Copper Tea
As there is no regulatory standard in matcha grading, Copper Tea chooses to name their professional use matcha emphasizing its characteristic use case.
As you will get from the vivid green colour and low astringency, the quality of the "Superior" and "Cafe Standard" matcha exceed most so-called "ceremonial" products on the market.
"Culianry" and "Value" matcha are comparable in taste and colour to, if not exceeding, many “ceremonial” products on the market, these matcha provides great value to users who enjoy catechin and its antioxidative power.
