There are many things that taste Matcha, such as drinks in beverage stores, cakes in cake rooms and coffee in coffee shops. Matcha is not only fresh in color, but also has a refreshing smell. Therefore, many people like Matcha very much. Matcha is actually a kind of tea. It is a green powdery substance, although it is common, But many people don't know what Matcha is made of. Is it "green tea powder"? Most people pretend to understand. Today I'll bring you to understand.

 

Matcha is very popular in Japan. In fact, many people don't know. It originated from China, originated in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and later introduced into Japan. After Japanese research and improvement, it has become something in their place. In many people's hearts, Matcha is "green tea powder". I tell you here that it's not. There is a big difference between the two.

 

Green tea powder is made by directly grinding green tea into powder. During the production, it is roasted and then ground with metal machinery. The powder particles are relatively thick, and the taste is bitter. Matcha pays special attention to the production, and the production process is particularly troublesome, which can not be compared with green tea powder.

 

Making Matcha powder requires four different and strict processes. First, plant trees. The high-end Matcha is a variety tree cultivated in Japan. It has the characteristics of high chlorophyll, amino acid, protein and low caffeine content. Not all tree species can make Matcha, and then carry out cultivation. The cultivation management of Matcha garden is mainly characterized by covering and shading, Fresh tea must be covered 20 days before picking, which can bring different quality.

 

Then steam green tea and finally grind it. When grinding Matcha, pure natural graphite needs to be used. Fully dry steamed green tea is slowly ground into fine powder at low temperature, which is time-consuming and laborious. Therefore, the price of high-quality Matcha powder is much more expensive than that of green tea powder.

 

After reading it, do many people have a deeper understanding of Matcha and stop using green tea powder as Matcha? It will make a joke to say so!
