Key Information & Ingredients

• Ingredients: Green tea (Sencha) and Matcha. 100% Japanese tea leaves. 

• Tea Bag Details: 1.5 g per bag; nylon filter bags designed to allow good water flow during steeping. 

• Origin: Product of Japan. Blended under Japanese tea tradition (steamed leaves, minimal oxidation to preserve fresh green colour and aroma).

Taste Profile & Usage

• Flavour Notes: Mildly grassy, sweet, with vegetal undertones and a hint of matcha creaminess. Less bitter than many basic green teas. 

• Brew Suggestions:

  • Hot: water around 80-82 °C (≈ 176-179 °F), steep for ~30 seconds to 1 minute; avoid boiling to reduce bitterness.

  • Cold brew: soak one tea bag in cold water for a longer period (4-6 hours) for a refreshing iced version.

Nutrition & Wellness Highlights

• Low calories: Virtually 0 kcal per serving.

• Caffeine: Moderate—green tea with matcha typically contains less caffeine than coffee but more than some herbal teas.

• Antioxidants: Matcha adds higher levels of catechins (especially EGCG) compared to regular green tea; it may offer benefits for alertness, metabolism, and oxidative stress.
