Matakana Superfoods Organic Matcha Tea Powder is a certified-organic Japanese Matcha Powder made from specially processed, young green tea leaves. Matcha contains less caffeine than coffee and is rich in antioxidants and the amino acid L-theanine (the total polyphenolic content found in matcha tea falls within the range of 169–273 mg GAE/g).
