Not all matcha is created equal. The grade determines flavor, color, and nutritional content.
The highest quality matcha made from the youngest tea leaves. Vibrant green color, smooth umami flavor with natural sweetness. Perfect for traditional whisking. This is what Nissei Organic offers.
High-quality matcha suitable for both drinking and cooking. Slightly less vibrant than ceremonial grade but still delivers excellent flavor and health benefits.
Designed for cooking and baking. Stronger, more robust flavor that holds up well when mixed with other ingredients. Less expensive but lower antioxidant content.
