Café du Jour Matcha is a fine Japanese green tea powder in a 50 gram pack. The colour is a bright green and the taste is mild with a light earthy edge, so it drinks easily rather than sharp and grassy. Whisk it into hot water for a straight matcha, or into steamed milk for a matcha latte. It also works as a green tea base in smoothies and in baking.
Details

What you are drinking

Matcha is green tea in powder form. Where loose-leaf tea is steeped and the leaf then thrown away, matcha leaf is steamed and ground fine and whisked straight into the water, so the whole leaf ends up in the cup. That makes the drink fuller and thicker than a steeped green tea, and gives it that vivid green colour. The flavour here stays gentle: mild, with a light earthy note behind it.

How to make it

Sift 1 to 2 grams into a bowl or a wide cup; sifting is what keeps the lumps out. Add water at 70 to 80°C rather than boiling, then whisk in a zigzag, not a circle, until the powder has gone and a light froth sits on top. A bamboo whisk gives the finest froth, while a small milk frother or blender gives a smoother, flatter result. Top up with hot water, or with steamed milk for a matcha latte. At that dose, the 50 gram pack makes roughly 25 to 50 cups.

FAQ
Customer Questions
What exactly is this matcha made from and does it really come from Japan?
Our Classic Matcha is made from the leaves of the Camellia Sinensis plant and comes directly from Japan. The production process is carried out with Japanese precision: the tea leaves are carefully picked, steamed, and then ground into powder.
How do I use this matcha powder for the best result?
For the best result, use one teaspoon of matcha powder per cup. First, whisk the powder with a little hot (not boiling) water into a smooth, frothy substance using a matcha whisk (chasen). Then add more warm water to taste, or use milk for a matcha latte.
What is the difference between this matcha and regular green tea?
Matcha differs from regular green tea because you drink the entire leaf in powdered form, as opposed to leaf green tea where only the infusion is drunk. As a result, matcha has a more intense, creamier taste and contains more caffeine per cup. This matcha also has a mild flavour and is strikingly bright green in colour.
What makes this matcha special?
Our Japanese matcha is made by stone-grinding whole green tea leaves, so in the cup you drink the entire leaf. It is not a medical product and we cannot attribute any health effects to it: its strength lies in the full, velvety taste, with the typical umami note and a slightly sweet finish. It naturally contains caffeine, which makes it a good choice in the morning or early afternoon.
