In recent years, Japanese green tea has garnered media attention worldwide for its healthful qualities. Green tea contains a large amount of catechin–a phenol and antioxidant that lowers cholesterol and aids in weight loss. This naturally occurring antioxidant also can aid in the prevention of some types of cancer. Unlike Mattcha, which is served with the Japanese tea ceremony, Uogashi Meicha is perfect for daily consumption, much as coffee or black tea is served in western countries.
