Spotlight on matcha tea
Green tea, Sencha, Gunpowder, Genmaicha... no matter where your green tea comes from, it is very likely that they all have more or less the same properties and virtues. Is matcha powder significantly different? Matcha's high catechin content, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), is said to make this green tea a little more beneficial for your immune system. In fact, this powerful antioxidant is present in matcha in much larger quantities than in other green teas. Great news for lovers of matcha lattes or matcha ice cream.
