"Although drinking matcha is a tradition that was started centuries ago, it is quickly becoming more popular among modern day consumers," said Ryo Katayama Pranatio, director of Eco Heed. "In fact, this year it was hailed by Bon Appetit magazine as the next big thing in tea."

Eco Matcha is made from nutrient-rich young tea leaves that are sorted for grade, steamed, stemmed and de-vined before being dried and stone-ground into a fine powder. To prepare the tea, the powder can be whisked in a bowl with hot water to make a frothy beverage. Eco Matcha can also be used to make lattes, smoothies, sauces or pastries to increase their nutritional value.
For tea drinkers new to the matcha lifestyle, a variety of matcha recipes are now available on their site. Favorites include a matcha mint iced tea, a matcha milkshake and a matcha latte that can be served hot or cold.
"Drinking matcha is poised to become a common ritual among health-conscious consumers," said Pranatio. "The tea can be used to help reduce cholesterol, improve health, boost energy, improve memory and concentration and burn calories. It is essential for anyone adopting or maintaining a healthy lifestyle."
