Shogyokuen: Tencha Green Tea Leaves, 4-level Sampler Set Size:40g (10g x 4 types) / 1.4 oz Nakazen's 18 Herbs for LongevityTencha is the name of the leaf used to make matcha. It is generally made by shading to prevent the leaf from becoming bitter (reducing sunlight prevents catechin from building up as the leaf grows), then steaming, drying without rolling, and finally refining into flakes. You can enjoy this tencha as a tea, or attempt to grind it yourself. Note that commercial level stone mills as well as pulverization machines can create very fine grain matcha powder
