About Matcha Ceremonial Grade Yame - Yabukita 100g

Chocolatey, nutty, smooth, with a long-lasting sweetness - if you’re looking to dive deeper into Matcha, this premium quality tea from Yame is where to start. The accessible and more-ish tasting notes make this a beautiful tea to enjoy a ceremony with. Slow, deliberate, delicious. When whisked with a bamboo whisk, this Matcha turns into a smooth foam with an intense green colour. The tea boasts a high level of amino acids and L-theanine, giving it a sweet umami taste.

About Yame

Yame, in North Fukuoka, Japan, is famous for its tea production, with terroir ideal for cultivating Matcha and also Gyokuro, fed by the rich mountain valleys and surrounding forests. There is a fine balance between modernity and tradition here when it comes to production, with Yame gathering fame for its teas.

Cultivation

This single origin Matcha is made from Tencha tea leaves of the first spring harvest (Yabukita variety). The leaves are shaded for three weeks before harvest to develop rich, green chlorophyll and amino acids, steamed upon processing to halt oxidation, and then milled into the finest powder with stone mills to become Matcha.

Effects

This ultra-healthy beverage contains the nutritional equivalent of 10 cups of regular green tea and has been dubbed the 'ultimate superfood' by nutrition experts. The tea contains catechins, carotenes and vitamins A, B, C and E. The green powder is rich in the amino acid L-theanine, which promotes relaxation and reduces stress while providing long-lasting alertness. Matcha can also improve brain performance, concentration, memory and mood.

How to Enjoy

Enjoy this high-quality Matcha pure to experience its full flavour.

To prepare, sift 1 AVANTCHA Matcha spoon of powder (1.5g) into bowl or press whisk down several times to break up and loosen the powder.

Add 10ml of room temperature water and whisk to a paste, then add 60ml hot water (75°C) and whisk briskly until a consistent, frothy layer is formed. Try it as a Matcha Affogato.
