●抹茶とは何？
抹茶とは、柔らかい茶葉の新芽を摘み取り、蒸気で蒸した後、
「炉」と呼ばれる独特な乾燥機で乾燥させた、碾茶(テンチャ)
という物を、茎、葉脈を取り除き、石うすで挽き、
粉末化したものをいいます。
●お茶(煎茶)と抹茶の違いは？
煎茶はお湯で煎じて飲み茶殻を捨てるため、
緑茶に含まれている有効成分の約20％しか取れません。
抹茶は粉末状に挽いたお茶の葉そのものを飲むので、
お茶のもつ有効成分を100％摂取できます。

●What is Matcha?
Matcha is powdered green tea made from Ten-cha.
Ten-cha is obtained by steaming young soft tea leaves and drying them in a special dehydrator called "Ro".
After removing stems and leaf veins, Ten-cha is grounded to a powder using a grindstone.
●What is the difference between green tea (Sen-cha) and Matcha?
Sen-cha is made by brewing tea leaves in hot water and the ingestion rate of its active ingredients is only 20%.
On the other hand, Matcha is made by dissolving powdered tea leaves in hot water and thus, its active ingredients can be ingested 100%.
●What is the organic tea?
Our Matcha uses organic tea leaves.

●What is green tea?
Green tea is green powdered tea. Soft and fresh top tea leaves are hand-picked, which are then steamed and dried in ro (a special furnace) to make tencha tea leaves. The stems and veins of tencha tea leaves are eliminated and further ground by so called "chausu" (a set of millstones for tea leaves) to make green powdered tea.
●How does green powdered tea differ from green tea?
●Green tea is infused in hot water to make the beverage and the tea leaves are discarded. By this method, you only take 20% of the active ingredients in the green tea. On the other hand, the green tea powder is mixed with hot water and therefore the leaf itself is included in the beverage. Therefore you can take 100% of the active ingredients in the tea.
●What is organic tea?
We use only organic tea leaves to produce the powdered green tea.
