I’m enjoying the product so much and they have a great policy to give 5% of the profits to charity to help chimps. Matcha is a fine, rich powder, that is full of antioxidants. The deep green color is from its high chlorophyll content. A little bit about PureChimp Matcha Green Tea Product And The Brand Ethics We've used Pure chimp Matcha powder for a long time (about 4 years) and we (my husband, 9 year old daughter and I) love it. It's got a really below gentle flavour with no bitterness. My husband has it with water and I make myself an oat milk matcha latte in my velvetiser every morning. Highly recommend!

The most common style of matcha tea is usucha, or "thin tea." To make usucha, scoop 1 teaspoon of matcha powder into a bowl. Next, heat water to 176 degrees and pour 2 to 4 ounces over the matcha powder. Use a matcha whisk, also called a Chasen, to blend the water and matcha powder; briskly whisk in a "W" or "M" pattern for around 20 seconds until the matcha has evenly dissolved. From there the tea is ready to drink. You can add a creamer or more water as well as sweeteners like honey and sugar to suit your taste. There are two main grades of matcha: culinary and ceremonial. The former is best for cooking purposes, the latter for general drinking purposes. You can whisk ceremonial matcha with hot water for traditional tea or mix it with milk for a matcha latte. The color of PureChimp matcha green tea powder is a nice vibrant green that looked surprisingly premium when compared to other high-quality matcha powders. When it comes down to premium ceremonial grade matchas, color and grind matter and can be a good indicator of the overall quality. PureChimp's grind is very fine and mixes well in water using a matcha whisk. The Matcha Green Tea Powder from Pure Chimp is 100% ceremonial grade which is the crème de la crème of matcha, so you know that this is a good one! Completely organic, this product has been grown without any pesticides and contains a healthy dose of those all-important antioxidants.Each jar you get contains 50 grams of pure matcha powder, so if you just consume the recommended 1 or 2 cups per day using 1/2 teaspoon per cup, it’ll last you quite a while.

Culinary grade matcha can be enjoyed in traditional tea form, but it's best for mixing into recipes: smoothies, baked goods, salt—you name it. Since the tencha leaves are harvested later in season and ground with more heat, the resulting powder has a darker color and more bitter taste. This helps it "stand up to the strong flavors in milk, butter, and sugar," explains Puyane.The tea will get foamy once it is ready to consume. That’s the right time to pour it into a cup to drink. Not sure how to get started with matcha powder? First, use a tea strainer to sift the powder into a bowl to avoid clumps. This will aid in easier dissolution into your tea.

So recently I was browsing around and saw this Matcha Green Tea from PureChimp (interesting name, I thought…) Anyway, I went ahead and bought it as it was fairly cheap relative to other ceremonial grade teas. Despite how detailed these processes seem, good matcha can be made by simple, even crude, means. Puyane told us: "I get a lot of questions like, 'How do I make matcha at home?' 'Do I need special tools—a bowl, a whisk?' When it comes down to it, you can make matcha in a protein shaker if you wanted to."

I’ve used this company for many years, I used to buy their natural beauty product range which was fabulous and I miss a lot since they discontinued it. Anyway, their matcha tea products are brilliant. Great, ethical, eco company!
