Delicious green tea

The flavor is wonderful. The next order will be for loose tea to avoid the plastics in the tea bags.

Hi, Peggy! Glad you're enjoying our tea! Also, our tea bags are plastic-free and plant-based. The bags are actually made of potato starch :)

More about this tea

What's inside these matcha tea bags

These matcha tea bags hold whole tencha leaves, the shade-grown leaf that becomes matcha once it is stone-ground. The leaves come from Kagoshima, in the far south of Japan. They are steamed, dried flat, then cut and sealed in plant-based bags, 20 to a box. So you are steeping matcha's own leaf, not a green tea with matcha dusted over it.

How they taste and how to brew

Shading gives tencha its savory depth, so the cup is round and full of umami, with a smooth finish. Steep one bag in 8 ounces of water at 175 to 195°F for 2 to 3 minutes. The cooler end of that range keeps it sweeter. For iced tea, shake a bag in 8 ounces of cold water for about a minute and pour it over ice.

Organic matcha tea bags for busy days

These are for the days when there is no time to sift and whisk: at a desk, in a travel mug, away from home. All they need is a cup and hot water. If you would rather steep tencha loose in a teapot, or grind it into matcha yourself, try our Private Reserve Tencha Leaves.
