CEREMONIAL GRADE MATCHA

Yes 100%. Our ceremonial grade matcha offers clean, sustained energy from natural caffeine paired with L-theanine, which promotes calm focus without the jitters or crash of coffee. It supports mental clarity, metabolism, and mood—making it a powerful yet gentle upgrade to your morning ritual. Think of it as energy, elevated.

Teamantra’s matcha is smooth, naturally sweet, and rich with umami. Because we use ceremonial grade matcha from Uji, Japan, you’ll notice a vibrant green color and a clean, mellow flavor—no bitterness, no chalky aftertaste. It’s designed to be savored, not masked. Our AWAKEN and GLOW blends are elevated with subtle notes of yuzu-honeydew or lychee-jasmine, turning your daily cup into a delicious ritual you’ll actually look forward to. Even if you’ve tried matcha before and found it too grassy or harsh—this is a whole new experience.

Our premium cermonial grade matcha is sourced from Uji, Japan and is among the cleanest, purest organic matcha available. It’s rigorously screened for heavy metals, toxic mold, radioactive isotopes, and pesticides.

While both come from the same plant (Camellia sinensis), matcha and green tea are not the same. Matcha is made from shade-grown tea leaves that are carefully stone-ground into a fine powder—meaning you’re consuming the whole leaf, not just an infusion. This makes matcha significantly higher in antioxidants, L-theanine, and caffeine, offering a more potent energy and wellness boost. Green tea is brewed like a regular tea bag and has a lighter flavor and lower nutrient content. With matcha, you're getting calm focus, clean energy, and glowing skin benefits in every sip—especially when it’s ceremonial grade like ours, sourced from Uji, Japan. Think of it as green tea, elevated.

Ceremonial-grade matcha is the highest drinking grade of matcha, made from the first-flush, shade-grown buds of Camellia sinensis. The young leaves are steamed to stop oxidation, then de-stemmed and de-veined (becoming tencha) and stone-milled into an ultra-fine powder. The result is a vivid jade green, silky texture, and a sweet, umami-forward flavor with minimal bitterness—designed to be whisked and enjoyed straight (traditional usucha/koicha) or as a clean latte.

From an energy standpoint, a typical 2 g (≈1 tsp) serving provides ~55–75 mg caffeine—about an espresso—paired with naturally high L-theanine, which many people experience as calm, steady focus rather than the spikes and dips common with coffee.

By contrast, culinary grade is milled from more mature leaves, tastes more astringent, and is formulated for baking or smoothies—not for pure drinking.
