Preparing Matcha & Tea Powders

In the traditional Japanese tea ceremony, matcha is dosed with a  chashaku bamboo ladle and foamed with water in a matcha bowl (chawan) using a bamboo tea whisk (chasen). A more basic approach ist to use an electric milk frother - however, for lump-free enjoyment and a beautiful head of foam, we recommend traditional preparation with a matcha whisk. 

Two methods of preparation 

In everyday life, the light matcha (usucha) described below is most popular. This variant is also suitable for preparing other tea powders such as benifuuki powder, kabuse powder and mulberry leaf powder. 

Concentrated matcha (koicha) is often prepared for special occasions. The less tannic, particularly high-quality traditional matcha varieties are suitable for its preparation. We recommend Matcha Supreme and Matcha Mantoku for this. Double the amount of tea while reducing the amount of water to produce a fragrant matcha with a thick consistency and dense foam.

Prepare

Briefly soak the matcha whisk in warm water to increase the elasticity of the bamboo and avoid broken ribs. Pass the matcha powder through a fine kitchen sieve.


Dose

Pour one or two spatulas or a small, levelled teaspoon (approx. 1 to 1.5 g) of matcha into the preheated, empty matcha bowl. 

Tip: If you prefer not to sift, you can first mix a small sip of cold water with the powder to make a thick paste.


Whisk it up

Fill up with 70-100ml of approx. 80° hot water and whisk the tea with a matcha whisk using rapid hand movements (as if drawing an "M" in the cup) for approx. 20 seconds until a fine foam forms on the surface.

Enjoy

Before drinking the matcha the Japanese like to place a tea sweet on the tongue. The combination with the matcha becomes a wonderful flavour experience.

Storing your Matcha

Green tea powder is very sensitive. Matcha and kabuse powder should be stored cool - preferably in the fridge. After first opening, use the powder within 4 - 6 weeks if possible.

But: even if your matcha should have passed its prime - it will have lost aroma and some of its ingredients, but might still be used for Latte or baking.

Look - smell and taste - to check before throwing it out.

Benifuuki Powder - Organic Japanese Tea Powder
The tea variety Benifuuki is characterised by a particularly high content of catechins (EGCG and EGCG3) which are readily available to the body and for this reason it is often drunk in Japan for allergies such as hay fever. For the first time we offer the tea variety Benifuuki not only as leaf tea, but also as a golden green powder, which we can grind very finely and freshly right on our stone mills here on site. One strong or two light portions per day are recommended. Due to its intensive aroma it is very economical in use. Already half the usual dosage results in a finely fragrant, particularly good foaming tea. Aficionados like to drink it pure. For those who find the taste too tart, we recommend a mild dosage, a combination with mild mulberry leaf powder or use as a supplement in drinks and food. Prepared with a little water and lemon and/or apple juice, it is, for example, a sparkling refreshing drink. Storage In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the powder in the best possible way, we recommend to seal the bag well and store it in a cool and dark place, ideally in your refridgerator or freezer.

Kabuse Powder No. 1 - Organic half-shaded Tea Powder
Kabuse Powder No. 1 - Organic half-shaded Tea Powder
A powdered tea from the 1st picking in May. Very aromatic with a noble bitter note. Recommended for light Matcha (Usucha) and ideal for mixed drinks and green tea cocktails. Kabuse Powder Kabuse Powder, unlike Matcha, is not extracted from Tencha but from the whole tea leaf. Also, the tea plants for Kabuse powder are shaded by 50% instead of 90% and thus grow in half shade. By grinding from the whole leaf, the Kabuse powder contains more tannins than Matcha and has a stronger taste. The strong green color and its stronger aroma bring out the full green tea taste. Whether in cocktails, ice cream or milkshakes, Kabuse powder is an all-rounder. Storage In order to preserve the precious flavours and ingredients of the powder in the best possible way, we recommend to seal the bag well and store it in a cool and dark place, ideally in your refridgerator or freezer.

Mulberry Leaf Powder - Organic
Mulberry Leaf Powder - Organic
The mild and sweet aroma of mulberry leaves has a relaxing and soothing effect. The color, especially in powder form, is similar to matcha tea with its fresh light green hue. In terms of taste, the powder is reminiscent of a mild matcha with the slightly nutty note of nettle tea. It is not for nothing that the powder of ground mulberry leaves is popularly used in Japan for caffeine-free "matcha lattes". This may be attributed to the fact that the mulberry leaves are steamed and processed just as gently as Japanese green tea, which also preserves the sensitive ingredients in the best possible way. Whipped up like matcha or matcha latte, it is an ideal caffeine-free and milder alternative or can be used as a complement to matcha for the evening. Mulberry leaves do particularly well as a balancing component in more tart teas such as Benifuuki powder - here the sweet aroma creates a pleasant balance. With its wealth of active ingredients the powder also makes for a valuable addition to green smoothies.
