Organic Premium Matcha Powder Green Tea from Japan.

Matcha is special, and because of the way it is produced, it is also powerful. Consider these numbers: 2 cups of brewed matcha contains 7 times the antioxidants of orange juice, 20 times that of apple juice, and nearly 20 g of calcium - and that’s just the short list! On a gram per gram basis, Matcha also contains approximately 10 times the polyphenols of regular teas. The healthy qualitites of the tea have led to the its break from tradition. Matcha can now be found served cold, as an ingredient in health shakes, ice creams, and even baked goods.
