The perfect cup of matcha – my way

I've been experimenting with matcha for years, and this is my routine that I love the most:

• Premium matcha requires the best tools. I use a small bamboo whisk (chasen) – but a small hand-held milk frother will do just fine at home.

• The key is temperature. Boil water, then let it sit for 5-7 minutes. This way the water cools down just enough (to 80°C) to not burn the delicate green tea aromas of the matcha. I use this kettle: De'Longhi Eclettica SpecialTea. I can recommend it for making tea, as you can adjust the temperature and it maintains the temperature.

• Proportions: It's important to consume the right amount for you, although matcha's caffeine content is unique: due to the L-theanine content of green tea, the effect is calm, focused alertness - there is no jitters or "jumps" like coffee. So a cup of matcha gives you a balanced energy that can last up to 4-6 hours.

• Don't rush! Stir quickly but surely until a fine, silky foam covers the surface of the tea. Enjoy every moment of your tea or latte!

• As a latte: Dissolve about 1 teaspoon of matcha in a little 80-degree water, then pour over 150–200 ml of hot or cold milk – sweeten to taste!

The package price also includes a gift box, which is perfect for gift giving. The design of the boxes may vary per order.
