While matcha is often promoted for its high level of catechin and the fact that you drink the whole leaf, in fact on average matcha has less catechin (antioxidants) than unshaded green tea because the shading in tea leaf meant for matcha limits the amount of catechin produced in order to reduce the bitterness of the matcha.

Compared to the 50 - 70 mg of catechin per gram of matcha, this organic green tea powder product from Mitsui Meicha (one of the largest producers of tea in Japan after Ito En) has 136 mg per gram, about 5400 mg per 40g bag.

Sakura leaf powder and matcha blend. The flavor and aroma of sakura mochi is generated by a component called coumarin present in both leaf and to a lesser extent in the blossom. Salt-pickling (see the salt-pickled sakura blossoms) brings out this flavor and aroma, but Kanes Tea Factory uses tea production techniques on the sakura leaves to do create the same flavor without salt-pickling.

This Hojicha powder for baking from Obubu is simply a powdered form of the well-known roasted Japanese tea, hojicha. It has a naturally sweet taste and a pleasantly earthy/woody aroma. How is hojicha powder used in Japan? Like matcha powder (which you may be more familiar with), you can use it in ice cream, pudding, to make baked goods such as cookies, cakes, donuts, etc... yes, there is always room for creativity! Although it may not be common overseas, in Japan, you will see some cafes serve it as hojicha latte drinks.

Tencha is the name of the leaf used to make matcha. It is generally made by shading to prevent the leaf from becoming bitter (reducing sunlight prevents catechin from building up as the leaf grows), then steaming, drying without rolling, and finally refining into flakes.
\n
The Okumidori cultivar is well-known as a good cultivar for high grade sencha,gyokuro, tencha/matcha. It is known for its deep, dark green color.
\n
Grade: This particular would like be ground into a Premium Ceremonial Grade matcha if made commercially.
\n
You can enjoy this tencha as a tea, or attempt to grind it yourself. Note that commercial level stone mills as well as pulverization machines can create very fine grain matcha powder (5 microns at the highest quality, 15-25 microns for lower quality matcha). Grinding on your own with a handheld grinder or even a coffee grinder will probably not reach the higher quality levels, but 20-30 microns may be possible depending on your grinder.
\n
\n
Steeping recommendation as tea \n
\n
There is no one recommended method to steep tencha since it's not commonly consumed as tea, but we recommend you start with standard sencha steeping and then adjust the parameters to preference: 3 grams of tencha, steeped for 2 minutes in 200 ml of 70C/160F degree water.
\n
Use hotter temperature to extract more astringency and bitterness, cooler temperature for more sweetness. Use more leaves or less water for stronger flavor.
\n
Cold steeping: I also recommend cold steeping 5g / 500 ml of water in the refrigerator overnight: 8-12 hours.
