The tin holds 20 g and is labelled 御抹茶 (\u003cem\u003ego-maccha\u003c\/em\u003e), a generic honorific used across the Japanese matcha trade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is matcha?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatcha (抹茶) is green tea leaf ground to a fine powder. Unlike leaf tea, which is steeped and strained away, matcha is whisked into the water and drunk whole — which is why it tastes fuller and more vegetal than brewed green tea, and why it colours whatever it is mixed into.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow to use \u0026amp; enjoy\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatcha is traditionally whisked with a bamboo whisk into hot — not boiling — water until it froths, and it is just as commonly blended with steamed milk for a matcha latte. Beyond the cup, it is a standard flavouring in Japanese-style baking and desserts: cakes, cookies, brownies, chiffon cake and ice cream, where it lends both its colour and a slightly bitter, grassy note. That bitterness is why matcha pairs so naturally with rich dairy, and why it is so often folded into cream and custard-based sweets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant — please check the package label\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile we make every effort to keep product information accurate and up to date, manufacturers may change formulations, packaging, allergens, ingredients, or specifications without notice.
