Jade Mist is our ceremonial grade matcha - a finely stone-ground green tea powder that represents the pinnacle of Japanese tea craftsmanship. This isn't culinary-grade matcha for baking; this is the real deal, crafted for traditional preparation and mindful enjoyment.

What Makes Ceremonial Grade Special:

Ceremonial grade matcha comes from the youngest, most tender tea leaves, shade-grown for 3-4 weeks before harvest to boost chlorophyll and amino acid content. The leaves are carefully selected, steamed, dried, and stone-ground into an ultra-fine powder that dissolves completely in water, creating a smooth, frothy tea with no bitterness.

Flavor Experience:

Jade Mist offers a complex flavor profile that's both refined and approachable. The first sip reveals natural sweetness and umami (savory) notes, followed by a smooth, creamy texture and a clean, lingering finish. The vibrant jade-green color indicates freshness and high chlorophyll content.
