Uji Matcha Imperial starts your day with energy and keeps you focused!   

Tea Type or Tisane | Flavors: Green | edamame, savory, umami

Tea Tips: Drink in the morning to energize and focus your day. Shade-grown matcha has more antioxidants than any other green tea. 

Ingredients: Cultivar: Yabukita, Shade-grown matcha green tea from Uji, Japan. 

How to Steep: Add 1 tsp of matcha to a bowl. Pour 1 Tbsp of 185°F water on the side of the bowl opposite the matcha. Using a bamboo whisk, mix the water and matcha into a thick paste. Pour 2–3 oz of 185°F water into the bowl but away from the matcha. With the whisk, vigorously mix the water and matcha until a thick froth forms. Enjoy!

Fun Fact: Shading the tea plants reduces the bitter catechins while increasing chlorophyll and amino acids. These components increase the umami and savory flavors.
