  • Rich in ANTIOXIDANTS, vitamin C and chlorophyll (and where the color comes from.
  • Offers CALM, SUSTAINED FOCUS, naturally high in L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes a state of relaxed alertness. When paired with the caffeine (and other herbs in our Morphic) that is naturally present in the tea, L-theanine slows absorption and supports a steadier, more focused energy. *Studies have shown that L-theanine contributes to improvements in attention and mental clarity, especially in combination with caffeine.
  • A DAILY RITUAL, goes beyond routine, our matcha invites a quiet, intentional practice. The act of preparing a bowl --sifting, whisking, sipping-- is in itself a small return to presence.
