Matcha lovers or those special matchas who want to try a different and rare flavor profile.

We already know that the effect of caffeine in tea is accompanied by L-theanine, which relaxes us. Still, keep in mind that a cup of matcha contains about 34mg of caffeine per gram, although it can reach 44mg in the highest quality matchas like this one. More caffeine, but also more L-theanine.

  • Ingredients:100% Japanese green tea (Camellia sinensis),Yame Saemidori matcha.

  • Allergens:none.No additives or flavors.

 
  • Due to the prolonged shading of Yame and the richness in amino acids. Additionally, the Saemidori cultivar contributes to that flavor.

  • Keep the can tightly closed, away from light and in a cool place.
