Matcha has found two very different homes in our daily lives. On one side is traditional matcha – a bowl of finely whisked tea, just powder and water, steeped in centuries of Japanese tea culture. On the other is the matcha latte – a modern, creamy drink that has taken cafés and home kitchens by storm.
At first glance, matcha is simple: green powder, hot water, a quick whisk. But in Japan, that modest list of ingredients has given rise to a rich culture of tools – each one designed to turn a spoonful of powdered tea into a smooth, frothy, intensely satisfying bowl.
Matcha has a reputation: vivid green, gently energising and somehow calmer than coffee. But how much caffeine does matcha actually contain? Is it stronger than green tea? And what makes its energy feel so different?
Matcha has moved from quiet tea rooms in Japan to home kitchens and cafés around the world. It’s vivid, energising and unlike any other green tea – you’re drinking the whole leaf, finely ground, rather than a simple infusion.
