I really enjoy a good glass of fresh made iced tea. I prefer mine to be a sweet tea that I sweeten myself with a touch of honey and lots of ice. A couple years ago I started having issues drinking tea. I just couldn't drink commercially made tea. I started making my own herbal blends and late last year I was once again able to drink some brands of commercially prepared tea. When I was giving the chance to try the Organic Black Matcha Tea that was talked about on the Dr. Oz show, I accepted. Dr. Oz talked about the fat blocking properties of Matcha tea and this tea is USDA organic, BPA free certified, tested for heavy metals and Swiss certified organic.
Matcha DNA™ tea is hand picked and can been made into a delicious tea, latte, martini, used in food like green tea ice cream or used in cooking. This tea is high in EGCG and antioxidants. I made mine in a coffee cup, then poured it into a glass filled with ice the first time. There was a bit of the powder visible that I did not care much for. The second time I made it I used my Zarafina tea maker. There was some powder left in the tea maker but this was ok with me. The tea was rich, smooth, not bitter and very tasty. It doesn't take a lot of the powder - ½ teaspoon for an 8-ounce cup - so the bag will last a long time. I was also glad to see this tea available as a black tea since I do not care for green tea - with that said, this is a blend of green and black tea but I cannot detect the green tea.
Here are a few key points about this tea:
- 100% CERTIFIED ORGANIC: Swiss Certified Organic - Never Irradiated - Not from Japan USDA Organic.
- ALL DAY ENERGY and FOCUS: Keep your focus and concentration with the natural energy slow release from Organic Matcha.
- AT BLOCKING BOOSTER: Support your weight loss goals with an all-natural boost your body's metabolism.
- OVER 10X MORE ANTIOXIDANTS as compared to brewed green tea.
- BPA-FREE PACKAGING: Vacuum Sealed in BPA-Free Foil pouches for freshness.
