Matcha: Characters, History & Applications

Matcha (/ˈmætʃə, ˈmɑːtʃə/ ⓘ; Japanese: 抹茶) is a finely ground powder of green tea specially processed from shade-grown tea leaves. Shade growing gives matcha its characteristic bright green color and strong umami flavor. Matcha is typically consumed suspended in hot water.
