvest, a traditional method that reduces sunlight exposure and encourages the plant to produce higher levels of chlorophyll and L‑theanine. These prized leaves are then hand-picked, steamed, dried, and stone-milled into an ultra-fine, silky powder.
Unlike regular green tea powder or tea bags, matcha provides concentrated nutrition — one cup of matcha equals 10–15 cups of typical green tea. To put is simply, matcha = concentrated green tea. Traditionally enjoyed in Japan for centuries in tea ceremonies, ceremonial matcha is celebrated today for its smooth umami flavor and unique synergy of EGCG antioxidants, caffeine, and L-theanine, delivering calm, focused energy that lasts for hours without the jitters of coffee.
What makes our Organic Ceremonial Matcha special? Sourced from the renowned tea-growing regions of Japan, it is certified organic to ensure purity without chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Our matcha is lab-tested for heavy metal safety, offering complete peace of mind when it comes to quality and wellness. Crafted from the first harvest of the youngest leaves, ceremonial-grade matcha boasts a vibrant bright green color, delicate umami taste, and an ultra-fine texture. This premium grade is best enjoyed in the traditional way — whisked with hot water — to savor its smooth flavor and nutrient-rich profile.
Why Choose Ceremonial Matcha Powder: Experience matcha in its purest form and highest quality. Ceremonial matcha is ideal for mindful tea rituals, offering a refined taste and superior nutrition. With its rich antioxidant profile, chlorophyll for detoxification, and amino acids for relaxation and focus, it’s a superfood that supports energy, mood, metabolism, and overall vitality — perfect for daily wellness or those special times when you want to truly pamper your body.

- Supports Brain Health: Daily consumption of Matcha Powder has shown protective effects against cognitive decline in elderly people.
- Boosts Metabolism by Enhancing Fat Burning: Drinking matcha before exercise helps enhance fat oxidation, meaning it helps the body burn more fat as fuel during moderate activity.
- Helps Reduce Stress & Anxiety: The catechins and amino acids in matcha — especially L‑theanine — play a key role in stress reduction and mental well‑being.
- Supports Gut Health: Matcha catechins promote the growth of beneficial bacteria (e.g., Lactobacillus) while suppressing harmful bacteria.
- Supports Liver Health: Matcha’s catechins, especially EGCG, help prevent fat accumulation in the liver and reduce inflammation, protecting liver cells from damage.

Health Benefits
How To Enjoy
Our ceremonial matcha has a smooth, umami-rich flavour best enjoyed traditionally. To maximize its benefits — particularly for steady energy and focus — whisk ½–1 teaspoon with hot water daily.
- Hot Matcha Tea: Place ½-1 teaspoon matcha powder into a small cup or bowl. Add about 80ml-100ml water of about 80 °C. Whisk the mixture with a bamboo chasen to create a smooth froth and preserve traditional flavor. Note these alternative tools: Using a spoon to stir matcha will work too; however, this method usually leaves clumps and the tea will taste flatter (less smooth)- works in a pinch if you just want the nutrients, not the traditional texture. A small electric frother can mix matcha quickly too, but it often produces larger bubbles.
When to consume Ceremonial Matcha: Best consumed during the daytime for focus and alertness, and to avoid interference with sleep. Matcha is also a good pre-workout drink to aid with fat burning during exercise.
Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place after opening. Refrigeration is preferred. Consume within 1-2 months for best taste.
Please note: Nature's Superfoods offers 2 grades of Organic Matcha Powder. To make Matcha Latte or use Matcha in baking / dessert recipes, choose the more economical Organic Culinary Matcha Powder (For Recipes).
