Description: Ummon has a powerful umami, deep emerald green color, and sweet aroma. This matcha is a treat to be savored.For decades Ummon has been one of the richest, most full-forced matcha blends in our selection. Our blending and tasting team members have shared their personal tasting comments on this tea below.“The quality that defines Ummon best is the richness of its flavor. Among our matcha, it is the top representative of the richness and bright fragrance that make the classic Ippodo character. The rich sensation comes through in its umami taste, not in astringency nor bitterness. Matcha offers a variety of health benefits due to its high concentration of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Here are some of the key benefits: Rich in Antioxidants: Matcha is packed with catechins, a type of antioxidant that helps neutralize free radicals in the body, potentially reducing the risk of chronic diseases and promoting overall health. Boosts Metabolism and Aids Weight Loss: The catechins in matcha, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), have been shown to increase metabolism and help the body burn fat more efficiently. Enhances Focus and Calm: Matcha contains L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes relaxation without drowsiness. Combined with caffeine, it can improve concentration and provide a calm, focused energy. Supports Immune System: Matcha is rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, iron, protein, and calcium, which can help strengthen the immune system. Detoxifies the Body: The high chlorophyll content in matcha helps to naturally detoxify the body, removing heavy metals and toxins. Improves Heart Health: Regular consumption of matcha may help reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol and lower blood pressure, which can contribute to better heart health. Enhances Skin Health: The antioxidants in matcha can help protect the skin from damage caused by UV rays and pollution, potentially reducing the signs of aging and improving skin elasticity. Boosts Mood and Reduces Stress: The combination of L-theanine and caffeine can also help improve mood, reduce stress, and enhance overall mental well-being. Supports Healthy Digestion: Matcha has mild digestive benefits, aiding in metabolism and reducing bloating due to its natural fiber content. Improves Cognitive Function: The L-theanine and caffeine combination in matcha is known to enhance memory, cognitive function, and mental clarity. Including matcha in your daily routine can be a simple and enjoyable way to support your overall health and well-being! Ways to Prepare: Usucha (Classic Matcha) 1. Sift matcha (1 tsp).2.
