Moya Matcha: An Overview
What is Matcha?
Matcha is powdered green tea obtained from tea plants that are specially shaded from direct sunlight before harvest. This results in higher chlorophyll and antioxidant contents and a richer, greener color. After harvesting the fresh leaves are steamed, dried and ground to powder in traditional mills. Contrary to regular brewed tea, when drinking matcha, we consume the entire tea leaf and this way we supply our body all nutrients contained in tea.
Where is Matcha from?
Matcha has been part of the Japanese tradition for over 800 years as an inseparable element of the tea ceremony and a popular ingredient of drinks and pastries. In XXI century, thanks to extensive research, it was rediscovered as a superfood with qualities exceptionally beneficial to human health. Moya Matcha is meticulously cultivated on small family-owned organic tea fields in Uji, Japan, a region known for the highest quality of green tea. It is then processed locally, hermetically packaged and dispatched in small batches to assure peak freshness.
Moya Matcha Co-Founder
Hi, as the co-founder of Moya Matcha, I have the gestures of a true tea-master that are slow and precise and that is the way I produce Moya Matcha. I love to hear stories of how our matcha is becoming a part of daily ritual for many Europeans. These small routines - I find them important for our everyday life and they are the essence of Japanese culture. ~ Hitomi Saito
Health Benefits - The Matcha Effect
Boosts Energy
The samurai warriors drank matcha as a natural energy drink when they headed out on expeditions. A cup of matcha contains half the caffeine of a cup of coffee but, thanks to L-theanine, its effects last for much longer. Matcha helps us concentrate and boosts energy but does not lead to the jittering effects associated with coffee. In addition, catechins contained in matcha have antibiotic qualities which strengthen our immune system.
Burns calories
Matcha accelerates our metabolism and helps burn excessive fat. Contrary to many weight loss diets, matcha is a natural supplement and has no known side-effects. According to research people drinking matcha regularly have lower levels of bad LDL cholesterol and higher levels of good HDL cholesterol.
Relaxes
Buddhist monks have been using matcha for over 800 years to stay alert and concentrated during long hours of meditation. Today we know that this effect is triggered by L-theanine, an amino acid contained in tea leaves used for matcha production. L-theanine enhances the production of alpha waves in the human brain, which leads to improved focus and the effect of relaxation.
The Most Powerful Natural Antioxidant
Above is a comparison of antioxidant content in ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity):
Antioxidants prevent the negative effects of the so-called free radicals on cells in our body. Antioxidants are the bodys defense agents: they make us feel younger, prevent aging and chronic diseases. You can find them in fresh fruits and vegetables but matcha contains the highest concentration of antioxidants of all natural sources including all superfoods.
One cup of matcha is equal to 10 cups of regular green tea in terms of antioxidant and nutritional intake. Thats because when you drink matcha, you ingest the entire leaf and all its nutrients. For this reason, it is important to drink organic matcha which doesnt contain any pesticide residue.
