What is matcha?
Matcha is a finely ground green tea powder, which is made from tea plant leaves. Unlike regular tea, matcha is not steeped, but is mixed in water – and thus the entire tea leaf is drunk.
Active substances and effects
Matcha contains caffeine, but thanks to the amino acid L-theanine, caffeine is released gradually - alertness without nervousness and without an “energy crash” after the effect wears off.
L-theanine supports alpha waves in the brain - a feeling of calm concentration, often described as “relaxed energy”.
Matcha is rich in catechins (especially EGCG) – powerful antioxidants that help protect cells from oxidative stress.
It has a high chlorophyll content because the leaves grow in the shade – it helps neutralise free radicals and supports antioxidant processes.
Properties
Moya Matcha Traditional is a high-quality green tea from Japan. It is obtained in the 1st and 2nd harvest from tea plants that are specially shaded from direct sunlight. The result is a higher content of chlorophyll and L-theanine and a richer, greener colour. Fresh leaves are then harvested, dried and ground into powder. Moya Matcha Traditional has a balanced rich bittersweet flavour and a creamy texture.
