Product Information

I also created this blog as a resource for people who are interested in starting a vegan diet and to stay healthy while on it. Green Tea has be one of my favorite beverages since I discovered it over 15 years ago. Like most people, I’d go for the brands you typically find in the supermarket such as Twining’s, Clippers, or Tetley. And there’s nothing particularly bad about them, they taste fine! At least until you try pure matcha green tea from PureChimp. Chalait is a great brand for both beginners and longtime matcha lovers. Based in New York City, Chalait offers multiple kinds of matcha—all sourced from Japan—at an array of prices. We think the brand's Everyday Matcha is a terrific starting point for beginners because it's affordable yet tastier than many expensive matchas. Some newbies might gravitate toward the absolute cheapest brand, dislike it, and miss out on a world of matcha powders they'd actually enjoy. But the hearty and slightly sweet flavor of this matcha showcases why the tea is so beloved.

After about a month of basking in filtered sunlight, the tea leaves are harvested, then steamed to prevent oxidation (which would otherwise turn the leaves dark and bitter). Next, they're dried with a special machine that keeps the leaves flat. The soon-to-be matcha is put through yet another machine that removes any wayward stems or veins, then is ground into an incredibly fine and antioxidant-rich powder. Due to a brief harvest season, select growing regions, and the effort it takes to cultivate and grind green tea leaves, matcha powder is pricey, especially compared to coffee and tea. The price point has a high floor, and if you come across a brand selling ceremonial matcha far below other competitors it should raise some eyebrows regarding the quality. However, Chamberlain Coffee manages to sell its ceremonial matcha powder in the lowest average price tier without sacrificing quality. It doesn't have the rich umami flavor of high-end matcha powders, but it has a balance of sweetness and earthiness, and it blends well. Bags are sold in two sizes, 30 and 60 grams—both of which have handy recipes printed on them. The recommended ratio is 2 grams of matcha (1 teaspoon) for 6 to 8 ounces of milk. Shake, whisk, or blend it. No matter what, it takes just minutes for a delicious matcha latte. I am keeping an accurate measure and not drinking after lunchtime so it hasn't kept me up at night and I certainly haven't had any caffeine jitters from the tea. Fresh Taste - Our matcha not only promotes feel good energy, but also boasts a lovely, delicate green tea matcha flavor with every sipWhilst matcha originated from China centuries ago, the processing there has significantly gone downhill, with most matcha from China these days actually being green tea. This organic option from Natural Bio is one of the best choices for cooking and baking. It's a great one to blend into cakes, smoothies and desserts, with a delicate flavour that isn’t too sweet and will add that signature green colour to your creations! Quality product and amazing customer service very caring and understanding when my product didn’t arrive. I cant get enough of this Matcha powder it is a good quality product and I’ve been using this for months. I have one cup a day and I also add it into my Greek yogurt with a little honey and it tastes great. I have tried lots of different matcha teas, and (in my opinion, obviously) PureChimp is one of, if not *THE*, very best one I have found. Due to the fact that it is grown in the shade, matcha should retain most of the bright green colour found in the tea leaves. If you come across a matcha powder with a much subtler colour, like a dull yellowish-green or even a brownish-green, it is a good indication of a lower-quality product.

A recommendation service that carefully researches each product and consults with experts across many disciplines. Each jar you get contains 50 grams of pure matcha powder, so if you just consume the recommended 1 or 2 cups per day using 1/2 teaspoon per cup, it’ll last you quite a while. It’s best not to pour boiling water into the cup, so let it cool down for a minute or two first. I’ve found that this helps a lot and improves the taste. Getting the right temperature is important for the perfect brew! Enjoying experimenting with the Matcha Tea, so far hot and cold drinks and have discovered that I need to add sweetener, as suggested. Vanilla Syrup seems to hit the mark for me. Matcha naturally contains caffeine, so the vast majority of matcha powders are caffeinated. Some brands sell decaf matcha, but it's uncommon. A serving of matcha contains 40 to 70 milligrams of caffeine on average.Overall I don't have experience of matcha green tea so have nothing to benchmark it again, it doesn't come througbin my juices as a flavour, but I'm pretty happy with that. It does raise my energy levels but doesn't make me feel like the incredible hulk having a cardiac event either so because of that I do recommend this. While some buyers mentioned some trouble with the electric whisk, the customer support offered by Jade Leaf is top-notch. One other thing to take into consideration is that the Modern Matcha Starter Kit does not come with the actual matcha powder. However, a Jade Leaf representative stated that it includes a discount code for their tea. Matcha is a type of green tea that's easy to identify because it comes in powder form. Unlike most teas where the leaves are steeped in water and removed before drinking, with matcha you actually ingest a ground form of the leaf itself. It often has a rich umami flavor, but other tasting notes can include sweetness, bitterness, grassiness, earthiness, nuttiness, and more. Matcha is highly versatile and can be used for drinking purposes as well as a cooking ingredient. Accordingly, matcha is sorted into one of two categories: ceremonial grade and culinary grade. The former is best for tea and lattes, while the latter is better for recipes and baked goods. It’s easy to make iced matcha at home. Most ceremonial matcha powders lend themselves to delicious cold drinks, so there’s no need to buy a special brand or variety if you already have one you prefer.

I’m enjoying the product so much and they have a great policy to give 5% of the profits to charity to help chimps. Great to support an organisation that is using natural and environmentally friendly products. AND some of the profits go to 'Save The Chimps'.

Matcha is a fine, rich powder, that is full of antioxidants. The deep green color is from its high chlorophyll content. A little bit about PureChimp Matcha Green Tea Product And The Brand Ethics One of the most popular and highest-rated options in the culinary category is Jade Leaf's Culinary Matcha. The flavor is rich and earthy, not sweet, and customers describe the powder as versatile and easy to blend. All Jade Leaf products are 100 percent organic and sourced from Japan, with this matcha farmed in the Uji region. It's affordably priced and available in four sizes, starting at 30 grams and working up to 1 pound. The company also prints handy recipes on its bags for easy-to-make matcha treats. Classic grade matcha is probably the most commonly found, especially in the UK. It has a relatively strong and distinct flavour, but it is a little bitter, making it versatile for use in both drinking and cooking.
