Izu Matcha – Japanese Ground Green Tea with Smooth Gyokuro Notes
From £15.00Sale Price
Izu Matcha is our signature Japanese ground green tea, with the smooth, sweet depth you'd expect from gyokuro-style shaded leaf. Shading the tea plants before harvest boosts chlorophyll and L-theanine, giving Izu its vibrant green colour, its gentle umami sweetness, and matcha's hallmark calm-yet-alert energy — caffeine released slowly, softened by L-theanine.
How to prepare: Sift ½–1 tsp into a bowl, add ~70–80°C water (never boiling — it scorches the leaf), and whisk in a zig-zag motion until a fine froth forms. Drink as is, or top with steamed milk for a classic matcha latte.
Whether you're replacing your morning coffee or starting a mindful whisking ritual, this is the matcha to do it with.
