Have you ever tried Matcha Green Tea?

by Tricia

Do you drink green tea?

I enjoy a cup of green tea every now and then, but I don’t drink it as often as I probably should. Green tea is virtually caffeine free, and it contains an antioxidant (epigallocatechin-3 gallate ( EGCG )). Antioxidants are of course beneficial to our health, and unfortunately black teas do not contain antioxidants.

I usually purchase my green tea in the grocery store, but I think I might buy some online through O-Cha.com as they sell some of the finest green tea on the market. Also, green tea has more flavor when it is kept fresh. Most of the green teas that you can purchase in grocery stores are not sealed in a way to keep them as fresh and therefore as flavorful as they should be.

O-Cha.com also sells a form of powdered green tea called Uji Matcha which I have included a picture of above. I’ve never tried green tea in this form and I’d love to compare this high quality form of Matcha to the other forms of green tea that I’ve used in the past.

I have a feeling that once I do try some of the fresh products from this Japanese tea company that I won’t be going back to the other forms I’ve purchased in the past.

To learn more about Green tea and it’s beneficial health properties visit O-Cha.com.
