Frequently asked questions
What is ceremonial matcha?
Ceremonial matcha is the highest grade of matcha powder, made from young, shade-grown tea leaves that are stone-ground for a smooth, vibrant flavor. It’s traditionally whisked with hot water and enjoyed on its own.
Is ceremonial matcha safe during pregnancy?
Matcha contains caffeine, so pregnant individuals may need to limit intake. Many people enjoy matcha during pregnancy within their doctor’s recommended caffeine limits, but always consult your healthcare provider to determine what’s right for you.
