Why matcha?
Matcha offers a unique kind of focus—clear and steady rather than spiky—making it a favorite for mindful mornings. At MOONTHE we keep it simple: quality ceremonial‑grade leaves, smooth taste, and easy steps you can follow in a busy day.
What makes matcha feel different
-
Whole‑leaf goodness: you whisk the finely milled leaf into water, so you drink the leaf—no steeping and tossing.
-
Calm + clear: naturally occurring compounds in green tea are associated with a smoother feel compared to typical coffee jolts.
-
Flexible ritual: whisk hot, shake over ice, or blend into a creamy latte—pick the texture you enjoy.
How to make it (quick)
Tools: small bowl or mug, whisk or milk frother, and a fine sieve.
Steps:
-
Sift 1–2 g matcha into your cup.
-
Add a splash of warm water (≈70–80°C) and whisk vigorously until frothy.
-
Top up with more warm water (for a straight cup) or steamed milk (for a latte).
-
For iced, whisk with a little warm water first, then add cold water and ice.
Flavor tip: If you’re new, start with a latte. The creaminess rounds out any vegetal notes.
Make it your daily “green pause”
-
Morning focus: one small cup before emails.
-
Afternoon reset: half‑strength iced matcha to keep evenings calm.
-
Ritual cues: same cup, same place—your brain learns “this is focus time.”
Our approach to sourcing & making
We select organic ceremonial‑grade matcha with a smooth, lightly sweet character that works both straight and as a latte. Small, frequent packing runs keep freshness high. Orders are prepared in scheduled batches and usually ship within a few business days—so your tin spends more time with you than in a warehouse.
FAQs

Is there caffeine? Yes, but most people describe the experience as steadier than coffee.
