While both Matcha Love and the other loose-leaf green teas on the market are made from the same plant (Camellia sinensis), the difference is twofold when it comes to Matcha Love. To make Matcha Love, the plant has to be shielded from the sun for around 3 to 4 weeks before harvesting; this makes it vibrant green in color and increases amino acid levels.
Green tea with brewed tea leaves has a grassy, earthy, vegetable-like taste. Matcha Love green tea features a stronger concentration of key nutrients and antioxidants. It also has an earthy, grassy flavor with bitter and sweet undertones.
