Matcha in DFRNT.: The Traditional Green Tea that Revolutionizes Your Routine
Matcha is a special variety of green tea characterized by its vibrant emerald color, an umami flavor profile, and multiple health benefits. At DFRNT. we ensure to offer you a carefully sourced matcha, processed with artisanal methods that preserve all its properties and its authentic flavor.
Origin and Production Process
Matcha comes from the Camellia sinensis plant, subjected to a shading process that increases the chlorophyll and amino acid content in the leaves. After harvesting, they are steamed, allowed to dry, and then slowly ground with granite stones until they become an ultra-fine powder. This meticulous method ensures its unmistakable aroma, intense color, and high nutrient content.
Benefits and Properties
One of the reasons why matcha has gained popularity is its high concentration of catechins and L-theanine, compounds that help improve concentration and mood without causing spikes of nervousness. Its powerful antioxidant action helps combat free radicals, promoting greater cellular protection and overall well-being.
How to Prepare the Perfect Matcha
1. Sift a teaspoon of matcha into a bowl to eliminate any possible lumps.
2. Heat water to about 70-80 °C (avoid boiling to preserve the properties of the tea).
3. Pour the water slowly over the matcha.
4. Whisk vigorously with a chasen (bamboo whisk) making "W" shaped movements until a smooth foam forms.
5. Enjoy your matcha instantly to appreciate its fresh and balanced flavor.
