Perfect Match-A!

Have you heard about winter’s stand-out superfood?

Not all tea is created equal. If you need proof, try a cup of matcha. This Japanese tea is made using whole green tea leaves, which have been dried and ground to a high-quality tea powder. Don't expect the familiar flavour of tea - it's earthy and slightly bitter at first, becoming sweeter as you drink.

With a history as rich as its flavour, matcha dates back to the ninth century, and the ritual around preparing and serving this delicate drink is a precious cultural practice. Matcha tea ceremonies reflect the Japanese principles of harmony, respect, purity and tranquillity, and accompany special events.
