This culinary grade matcha is produced from plants grown in the Tai Shan Tea Plantation, located in the northwest of Zhejiang province, an area known for its humid climate and long tradition of tea processing.
Before harvesting, the bushes undergo a period of shading, a technique inspired by high-end productions that promotes an increase in chlorophyll and intensifies the color of the final powder.
Compared to Japanese matchas, this Chinese interpretation stands out for a more robust and voluminous character in the cup. After emulsification, it develops a consistent foam and a markedly green flavor profile, with a typical grassy note and a slight bitterness on the finish, qualities that are particularly appreciated.
