I love Kusui Matcha so much. This is clean and real taste of Matcha.
I feel so great the result in the tea bowl, which is bright beautiful green color and figure every time.

1. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GREEN TEA AND MATCHA
It is no surprise to know that both matcha and green tea are derived from the same plant Camellia Sinensis. Green Tea and Matcha both have different flavor profiles, aromas and different preparation methods.
What makes them different is the processing technique used to create both. Green Tea is grown in sunlight and matcha is shade-grown during the final weeks of harvest. The shade increases chlorophyll pigment levels in the tea leaves and turns them a vibrant green color.
2. WHAT ARE THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF MATCHA?
One cup of matcha tea has 10 times more antioxidants than regular brewed green tea.
Energy boost - Matcha delivers caffeine slowly to your body with a slower release than coffee.
Weight-loss - Matcha is proven to increase metabolism, it helps the body burn calories up to 4 times faster than average without drinking.
3. DOES A HIGHER GRADE OF MATCHA OFFER MORE HEALTH BENEFITS THAN A LOWER GRADE OF MATCHA?
Matcha Grades refer to color, aroma and taste.

4. WHEN PREPARING A MATCHA, HOW MUCH IS THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF MATCHA TO USE?
When preparing a matcha and if you use our Glass Bottle, we recommend using a teaspoon and sieving it through the filter with this the amount of water that fits into the bottle will be the perfect ratio of Matcha to water or if you are using milk.

