What Is Matcha Green Tea Powder (Camellia sinensis)?

Matcha green tea powder is made from the dried leaves of the Camellia sinensis plant by steaming and cooking the leaves then drying them. Because matcha green tea powder is not fermented, it has a high polyphenol content. It is also rich in EGCG (epigallocatechin), which is a powerful compound that can be found in green teas, bananas, and pomegranates. Matcha green tea powder is made by finely grinding the leaves into a fine powder.

Matcha green tea powder naturally contains caffeine.
