Tag: Matcha grades explained

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.

Matcha, a powdered green tea from Japan, is a celebrated beverage with a history spanning centuries. The grading system for matcha, while not officially regulated, helps distinguish products based on quality, taste, and use. Ujido offers multiple grades of matcha, from pure ceremonial to culinary blends, to suit different needs.
