Muzi Tea
granite ground white tea
I've been looking for a good source of Matcha tea for a while, so I was happy to find MUZI Teas at Surfas in Culver City. Not only does MUZI make green tea matcha, which is that bright green tea powder that you whisk into a frothy green beverage, but they also apply the same technique to create powdered black and white teas as well.
Powdered tea was the way tea was consumed back in 11th century
china during the song dynasty. We are taking the first step in north
america to re-introduce this innovative way of drinking tea. We use a
granite grinding wheel to grind the fujian white tea down slowly into
an ultra soft powder which holds 10 to 15 times the nutrients of a
steeped white tea. taste is smooth and grassy.
I was hoping that white tea powder would actually be closer to a silvery pale color, but in fact, just like the leaves it comes from, white tea is not actually white, but a muted green color. Regardless, the tea tastes great, and I love the clean product design.
