Moya Matcha: An Overview
What is Matcha?
Matcha is green tea in powder form. Matcha leaves grow slowly in the shade. This special technique leads to an increased chlorophyll content in the leaves and thus an increased amount of antioxidants. When we drink matcha, we are consuming whole green tea leaves, which provides the body with many more nutrients than when we drink regular tea infusions. Immediately after harvesting, the leaves are steamed and dried, and then ground in traditional mills. This gives them the form of a fine powder.
Where does matcha come from?
In Japanese tradition, matcha appeared 800 years ago as an inseparable part of the tea ritual, and over time became a popular ingredient for drinks and sweet pastries. In the 21st century, it was rediscovered as a food with healthy properties. Moya Matcha is produced on small, organically grown family tea plantations in the Uji region of Japan, renowned for growing the highest quality tea. This is then processed locally, hermetically sealed and shipped in small batches to ensure maximum freshness.

Health benefits - The matcha effect
Increases energy and strengthens endurance
Samurai warriors drank matcha as a natural energy drink when they went on a journey. A cup of matcha contains half the caffeine of a cup of coffee, but thanks to L-theanine, the effects last much longer. Matcha increases concentration and energy, but does not cause jitters, as coffee sometimes does. The catechins contained in tea act as antibiotics and strengthen the immune system.
Burns fat and lowers cholesterol
Matcha speeds up our metabolism and helps burn excess fat. Unlike many other diets, matcha is a natural dietary supplement and has no known side effects. According to research, people who drink matcha regularly have lower levels of bad LDL cholesterol and higher levels of HDL cholesterol.
It relaxes and improves concentration
Buddhist monks have been using matcha for over 800 years to stay awake and focused during long hours of meditation. Today we know that this effect is caused by L-theanine, an amino acid contained in the tea leaves used to make matcha. L-theanine increases the production of alpha waves in the human brain, which leads to an enhanced relaxation effect.
Comparison of ORAC values (oxygen radical absorbance capacity):
The most powerful natural antioxidant
Above is a comparison of antioxidant content in ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity):
Antioxidants prevent the negative impact of so-called "free radicals" on body cells. Antioxidants make us feel younger and healthier and counteract many dangerous diseases. High amounts of antioxidants are found in fresh fruits and vegetables, but matcha contains the highest concentration of antioxidants of all natural sources, including all foods.
One cup of matcha is equivalent to 10 cups of regular green tea in terms of antioxidant and nutrient intake. When you drink matcha, you absorb the whole leaf and all the nutrients. For this reason, it is important to drink an organic matcha that does not contain pesticide residues.
