Matcha tea preparation
After some practice, matcha tea is prepared in no time. It serves not only as a pure delight but also opens the door to many other creative recipes.
1. Sift
Sift 2 grams of matcha (about 1 teaspoon) carefully into a bowl to prevent clumping.
2. Heating up
Pour about 70 ml of hot water. It should no longer be boiling to protect the Matcha.
3. Stirring
Whisk matcha and water with a Chasen in Z-shaped movements for about 20 seconds.
4. Enjoy
As soon as a creamy foam forms, enjoy the tea or use it for creations like Matcha Latte.
Frequently Asked Questions
Your questions are important to us. To assist you in the best possible way, we have compiled a selection of the most frequently asked questions here.
Is the shipping free?
Yes, with us every order that contains a matcha is free of shipping costs.
How long does it take to receive my order?

What if I don't like the taste?

Therefore, you can test our Matcha within 30 days. If you do not like it, simply send it back. We will then refund your purchase price.
How do I recognize quality Matcha?
- The color should be bright and vibrant green. A yellowish or brownish hue indicates lower quality.
- A fresh smell with a sweet note. If the Matcha smells musty or very bitter, it is of lower quality.
- In terms of taste, a good Matcha convinces with a sweet and mild note.
- Other signs can be an organic certification, an exceptionally fine consistency, as well as a higher price.

Why does high-quality matcha form clumps?
Interestingly, clumps in matcha are not a sign of inferior quality. In fact, high-quality matcha, which is ground very finely, tends to form clumps even with minimal moisture. Lower-quality matcha, which tends to be ground coarser, shows this tendency less strongly.
To prevent clumping in matcha, it is recommended to sift the matcha powder through a fine sieve before preparation.
