Brand: Pantenger

Pantenger Organic Matcha is brimming with powerful antioxidants to detoxify the body, calm the mind, boost the immune system, and burn fat. Drink Leopard Matcha for healthy-looking skin, sharper focus, and unbeaten stress relief. Source of antioxidants: At the plantation which grows the leaves destined to be ground into matcha, the tea plants are kept in shade for two to three weeks before the first flush of spring. This absence of light multiplies the amount of antioxidants and polyphenols in the tea leaves. Compared to green tea, matcha powder contains much more EGCG, a natural antioxidant that combats free radicals which are the main cause of skin aging and inflammation associated with the oxidative stress. Promotes mental alertness and calm: Used for more than seven hundred years by the Japanese to hone their focus and stay awake during meditation, Matcha contains L-theanine, an amino acid also found in green tea. Leopard Matcha can also help reduce appetite and increase fat burning during exercise. Pantenger Matcha is: USDA Organic, Non-GMO, Kosher. Te macha. Brewing a perfect cup: A great cup of tea requires three elements: great tea, water and a tea master (you). Use the correct dose: 1/3 of a teaspoon is enough to start with. A larger quantity will make your matcha bitter. A well prepared cup of matcha is creamy and sweet. Water: add a little bit of water and whisk until any lumps dissolve (matcha particles are extremely small). Add more water up to 3 FL OZ and keep whisking making W’s, not circles, until it is frothy. Using the right water temperature (160 F to 170 F) will extract the matcha sweet soluble components such as L-theanine. Using a higher temperature will bring a high amount of the bitter and astringent components to your cup such as caffeine and catechins. The traditional matcha whisk and bowl are desirable but not mandatory to start. If you enjoy Matcha you can then obtain them.

• Pantenger Matcha Green Tea Powder Ceremonial Grade is organically grown in Kagoshima Prefecture by a ninth-generation family-owned tea estate that has accumulated over 250 years of artisan expertise.
• The tea leaves are grown under shade for three weeks before the first flush of spring, leaves are hand picked, then powdered using traditional granite stone mills. The “First Flush of Spring” is the first harvest of the year, and the leaves contain three times more L-theanine than the second or summer harvest. Pantenger Matcha powder contains high levels of antioxidants and amino acids.
• The 20 days of shade force the plant to overproduce chlorophyll, which is what makes the matcha tea powder a vibrant emerald green. Low quality matcha is pale and yellowish. Pantenger Matcha Ceremonial Grade is milled using granite stone mills. The result is a silky texture.
• The L-theanine produced by an excess of chlorophyll gives Pantenger Green Tea Matcha a sweet taste and aroma of fresh grass. Low quality matcha tends to be bitter and astringent.
• Pantenger Ceremonial Matcha is supplied in airtight tins to protect the tea from oxidation. We hope the natural harmony of our tins and the purity of our matcha will invite you to take a moment of your day to hold your own tea ceremony and enjoy quality time.
