Frequently Asked Questions

What is ceremonial-grade matcha? +

Ceremonial-grade matcha is the highest quality of matcha, stone-milled from the youngest, shade-grown first-harvest tea leaves. It has a smooth, naturally sweet, umami-rich taste with no bitterness, and is meant to be whisked with water or milk and enjoyed on its own — not cooked or baked.

What's the difference between ceremonial and culinary matcha? +

Ceremonial matcha is made for drinking straight and has a delicate, sweet flavour and vivid green colour. Culinary matcha is a bolder, slightly stronger grade designed to hold its flavour in lattes, smoothies and baking. If you're drinking matcha on its own, choose ceremonial; if you're mixing it into recipes, culinary is more economical.

Is ceremonial matcha better hot or cold? +

Both work beautifully. Traditionally, ceremonial matcha is whisked with hot (not boiling) water at around 70–80°C to protect its delicate flavour. For an iced ceremonial matcha latte, whisk it with a splash of warm water first, then pour over cold milk and ice.

How much caffeine is in ceremonial matcha? +

A standard 2g serving of ceremonial matcha contains roughly 60–70mg of caffeine — similar to a shot of espresso — released slowly alongside L-theanine for calm, sustained energy without the crash.

Do you deliver ceremonial matcha across the UAE? +

Yes. PERCUP delivers ceremonial matcha across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE, with most orders arriving within 48 hours. Every tin is kept cool and shipped fresh to protect its colour and flavour.

Which ceremonial matcha is best for beginners? +

If it's your first ceremonial matcha, start with a smooth single-origin tin from Uji or Nishio, or a starter kit that includes a whisk and bowl. Our best-selling ceremonial tins are a safe, crowd-pleasing first choice.
