Few people know that the current practice of drinking powdered green tea in the Japanese tea ceremony is actually from the song dynasty in china. It dates back to over 1, 000 years ago. This practice was carried on to japan and is now considered a pillar of Japanese culture.Today, once again high-quality Matcha is being made in China. This tea has a slightly different character than its Japanese counterpart. Both teas have a deep green color and a thick, savory taste and texture. Both are high in EGCG and antioxidants. However, our Chinese MatchaDNA is smoother, and it has a rich, smooth and fresh taste unlike any other. Our teas are also tested in independent laboratories for Lead and heavy metals and pass the tests with flying colors!
