Matcha is a powdered, whole leaf green tea, native to Japan. Its origins are ancient, going back to the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, yet that hasn’t stopped it from being a part of modern life. In Japan, its unique qualities and taste are loved by people from all walks of life—from old-fashioned traditionalists to stylish urbanites. History of Matcha Tea has been cultivated since the dawn of civilization. First introduced in China during the 9th century, tea was brought to Japan by Zen Buddhist monks. It was not until the 12th century, however, that it became a widely popular beverage. Since then, tea has influenced every facet of Japanese culture. To this day the Japanese tea ceremony, Channoyu, is a time-honored tradition that literally translates to "the way of tea." Health Benefits It's not just delicious. Matcha has been associated with health, happiness and wisdom throughout Eastern cultures. The science is: packed with antioxidants, flavonoids and a ton of vitamins and minerals, matcha has earned a well-deserved reputation as a "superfood." Studies even suggest that the green tea can help promote cardiovascular health, bone strength and prevent chronic illnesses. If that wasn't enough, it is also believed to have anti-aging properties. Key Characteristics Bright and lively in flavor Fresh and grassy notes with a rich, smooth taste Celebrated for its versatility and umami flavor- the 5th taste sensation- and a savory and subtle sweetness Its high L-Theanine amino acid content has inspired matcha to be used not only as a beverage, but as a cooking ingredient Heritage ITO EN (North America) INC. was founded by the Honjo family in Japan in 1966 and are, today, global leaders in green tea and healthy beverages.
