The Mother of all Green Teas

Why is the quality of Matcha important?  Unlike most commercial Matcha, our ceremonial Matcha is shade-grown, which reduces the bitterness and increases the levels of L-Theanine, a powerful amino acid and anti-oxidant.  By adding a small amount of matcha to your cold water bottle, you're hydrating and adding the most powerful plant-based antioxidants to your diet.
