Roseland Organic Matcha tea has been awarded for many years as the best tea for mental and physical health. Matcha (“ground tea”) is a green tea powder, which even today is used in Japanese tea ceremonies, but the tea is also used for flavouring and colouring substances such as ice cream and pastries. To drink, it should be mixed with hot water at 60-70° at the desired strength and thickness, and preferably whipped up with a special bamboo whisk until a fine, green foam settles on the surface.
Green tea is not oxidized like the black variety, but is instead steamed and dried immediately after picking. This results in the preservation of the nutrients contained in the tea bush. Altitudes of 250 meters, calcium-rich soil and ground fogs constitute perfect conditions for excellent and complex green teas.
