Further information for resellers:

What is Matcha actually?

Matcha is an exquisite powdered green tea from Japan. The leaves of the tea bush are carefully shaded before harvesting, then carefully steamed, freed from branches, leaf veins and stems and finally ground into a fine powder. More detailed information on matcha can be found on our information page www.matcha.de. Matcha is Japanese and is made up of mat = ground and cha = tea, i.e. "ground tea". It is therefore unnecessary to say "matcha tea", as it translates as "ground tea tea". 


What is a matcha latte?

The matcha latte undoubtedly represents the preferred method of preparation in cafés. Carefully prepared matcha is combined with milk or milk alternatives. The preparation is very similar to that of a latte macchiato, except that a similar amount of prepared matcha is used instead of espresso. The drink can then be further refined by adding sugar, syrup, fruit or fruit puree, ice cubes or ice cream. For aesthetic reasons, this drink is usually served in a tall glass and can also be presented attractively with latte art.


Matcha preparation and duration

The traditional preparation of matcha or a matcha latte takes about the same amount of time as the preparation of a cappuccino. The fine powder is placed in a bowl, poured over hot water and then whisked with a bamboo whisk to create a delicious, frothy drink. Although it takes a little practice, the artisanal preparation will undoubtedly be appreciated by your guests.
 

What accessories do I need for preparation?

With a matcha bowl, a bamboo whisk and a bamboo spoon, preparation is child's play. We offer special accessories for the preparation of many matcha drinks or many matcha lattes in the catering trade so that preparation is quick, easy and guaranteed.


Can my staff learn how to make it quickly?

We provide a guide for your staff to ensure that they can prepare and present the matcha in the best possible way.


Who is my target group for Matcha & Matcha Latte?

Matcha, and especially matcha latte, is particularly popular with the younger generation, who attach particular importance to health and are looking for a tasty and better alternative to latte macchiato or cappuccino.


Does matcha have to be labeled as an allergen?

No, matcha, i.e. green tea, is not an allergen. Even if matcha contains a high amount of caffeine, it does not need to be mentioned separately on the menu due to its high caffeine content. The labeling requirement does not apply to caffeinated drinks based on coffee, tea or coffee or tea extract. (this does not constitute legal advice, but merely reflects our opinion)
 

Where and how else can I use matcha?

Matcha is extremely versatile. You can use it in cakes, ice cream, smoothies, desserts and even in hot dishes to surprise your guests with flavorful sophistication.
