Questions & answers
How is ceremonial matcha different from regular matcha?
It is made from the youngest leaves and milled finer. The taste is softer and sweeter, so it is drunk with water, without milk or sugar.
How should I store matcha?
In a closed tin, in the fridge or a cool dark place. Once opened, it is best finished within 2–3 months.
How much matcha do I need for one cup?
About 2 grams. A 30 g tin makes roughly 15 cups.
Do I need a whisk?
A bamboo whisk gives the best foam. For lattes a shaker or small milk frother also works.
How much caffeine is in a cup?
Roughly 60–70 mg per 2 grams, less than a large coffee. If you are pregnant or sensitive to caffeine, ask your doctor.
