Color
Color is one of the most immediate and reliable indicators of matcha quality. High-quality matcha has a vibrant, bright emerald green color. This intense hue is the result of the shading process the plant undergoes before harvest, which increases the production of chlorophyll and essential amino acids.
Matcha with yellowish or brownish tones suggests lower quality.
Aroma
The aroma of matcha is a direct reflection of its freshness and quality. High-quality matcha gives off a fresh, vegetal scent with sweet notes and a slight umami touch. This pleasant smell indicates a high content of L-Theanine, an amino acid that contributes to both flavor and the relaxing effects of matcha.
Texture
The texture of matcha is essential for proper preparation and mouthfeel. High-quality matcha is extremely fine to the touch, similar to talcum powder or silk. This fineness is achieved through traditional stone grinding, which produces ultra-fine particles.
