  • Tea - Green, White, Matcha
    2023/12/08

    In this episode, Kenneth once again sits down with Jeff Champeau / President of Rishi Tea, and Botanicals. Today they discuss Green, White and Matcha teas. Jeff explains the differences and how to prepare each one like an expert. He also explains more about how tea is grown and harvested.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Tea is harvested on sunny days. Harvesting is a dance between the tea masters, the pickers, and Mother Nature.

    • Matcha is powdered green tea.
    • White tea is the least processed.
    • Matcha can be prepared in classic coffee styles, including espresso.

    BEST MOMENTS
    ‘The spring harvest is generally prized more than the later harvest. ´

    ‘When you shade the tea plant for Matcha you are preserving the amino acids.’

    ‘White tea is more accommodating in terms of temperature.’
