Product Overview
What Is
Green Tea Powder?
Green tea powder is a fine powder made from non-fermented, fully processed green tea leaves. It retains the natural polyphenols and clean vegetal flavor of the original leaf — at a fraction of the cost of shade-grown matcha.
Made from Non-Fermented Green Tea Leaves
Regular-cultivation green tea is dried, steamed or hot-air fixed, then ground to fine powder — preserving the natural green character without shade-growing costs.
Retains Natural Polyphenols & Fresh Flavor
Tea catechins and polyphenols remain intact through processing, delivering a clean, lightly bitter vegetal taste that integrates naturally into beverage formulas.
Ultra-Fine Grind for High Solubility
Ground to 800–1,000 mesh, our green tea powder dissolves cleanly in both hot and cold water — eliminating the gritty texture common in lower-grade powders.
800–1,000 mesh fineness — clean dispersion in hot & cold beverages

A Clean, Versatile Flavor
Built for Blending
Green tea powder's flavor character is naturally suited to formulation — fresh enough to stand alone, balanced enough to blend. Understanding these four traits helps you predict how it performs in your product.
Fresh & Light Taste
A clean vegetal freshness that registers immediately on the palate — lighter than matcha, without the heavy umami sweetness. Refreshing in cold beverages, smooth in hot drinks.
Slight Natural Bitterness
Mild, pleasantly dry bitterness from natural catechins — enough to provide authentic green tea character without overwhelming sweeteners or dairy in formulated beverages.
Clean Finish
Short, clean aftertaste with no astringent linger — a key advantage for RTD beverages and dairy-based applications where a long or sharp finish would conflict with the overall product experience.
Natural Green Color
Medium to light green hue — natural and consistent. Color remains stable through standard beverage processing. Heat-stable grades available for bakery applications requiring color retention at high temperatures.

Real Results
How Brands Use Our
Green Tea Powder
Two common scenarios — and how switching to the right green tea powder specification made a measurable difference in product economics and performance.
Case Study 01
Replacing Matcha with Green Tea Powder — Without Losing the Story
The Challenge
A growing RTD brand was using ceremonial matcha in their green tea drink — but the ingredient cost was compressing margins as they scaled production from 2,000 to 20,000 units per month.
Our Solution
We supplied steam-fixed green tea powder at 800-mesh fineness, tuned to a flavor profile that matched the brand's existing taste benchmark. Side-by-side COA comparison confirmed color and solubility parity before bulk commitment.
The Outcome
Ingredient cost reduced by 38% per unit. Consumer taste testing showed no statistically significant preference difference. The brand scaled to national distribution within 6 months.

Case Study 02
Clean Flavor Without the Grassy Off-Note — Functional Beverage Reformulation
The Challenge
A US functional beverage brand needed a clean green tea flavor for their wellness line — but multiple suppliers' green tea powder produced a grassy, astringent off-note that conflicted with their light, fresh brand character.
Our Solution
We recommended our steam-fixed grade processed at controlled low temperature — preserving natural amino acids while removing the grassy volatiles responsible for the off-note. Organic certification (USDA) was provided for their clean-label requirements.
The Outcome
Reformulated product launched with USDA Organic certification. Consumer feedback highlighted the clean, fresh taste as a key differentiator. The brand placed their second order within 60 days of the initial bulk delivery.

Questions We Answer
Before You Ask
The sourcing questions that matter — answered directly. No vague responses, no follow-up delays. If your question isn't here, our team responds within 48 hours.
Matcha is made from shade-grown tencha leaves — shading for 20+ days before harvest boosts L-theanine and chlorophyll, creating a sweeter, more umami-forward flavor and a vivid jade color. Green tea powder is made from regularly-cultivated green tea without shade-growing, resulting in a lighter, cleaner flavor at 30–50% lower cost. Green tea powder is the practical, cost-efficient choice for brands that want an authentic green tea character without the premium price of shade-grown matcha.
Yes — it is one of the most common applications. Our fine-grind grades (800–1,000 mesh) disperse cleanly in both hot and cold water, blending smoothly with milk, creamer, sweeteners, and flavoring agents without clumping or settling. For bubble tea chains, green tea powder provides a consistent, reliable green tea flavor at a cost level that supports healthy margins at high volume.
Our fine grind grades achieve ≥95% solubility at 80°C (hot beverage applications) and ≥85% at 10°C (cold brew, iced tea, RTD). These figures are measured and documented in the Certificate of Analysis issued with every batch. The 800–1,000 mesh grind size is the primary driver of this performance — finer particles disperse completely without the gritty texture or sedimentation common in lower-grade powders.
Standard orders start from 5kg — a deliberately low entry point so new clients can verify quality at commercial scale before committing to larger volumes. Samples are available with no minimum commitment. For OEM and private label orders, minimums depend on specification complexity and packaging requirements; our team will confirm the applicable MOQ in the first response to your inquiry.
Yes, fully. Our OEM service covers custom flavor strength, color targets, grind fineness, moisture levels, and blended formats. For private label, we produce branded packaging in 1kg, 5kg, and 25kg formats with your artwork or our in-house design team. We also provide beverage formula support — helping your product development team dial in dosage rates and stability before bulk production begins.
Yes. We offer USDA Organic, EU Organic, and China Organic certified green tea powder — all produced from our own certified farm with full chain of custody. Organic Trade Certificates (TC) are issued per shipment and are available for your compliance team review before the order ships. All organic batches are subject to the same 483-point pesticide residue testing standard as our conventional grades.
Guaranteed. Samples and bulk orders are produced using the same batch process from the same garden source. We issue side-by-side COA comparisons for sample vs bulk batches — covering color (CIE L*a*b*), particle size, moisture, and solubility — so you can verify the match quantitatively before accepting the shipment. This is a standing commitment on every order we fulfill.
Standard packaging is available in 1kg, 5kg, and 25kg nitrogen-flushed aluminium foil bags sealed in a FSSC 22000 clean room. Samples dispatch within 7 business days of specification confirmation. Bulk production lead time is 15–25 business days depending on volume and specification. Custom OEM packaging requires an additional 5–10 days for print production. We provide tracking at every stage.
