The difference between all Matchas
1. Matcha Original:
Matcha Original is basic quality, made from older leaves or leaves from later harvests. These leaves are less delicate and contain slightly fewer amino acids, resulting in a milder flavor, though sometimes a bit more bitter. The color is less vibrant green than Premium or Ceremonial Matcha.
2. Matcha Premium:
Premium Matcha is of a higher quality and is made from the young, top leaves of the first harvest. These leaves are shade-grown for several weeks, making them softer, sweeter, and richer in nutrients. The color is bright green, and the flavor is mild and aromatic.
3. Matcha Ceremonial:
Ceremonial matcha is the highest quality, specifically for traditional Japanese tea ceremonies. It is made from the youngest, most delicate leaves of the first harvest, which have been carefully shaded for several weeks. The flavor is very smooth, slightly sweet, and without bitterness. The color is a bright emerald green, a sign of the most careful cultivation and processing.
