Matcha is not just one type as some might think, but a wide world of grades, flavors and specifications that reflect the quality of Japanese agriculture and meticulous preparation.
Choosing the right type of matcha depends on the purpose of use: Do you want a luxurious cup for relaxation? Or an everyday matcha for energy and focus?
In this article, we will review together the most important types of matcha so that you can choose what suits your taste and needs.
Premium Matcha (Ceremonial Grade)
This type is the highest quality among all types of matcha.
It is used in traditional Japanese tea ceremonies and is prepared from the first young tea leaves of the season, giving it a smooth, rich taste and a bright green color.
Premium matcha is characterized by being virtually free of bitterness and containing a high percentage of amino acids.
For those seeking a refined experience and a complete taste, try Kiwami Matcha 40g.
Which expresses Japanese purity in all its details.
Daily Matcha
Matcha is suitable for everyday use, it has a balanced taste and an affordable price, and can be used in hot or cold drinks.
It is an excellent choice for those who wish to add matcha to their morning routine or while working for natural energy and sustained focus.
For a smooth and light daily cup, we recommend trying our premium daily matcha 100g
Which combines quality and flavor, perfect for everyday life.
Culinary Grade Matcha
This type is used in cooking, making sweets and juices, and its taste is slightly stronger than premium matcha.
This matcha adds a beautiful natural color and distinctive flavor to recipes such as pancakes, cakes, or milkshakes.
Although it is less expensive than matcha intended for drinking, it is still rich in antioxidants.
Flavored Matcha
Recently, innovative types of flavored matcha have become popular to suit different tastes, such as vanilla or caramel matcha.
These varieties offer a unique experience that combines classic taste with modern flavors.
For those who prefer a soft touch and light sweetness, you can try the Matcha Hikari Vanilla available at Mo Matcha, which blends authentic Japanese flavor with the aroma of natural vanilla.