You've probably heard a lot about antioxidants.
Few of you know, what they actually are or how they work.
This blog post will provide you with simple information regarding what antioxidants are and how they work.
Antioxidants are compounds that help your body combat free radicals.
Free radicals are substances that might harm your body if their quantities are too high. They've been connected to diabetes, heart disease, and cancer, to just name a few.
To keep free radicals at bay, your body has its own antioxidant defenses.
Antioxidants, on the other hand, can be found in food and particularly Matcha, fruits, vegetables, and other plant-based, whole meals. Antioxidants are found in a variety of vitamins, including vitamins E and C.
FREE RADICALS:
When free radicals exceed antioxidants within the body, a condition known as oxidative stress develops.
Long-term oxidative stress can harm your DNA as well as other vital substances in your body.
Damage to your DNA raises your cancer risk.
ANTIOXIDANTS:
Antioxidants are abundant in Matcha, green tea, berries and dark chocolate, to name a few. Antioxidants are a must-have in your daily diet!!
The best procedure is to get your every day portion of cancer prevention agents from solid plant food and Matcha.
In conclusion, only one cup of matcha has 137 times more antioxidants than 10 cups of regularly brewed green tea!!
Burn fat and lose weight with matcha green tea!! If you feel like you are not getting results, then be assured pure Matcha Green Tea can help you!
Read below and discover 3 easy ways to burn fat and lose weight with the magic of Matcha!
1. Add Matcha to Your Workout Water Bottle
Combined with moderate exercise, matcha tea extracts more energy from fat stored in the abdominal area, when combined with cool water and 1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon of good quality matcha powder.
2. Drink Matcha Around 3:00 p.m.
Matcha is a simple solution if you feel tired or drowsy between 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. The small amount of caffeine in matcha gives you a gentle boost of energy for 2 to 4 hours.
In addition to helping you stay focused, matcha's amino acids suppress your appetite and even elevate your dopamine levels. Whilst all matcha teas contain these amino acids, the ceremonial grades of Japanese matcha such as ours contains the highest amounts.
3. Drink Matcha Before Any Physical Activity
No matter what your preferred work out is, one cup of matcha before or during physical activity can boost your metabolism, helping you burn more calories.
Learn more about the Benefits of matcha, and The Power of Daily Rituals.
When you drink matcha you receive an incredibly HIGH LEVEL of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals as well as a LONG and STEADY release of caffeine.
The caffeine is absorbed and released SLOWLY by the body over a period of 6-8 hours.
This means that matcha provides a sustainable energy boost without the rapid 30-minute spike, energy slump, sleepless nights and the “Jitters” associated with coffee.
Matcha caffeine can take more than three to four hours to be distributed throughout the body. Because matcha is a finely ground green tea powder, the consumer is actually drinking the matcha leaves—unlike straining them in a normal green tea. The caffeine process is much SLOWER than something like a cold brew, where the caffeine hits all at once.
What's more, because matcha is high in ANTIOXIDANTS (specifically L-theanine), brain functionality gradually increases. In other words, caffeine is consumed slowly, which negates the feeling of a crash or experiencing jitters as you might from other sources. Plus, matcha is an alkaline; coffee is an acid. Therefore, matcha is much easier to digest and less likely to cause an upset stomach.
Dear Sorate Friends,
I'm Silvia Mella, founder of Sorate.
In this email I would like to share a personal conversation with my grandmother,
who reached 100 years old just a few days ago.
I was unsure if such a personal conversation was going to be criticized like I'm trying to monetize from my grandmother's personal achievement.
But, my goal here is just to share what I have learned and I hope this can inspire you as much as it has inspired me while listening to her story.
The reason why I have started Sorate is to help people improve their life and health through the tea plant, which is considered a Life's Elixir for Longevity.
My Grandmother did not drink Japanese Green Tea in her early years,
but she is doing so now that I have brought it to her and that is not far away from her usual habits and rituals that brought her to achieve such a life milestone.
I offered her some Genmaicha Tea and then we started talking deeply, as we actually never did before.
Don't forget your roots, remember that they led you where you are now.
With Gratitude,
Silvia
HOW DO YOU THINK YOU REACHED 100 YEARS OLD?
Who me 100? (laughing).
I think my luck comes from what I ate throughout my life.
Healthy food from local producers and farmers, small portions and a half glass of red wine.
During the second world war I was a teenager, apparently teenagers should eat the most to help their growth. But we didn't have that option. Luckily.
Leaving the table with a little bit of hunger is key for the body. We are not pigs, we should not stuff ourselves.
War was right outside our home, and there wasn't the option of supermarkets, restaurants or groceries stores, so what we ate was grown and made inside our home.
WERE YOU SCARED OF THE WAR?
Of course! Especially when we were hearing bombs not too far away from us.
WHAT WERE YOU DOING WHEN YOU WERE HEARING THE BOMBS?
We would run on the opposite side of where the sound came from. And we were singing to keep us uplifted and positive. Singing was the only way we had to try to forget what was happening outside, and cheered us up.
WHAT WERE YOU SINGING?
Anything that came to our mind. But the song "Bella Ciao" was what we were really thinking at those moments.
It's a raw song that says words of hope, also in case someone of us was going to die :
"And every hour that we pass here
oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
and every hour that we pass here
we lose our youth.
But the day will come when us all
oh bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
but the day will come when we all
will work in freedom."
HOW MANY BOMBS DID YOU PERSONALLY HEAR DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR?
I don't know, too many.
DURING WAR YOU GOT TYPHUS, A VERY STRONG VIRUS AND DESEAS, WHICH YOU SURVIVED, BUT MOSTLY DID NOT.
HOW WAS THAT?
It was horrible, I was sick in bed for 6 months. Fever, pain all over.
It was also the first time that my mom called the doctor for me. I was dying so it was necessary.
Doctors always bring bad news, so I never liked them.
BESIDE THAT TIME YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN A DOCTOR BEFORE?
Medicines were expensive and when one of us had a headache or something simple like that, we were using natural remedies, made with herbs or just resting and sleeping.
AFTER THE. WAR, WHAT WAS YOUR LIFESTYLE? WHAT DID YOU DO?
If you are asking me if I was doing Yoga like you do, not at all.
I was keeping myself fit by moving sacks full of cement for the men that were rebuilding everything that was destroyed: bridges, houses, monuments, roads, everything has to be redone. That was my workout.
Also there were no bars and clubs or theaters, everything was destroyed. So we would meet all together and pray. I was never very religious, but churches were an excuse for us young people where we could meet and chat between us. It was our leisure time.
YOU HAD 4 KIDS, WHAT IS THE MAIN THING YOU THINK YOU TAUGHT THEM?
Knowledge for me was always very important.
I wanted to study, but I couldn't, and to not know something or not be prepared to respond or have a conversation about something with someone was always my biggest fear.
When you know things, you have a point of view and you can have opinions.
I feel that people think that there is always time to work, but never to learn. And this is so wrong. You always have to learn, even at 100 years old.
We know it's important to get kids to eat healthy foods, but what about getting them on board with healthy drinks? What kids drink can greatly affect how many calories they consume.
