Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I prepare matcha?

A: Matcha can be prepared in a number of ways, but the most traditional method involves whisking 2g of powder with 90ml/3oz of hot water at 80°/170°F to create a frothy, creamy beverage. There are many different tools and techniques for preparing matcha, so we recommend experimenting until you find the method that works best for you.

Q: How much matcha should I use per serving?

A: We recommend using approximately 2 grams (or one teaspoon) of matcha per serving. However, this can vary depending on personal taste preferences and the specific recipe you are using.

Q: Is there caffeine in matcha?

A: Yes, each serving contains a moderate amount of caffeine that can provide a gentle and sustained energy boost without the jitters or crashes associated with other sources of caffeine especially coffee. Matcha has less caffeine than coffee but provides a more sustained energy boost.

Q: How should I store my matcha?

A: To preserve the freshness and flavor of your matcha, we recommend storing it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened, matcha should be consumed within a few weeks for best results. Putting it in a fridge will keep your matcha fresh (and its umami taste) longer.
