GotMatcha Ceremonial Matcha A 80g

Ceremonial: A balanced and versatile first harvest matcha with mild umami and natural sweetness, harvested from the most nutrient-dense top leaves to provide calm and focused energy.

Got Matcha Ceremonial – The standard-setter for true quality

There are few formal rules for using the term "ceremonial matcha," which means the quality on the market varies greatly. Got Matcha Ceremonial defines what a true ceremonial grade should be: a pure product from the first harvest, grown with precision to ensure both taste and nutritional content.

From the top shoots in Kirishima

The quality of matcha is largely determined by which leaves are harvested and how they have grown.

• Only the top leaves: This blend consists exclusively of the 6–7 uppermost leaves on the tea bush. This is where the concentration of L-theanine and antioxidants (EGCG) is at its highest. The further down the plant one harvests, the more bitter the taste and lower the nutritional content.

• Natural shade-growing: Growing at an altitude of 1600 meters in Kirishima, the plants benefit from natural fog that shields them from the sun. This natural shading process in the last few weeks before harvest is crucial for developing the characteristic sweetness and deep green color.

• Volcanic soil: The soil in Kirishima is managed according to organic farming principles by a fourth-generation tea farmer. The absence of pesticides is confirmed by a rich ecosystem of beneficial insects that act as the farm's natural guardians.

High nutritional content and pure taste

Got Matcha Ceremonial delivers an L-theanine level of between 24–30 mg per serving, which is significantly higher than many other brands on the market. This ensures the balanced energy and mild umami taste that makes this matcha work just as well on its own as in a rich latte.
