Encha Matcha Organic Latte-Grade Matcha Powder 60g — First-Harvest, Smooth & Unsweetened

Encha Matcha is a ceremonial latte-grade, USDA Organic first-harvest matcha powder from Uji, Japan, crafted for smooth, naturally sweet lattes and clean sustained energy.

Harvested each spring from shade-grown tea fields in Uji and stone-ground into a whisper-fine powder, this 60g pouch of Encha Matcha delivers the bright green color and creamy texture ideal for milk-based drinks, smoothies, and culinary uses. It contains no fillers, no sugar, and comes third-party tested and certified organic — a rarer standard in premium matcha. Encha has partnered with trusted Japanese farms for over a decade to bring first-harvest leaves to your cup, with flavor notes of toasted nuts, soft vanilla, and fresh herbaceousness.

How does Encha Matcha perform in a latte?

Encha Matcha is formulated for milk, producing a velvety, low-bitterness latte that blends smoothly whether you use dairy or plant milk. The first-harvest leaves offer natural sweetness and reduced astringency, so the drink stays balanced without excess sugar.

• Add 1 tsp Encha to 5 oz hot water at about 160°F and whisk until smooth.
• Top with 6–8 oz frothed milk of your choice for a creamy texture.
• Works well hot, iced, or as a chilled latte blended with ice.
• Approximately 30 servings per 60g resealable pouch for everyday use.

What makes this matcha a "first harvest" and why does it matter?

First-harvest (ichibancha) leaves are picked in spring and tend to be more tender, with higher amino acid content and a naturally sweeter profile. Those spring leaves are shade-grown to concentrate flavor and then stone-ground to preserve the powder’s texture and color.

• Picked each spring from certified organic Uji farms for premium leaf quality.
• Shade-grown to increase chlorophyll and L‑theanine levels for smoother taste.
• Stone-ground to produce a fine, vibrant green powder that dissolves evenly.

How much caffeine and L-theanine are in a serving, and what can I expect?

A typical serving of Encha Matcha delivers about 60 mg of naturally occurring caffeine paired with roughly 24 mg of L‑theanine. The combination supports alertness with a calmer, more focused sensation than rapid caffeine spikes alone, making it a popular choice for daytime routines.

• Approximately 60 mg caffeine per serving from whole tea leaves.
• About 24 mg L‑theanine naturally present to balance stimulation.
• No added stimulants, fillers, or sweeteners—just pure matcha leaf powder.

How should I store and prepare Encha Matcha for best results?

Keep the resealable 60g pouch in a cool, dry place away from sunlight to preserve color and flavor; refrigeration after opening can extend freshness. For preparation, use low-to-medium heat water and a quick whisk to avoid bitterness and to create a smooth, frothy finish.

• Store sealed in a cool, dark place; refrigerate after opening for longer freshness.
• Use ~1 tsp matcha to 5 oz water at ~160°F; whisk until uniform and frothy.
• Adjust milk ratio and sweetness to personal taste; works hot, iced, or blended.

Who is this for? Encha Matcha suits anyone seeking a premium, organic matcha made for lattes and daily rituals: specialty coffee drinkers switching to green tea, home baristas who want a smooth, frothable powder, health-conscious consumers preferring USDA Organic, and cooks or bakers who want a vibrant, clean-tasting matcha for recipes. If you value first-harvest quality, rich color, and a balanced caffeine experience without added sugars or fillers, this 60g pouch is designed for your cup.
