GABA Gyokuro Matcha “Matsu” – The New Premium Powdered Tea for Mindful Living

In a world where superfoods and matcha have long claimed their place in health-conscious routines, a new kind of powdered tea is stepping into the spotlight – elegant, functional, and remarkably smooth:

GABA Gyokuro Matcha “Matsu”.

Crafted exclusively from premium Gyokuro leaves, this tea represents a refined evolution in Japanese tea culture.

 

100% Gyokuro – From the Heart of Shizuoka

GABA Gyokuro Matcha “Matsu” is made from Gyokuro, one of Japan’s most prized and shaded green teas, grown in Shizuoka – the country’s most renowned tea-growing region. After a carefully controlled shading process, the leaves are harvested, fermented to naturally increase their GABA (Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid) content, and then gently ground into a fine powder.

This innovative processing method preserves the tea’s rich umami flavour and enhances its relaxing properties – making it a true wellness ally in your daily rituals.

 

Not Just Another Matcha – A Category of Its Own

While it may look similar to matcha, GABA Gyokuro Matcha “Matsu” differs in key ways:

• Made from pure Gyokuro, not Tencha like traditional matcha
• Naturally mild and smooth, without the bitterness often associated with matcha
• Contains higher levels of GABA, linked to reduced stress and improved focus
• Offers a full-bodied, umami-rich taste with a soft, round finish

It’s not just an alternative – it’s a step forward in the evolution of powdered tea.

For many, it may even be a better option than standard matcha.

 

Versatile Preparation – The Gyokuro Way

One of the unique strengths of GABA Gyokuro Matcha “Matsu” is its versatility. Whether warm, cold, or creamy – this powdered Gyokuro fits effortlessly into modern lifestyles:

1. Classic Hot Preparation

Stir 1.5 g into 200–250 ml of water at 70–80 °C for a calming, savoury infusion that highlights Gyokuro’s natural sweetness and umami.

2. Iced Gyokuro Matcha

Shake or stir into cold water and serve over ice for a light, refreshing drink – ideal for warm days or a gentle afternoon boost.

No bitterness, no fuss – just pure Gyokuro clarity.

3. Gyokuro Matcha Latte

Paired with oat, almond or soy milk, this becomes a silky-smooth Gyokuro Matcha Latte.

Creamy and balanced, it offers a more delicate and refined experience than many traditional matcha lattes – without overpowering the senses.

For Cafés and Restaurants: A Valuable New Option

For cafés and restaurants that don’t have easy access to consistent high-quality matcha, GABA Gyokuro Matcha “Matsu” is a game-changing alternative:

• Stable and reliable quality, sourced from a single origin in Shizuoka

• No bitterness, making it more approachable for a wider audience

• Easy to prepare, even without matcha tools or expertise

• A unique selling point, thanks to its GABA content and Gyokuro base

If your guests are already familiar with matcha, this Gyokuro-based version is worth exploring – not only different, but in many ways superior.
