Pure Matcha Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder — 30g Tin, Stone-Ground, Authentic Nishio Flavor

Pure Matcha Co Ceremonial Grade Matcha is a 30g tin of authentic, stone-ground Japanese matcha from Nishio, crafted for traditional tea preparation and modern beverages. Sourced and produced in Nishio, Japan, this 30g (1.06oz) tin contains first-harvest, shade-grown leaves stone-ground into a vivid green powder and sealed airtight to lock in freshness. Designed for both newcomers and seasoned matcha fans, the flavor balances umami, gentle vegetal notes, and a subtle sweetness suitable for usucha (thin matcha), hot or iced lattes, and culinary uses where authentic ceremonial matcha is preferred.

What makes this matcha "ceremonial grade" and different from culinary powders?

Ceremonial grade matcha is made from the youngest, most tender tea leaves from the top of the plant, stone-ground slowly to preserve aroma and color. Pure Matcha Co sources first-harvest leaves and processes them in Nishio to deliver a refined texture and delicate taste meant for drinking rather than heavy mixing in recipes.

• First-harvest, shade-grown leaves for a sweeter umami profile.
• Stone-ground to keep fine, smooth texture and bright color.
• Sealed airtight tin to maintain freshness and prevent oxidation.
• Intended for whisked preparations (usucha) and light beverages.

How should I prepare Pure Matcha Co for the best results?

For the smoothest cup, sift a small amount of matcha into a bowl, add a little hot water (not boiling), and whisk briskly in an M or W motion until frothy. The tin includes a preparation guide; a bamboo chasen or an electric whisk gives the best texture compared with stirring with a spoon.

• Use about 1–2 grams (half to one teaspoon) per serving for usucha.
• Water temperature around 70–80°C (158–176°F) prevents bitterness.
• Whisk 15–30 seconds for a creamy froth; use a sifter to avoid clumps.
• Try iced lattes by dissolving with a little hot water, then adding milk and ice.

What flavor and sensory experience can I expect from this matcha?

Pure Matcha Co presents a smooth, balanced profile with pronounced umami, mild vegetal notes, and a touch of natural sweetness. The fine stone-ground texture creates a creamy mouthfeel when whisked properly, and the bright green color signals fresh, well-preserved leaf quality.

• Umami-forward taste with gentle sweetness and light vegetal accents.
• Creamy texture when whisked, not gritty or chalky.
• Vivid green hue indicating careful shading and processing.
• Clean finish suitable for traditional sipping or light lattes.

How is Pure Matcha Co packaged and stored to keep quality?

The matcha is packaged in a compact 30g tin that is sealed airtight to reduce exposure to light and oxygen. Proper storage—cool, dry, and away from direct sunlight—helps preserve aroma and color; refrigeration after opening is recommended for longer shelf life.

• 30g (1.06oz) airtight tin for freshness preservation.
• Compact size ideal for trying ceremonial matcha or travel use.
• Store in a cool, dry place; refrigerate after opening for best results.
