[BULK] Powdered Green Tea - Ceremonial (early spring harvest) [1kg powdered tea]

KOREAN NAME: 가루녹차 garu-nokcha 
ORIGIN: South Korea (Honam Tea Estates)
INGREDIENTS: Powdered Green Tea (camellia sinensis)
HARVEST TIME: Early spring
TEA GRADE: Ceremonial grade = partially shade grown, harvested in early spring, ceramic-ball milled
TASTE: Luxuriously smooth and grassy.

This ceremonial grade powdered green tea captures the essence of the early spring harvest, delivering a flavor profile that strikes an elegant balance between robustness and refinement. Each batch is meticulously processed to preserve the delicate notes and vibrant color characteristic of early season leaves. Whether whisked into hot water for traditional preparation or blended into milk for a contemporary latte, this ceremonial-grade powder showcases the complexity and sophistication that discerning tea enthusiasts seek.

Prepare traditionally in hot water with a whisk to create foam on top. Or simply add 1/2 teaspoon of powdered tea to a bottle of water (500ml/16.9oz), shake well and enjoy.

Seamlessly integrates into your preferred milk—whether traditional dairy, oat, almond, or alternative varieties—creating a refined malcha latte with every preparation. If sweet latte is preferred, add sweetner of choice (our favorites are pure cane sugar, simple syrup or agave syrup). 

Grand Master of Traditional Foods (or myung-in) is a distinguished title given to individuals in recognition of their extraordinary contributions in protecting and preserving the nation's traditional agricultural methods, manufacturing processes, and unique tastes of Korean culture. For two consecutive generations, Hankook Tea's founder Yang Won Seo, succeeded by his son Minsoo Seo, have each been appointed as the 34th and 54th Grand Master by the Ministry of Agriculture of South Korea, holding the title for both MALCHA (powdered green tea) as well as HWANG CHA (partially oxidized tea).
