True Story.

WHERE DID MATCHA COME FROM?

When you drink Epic Matcha, you're participating in a 1,000 year-old journey.

Matcha green tea can be traced back to ancient China, where it was first introduced by Buddhist monks. The bright green brew soon traveled to Japan, and became an integral part of the Zen lifestyle. Today, Epic Matcha brings the potent superfood to you.

Known for calming the mind without causing drowsiness, matcha has been used to enhance meditation for centuries. It helps to create a feeling of relaxed awareness, without the same crash as caffeine. These effects are due to a high concentration of L-Theanine, a naturally occurring amino acid that stimulates the production of alpha waves in the brain ? a sign of mental calmness.

Matcha is a stone-ground, fine powder made from the highest quality green tea leaves. Each serving of matcha is full of amino acids, vitamins and minerals ? much more so than any other type of tea.

Matcha has been harvested and processed the same way for hundreds of years. For weeks before the harvest, the tender green tea leaves are shaded from the sunlight. With no sun, the leaves increase their production of chlorophyll and amino acids, turning a darker shade of green. The finest buds are gathered by hand, and then dried. After removing the stems from the leaves, they are stone-ground into a soft, talc-like powder with a brilliant green hue. Only then can the leaves be called matcha.

If you desire a calm state of mind, renewed energy, and improved health, tap into the ancient secret of the monks. Take the journey for yourself, and try adding Epic Matcha to your daily diet. Discover what the powers of matcha can do for you.

Matcha Green Tea Health Benefits

The Epic Superfood

Are you looking for the perfect superfood?

Green tea has been proven to help to flush your body of free radicals and toxins, harmful substances that make you more susceptible to illnesses, weight gain, and even cancer. However, not all green teas provide the same level of protection that your body needs.

Benefit fully from the powers of this superfood by choosing a green tea product that intensifies the health benefits of the leaf: Epic Matcha.

WHAT MAKES MATCHA GREEN TEA MORE POWERFUL THAN OTHER GREEN TEAS?

Matcha tea blends use more of the actual leaf to get the best flavor and, more importantly, the highest nutritional value. When you prepare ordinary green tea, you steep and strain out the leaves. With matcha green tea, you dissolve the leaves and drink them whole. Just one serving of matcha has the nutritional equivalent of 10 servings of ordinary green tea, including vitamins, minerals and natural antioxidants.

WHAT ARE ANTIOXIDANTS?

Antioxidants are naturally occurring chemical compounds that lower the risk of serious illnesses and chronic health conditions. Fruits and vegetables offer a fair amount of antioxidants, but matcha green tea supplies many, many more.

According to an Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) test carried out by nutrition experts at Tufts University in Boston, Massachusetts, matcha provides as much as twenty times more antioxidants than pomegranates. While a pomegranate might contain roughly 105 units per gram on an ORAC test, matcha tea provides you with 1,300 units per gram!

BALANCED ENERGY WITHOUT THE CRASH

Do you drink tea or coffee in the morning? Most people enjoy caffeinated beverages after they wake up ? and suffer from the corresponding energy crash later in the day.

Matcha green tea doesn't contain nearly as much caffeine as coffee and black tea, so you can avoid crashing in the afternoon. But matcha green tea does contain healthy nutrients that give your body a naturally sustaining energy level. You'll feel alert yet relaxed throughout the day ? never jittery.

Need more energy? You're not alone. Recent studies show that matcha green tea can increase physical endurance throughout the day by 24%. Even if you aren't planning on climbing Mt. Everest or running a marathon, matcha green tea can help you stay focused and energized all day long.

A NATURAL RESOURCE

Matcha green tea is all natural, without any added stimulants or artificial ingredients that are toxic to the body. Unlike other stimulating foods, drinks or medications, matcha has no side effects. The vivid green color that you see is a sign of matcha's high level of antioxidants.

Chlorophyll is the key element that gives green teas and plants their deep green color. Chlorophyll is an extremely powerful antioxidant, and matcha green tea is loaded with it. Some matcha tea brands, like Epic Matcha, are actually grown to create the deepest green shade possible. A more vibrant, rich green means that the matcha is higher in chlorophyll and nutritional value ? and that you'll benefit even more from its many health benefits.

ENHANCED WEIGHT LOSS

Drinking matcha green tea may also help you lose weight. Not only is matcha almost calorie-free, it can increase your metabolism by helping your body burn fat. Studies show that matcha green tea can quadruple the rate of your metabolism.

Epic Matcha Ceremonial Tea - an Ancient Tradition

Harmony. Grace. Respect. The traditional Japanese tea ceremony is much more than a pause for refreshments ? it's a spiritual experience that recognizes the special nature of the present moment, and the present company. Aesthetics are an integral part of the ritualized performance

art, including clothing, flowers, sweets, and every single movement of the hand.

Create your own matcha ceremony with the recipe below, and enjoy a mindful moment of reflection and tranquility.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon Epic Matcha green tea powder (ceremonial grade) 1 cup hot water (not quite boiling ? 165?F to 180?F)

Clean all of your utensils well, and then scoop the matcha into a bowl or cup. Ladle, or slowly pour, the hot water on top of the matcha. Using a traditional bamboo matcha whisk or a

handheld electronic milk frother, whisk the mixture until a light foam covers the top. If desired, add a natural sweetener like honey, stevia or agave. Always serve your guests before yourself.
