                                Matcha is made from the same plant as green tea, but with approximately 10 times the antioxidant content. A common misconception, however, is that only high-end ceremonial grade matcha contains caffeine. The truth is that all true matcha, including food or culinary grade, has caffeine due to its unique cultivation and processing methods.
