Before you shop for the best matcha powders, here&#8217;s what you should know first. While matcha is found and used in popular recipes and beverages today (if you type in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/search\/pins\/?q=matcha%20recipes&amp;rs=sitelinks_searchbox\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/search\/pins\/?q=matcha%20recipes&amp;rs=sitelinks_searchbox\">&#8220;matcha recipes&#8221; in Pinterest<\/a>, you&#8217;d get thousands of entries from all over the web), it&#8217;s long been a staple in Japanese, Chinese, and Korean culture with traces of its presence dating back centuries (it&#8217;s believed that Buddhist monk <a href=\"https:\/\/www.matchaful.com\/pages\/the-history-of-matcha\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener sponsored\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.matchaful.com\/pages\/the-history-of-matcha\">Myoan Eisai<\/a> discovered matcha in China and brought it back to Japan in 1191).<\/p>\n<p>The flavor profile of matcha can be characterized as being rich with notes of bitterness or sweetness, making it ideal for cooking or baking. But matcha goes beyond its good looks; it&#8217;s a form of green tea that has a plethora of health benefits. For starters, it&#8217;s rich in antioxidants and is regarded by anti-aging experts as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/matcha-longevity\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/matcha-longevity\/\">one of the healthiest drinks in the world<\/a>.

Usually around September to October.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Spring and summer-harvested tea leaves are shade-grown, which results in fresh, nutritious and umami-filled tea leaves and matcha,&#8221; says Tsukada. &#8220;This is because when matcha is shade-grown, it sustains L-theanine (an amino acid) of the green tea leaves.&#8221; Autumn-harvested tea leaves, however, are usually not shade-grown, resulting in a more bitter flavor.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thus, spring-harvest leaves with the highest quality will be used for tea ceremonies (what is referred to as &#8216;ceremonial grade&#8217; <span class=\"il\">matcha<\/span>), whereas <span class=\"il\">matcha<\/span> from autumn-harvested tea leaves are likely to be used for baking or cooking (what is referred to as &#8216;culinary-grade&#8217; <span class=\"il\">matcha<\/span>),&#8221; Tsukada adds. So to boil that all down: If you&#8217;re looking for high-quality matcha to brew as tea, shoot for spring harvest (or summer harvest, as a second choice), and if you want matcha for cooking and baking, an autumn harvest batch will do just fine.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_1064701\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1064701\" style=\"width: 1300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1064701 js-inline-lazy-load\" alt=\"best matcha powders\" width=\"1300\" height=\"1733\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/IMG_4048_falsexfalse_true_70.webp\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1064701\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Author<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<h3>Sourcing region<\/h3>\n<p>One indicator for matcha quality is looking at the sourcing region. You&#8217;ll want to look for &#8220;single-origin&#8221; matcha. What this basically means is that matcha is sourced from one producer and remains unaltered. Tsukada adds that some of the most famous regions for single-origin teas are Uji, Kyoto, and Kagoshima.<\/p>\n<h3>Container<\/h3>\n<p>Matcha&#8217;s biggest threat is oxygen\u2014which can oxidize the key nutrients and vitamins. Therefore, having an airtight container will come in handy for storing matcha powder. You&#8217;ll also want to avoid a see-through container, as sunlight can diminish the bright green color of your matcha. Remember, a dark container keeps the oxidation away.<\/p>\n<p><figure id=\"attachment_1064703\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1064703\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1064703 js-inline-lazy-load\" alt=\"best matcha powders\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/IMG_5420_falsexfalse_true_70.webp\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1064703\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo: Author<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How to prepare matcha<\/h2>\n<p>Making matcha is a process, so here&#8217;s what you need to know. Grab your bamboo tea ladle to scoop a serving or two of matcha powder into a bowl. While it&#8217;s not required, sifting the matcha powder can change the consistency from grainy and thin to soft and frothy. Then, you&#8217;ll want to pour water into a tea bowl. Tsukada recommends cold or lukewarm water to ensure that the qualities of the matcha are fully preserved. &#8220;If you prefer to use hot water, use water no hotter than 175 degrees Fahrenheit, the temperature used for whisking matcha in a traditional bowl,&#8221; he says.

Made from organic tencha leaves from Uji, Japan, Encha\u2019s matcha powder produces a creamy and frothy texture, making it perfect for whipping up lattes. What\u2019s great about this matcha is that the leaves are handpicked, and it\u2019s slightly sweet, so there\u2019s no need for extra sweetener (unless you really want it!). To drink, mix one teaspoon of powder into your choice of milk and mix.
