More Than a Trend

Matcha isn't just a social media fad; it's a tradition with over 800 years of history.  Used by Zen Buddhist monks for meditation and mental clarity, matcha has been central to Japanese tea culture for centuries. Today in Japan, matcha remains deeply integrated into daily life, valued not just for ceremony but for its tangible health benefits. So yes, it's trending on social media, but the Japanese have known its value all along, and now science backs it up with multiple studies.
