Traditional Matcha

Directly translated, the term matcha simply means powdered tea. According to the traditional understanding, the following applies to real matcha:

Fully shaded tea: The tea plants are covered with nets that only allow about 10% of the light to pass through. This allows the plants to produce a lot of chlorophyll, theanine and caffeine, but few bitter flavours.
Tencha: After steaming, drying and breaking the harvested leaves, the leaf tissue is separated from the leaf veins in a stream of air. Only the delicate, flake-like leaf tissue parts called "tencha" are used.
Milled on granite stone mills: The slow-turning granite stones produce a unique fineness that not only creates a pleasant mouthfeel, but also a particularly aromatic, mild flavour compared to the faster matcha mills made of ceramic or other materials.

To avoid loss of quality due to long delivery times, we have brought KEIKO Matcha production to Diepholz.

Here, the matcha is bottled in a nitrogen atmosphere for long-lasting fresh enjoyment. This keeps the fine powder fresh for a particularly long time and minimises the ageing process.

Premium - Organic Japanese Matcha

The Matcha Premium has a very well-rounded taste. Slightly mild and nut-like it balances between tartness and sweetness. It has an intense fragrance and a strong green colour. Matcha Premium is particularly suitable for thin preparation (Usucha). Genuine Japanese Matcha freshly ground in Germany The tea plants from which Matcha is made are traditionally 90% shaded. The plants develop a lot of chlorophyll, theanine and caffeine, but slightly fewer bitter substances. After steaming & drying the tea leaves, the leaf tissue is separated from the leaf veins. The delicate, flake-like leaf tissue particles are called "Tencha" and are later very slowly ground into high-quality Matcha on traditional granite stone mills. In order to preserve the sensitive ingredients in the best possible way, we at KEIKO grind the Matcha on genuine Japanese granite stone mills directly at our location in Diepholz, fresh when required. Did you know that traditional Matcha develops uniquely fine aromas, from mild and nut-like to intensive and grassy thanks to the elaborate production techniques? Storage In order to preserve the precious aromas and ingredients of Matcha in the best possible way, we recommend to seal the Matcha well and store it in a cool and dark place.
