About this item

Coffee gives you a jolt and then a crash. Matcha gives you something different - calm, sustained focus from the combination of natural caffeine and L-theanine, an amino acid that smooths out the stimulant effect and keeps you steady.* Organic culinary grade matcha powder means you consume the whole leaf - every antioxidant, every compound, nothing steeped and discarded. Whisk into water, blend into a latte, stir into a smoothie. One versatile powder, endless ways to use it.*
Ingredients: Organic green tea powder (culinary grade).
Serving size: 1 teaspoon - Servings per container: ~85 (6oz)
Quality: Certified organic, GMP-compliant facility, made in the USA.
Note: Matcha naturally contains caffeine. Not recommended for those sensitive to caffeine or for evening use.
Temperature tip: avoid boiling water - it makes matcha bitter. Just under boiling (around 175°F) gives you a smooth, sweet cup.
Regular green tea is steeped and discarded - you extract some of the compounds into the water but lose the rest with the leaves. Matcha is ground from the whole leaf and consumed entirely, giving you significantly more antioxidants (especially EGCG), more L-theanine, and more chlorophyll per cup.* Think of it as green tea, but concentrated and complete.*
The L-theanine in matcha is the key.* L-theanine is an amino acid that promotes calm alertness and smooths the stimulant effect of caffeine - it essentially takes the edge off.* Coffee delivers caffeine quickly with nothing to buffer it. Matcha delivers caffeine alongside L-theanine and plant fiber from the whole leaf, which slows absorption and produces a steadier, more sustained energy curve.* Most people describe it as alert but calm - focused without the anxiety or crash.*
Matcha is graded by quality and intended use. Ceremonial grade is the highest quality, designed to be whisked and drunk plain in the traditional Japanese tea ceremony. Culinary grade is slightly more robust in flavor and designed for everyday use - hot matcha, lattes, smoothies, baking, and cooking. It is still organic and still delivers the full nutritional profile of matcha.* Culinary grade is the practical choice for daily use.*
One teaspoon of matcha contains approximately 30-70mg of caffeine depending on the grade and preparation - roughly half a cup of coffee. However the L-theanine content means the effect feels quite different from coffee - steadier and calmer.* If you are sensitive to caffeine, start with half a teaspoon and see how you respond. Not recommended for evening use.
Green tea and matcha have a long traditional association with healthy metabolism support.* EGCG, the primary antioxidant in matcha, has been studied extensively in this context.* As part of a balanced diet and active lifestyle, matcha can be a supportive daily habit.* Consult your healthcare provider for specific health goals.
Approximately 85 servings per 6oz bag using 1 teaspoon per cup. For a stronger cup use 1.5-2 teaspoons, which reduces the serving count accordingly.
This matcha is certified organic, blended in a certified organic, GMP-compliant facility in the USA.
Clean, gently sweet with a soft grassy-umami character. Easy to drink straight with hot water. Excellent in lattes with milk and a touch of honey, which rounds and sweetens the natural green tea notes. Less bitter than many matchas due to the culinary grade processing.*
These two products serve different needs. Green Matcha Powder contains natural caffeine and L-theanine - it is your morning focus and energy ritual.* Rooibos Matcha Powder is completely caffeine-free with different antioxidants (aspalathin and nothofagin unique to rooibos) - it is your afternoon and evening ritual.* Same convenient powder format, different purposes. Many customers keep both.*
