Traditional medicinal uses of green tea goes back 5000 years in China. Tea was introduced to Japan about 600 AD by priests who had gone to China to study Buddhism. A natural #stimulant, green tea leaves contain low levels of caffeine, but in combination with L-Theanine – a water soluble amino acid that neutralises the speedy “rise and crash” effect typical of caffeine – Green tea invigorates without draining your energy. Bamboo Hut utilizes a proprietary “#Macha #Green #Tea” powder that is produced without the need for mechanical grinding. This produces a better preserved, more bio-available form of unfermented green tea powder. Macha Green Tea provides the unadulterated benefits from the entire tea leaf.
