EVERGREEN Matcha Paste

A paste-like product produced by mixing Matcha with water using our unique manufacturing technology. (※)

(※) What is the unique manufacturing technology ?
Color fading of matcha occurs when “chlorophyll ” contained in matcha loses its original green color by the influence of heat, light, and acid.
Our green stabilization technology applied to the chlorophyll prevents color fading.

EVERGREEN Matcha Powder
This matcha powder is made by spray-drying the water contained in the matcha paste.

EVERGREEN Green Tea Extract
This is a liquid extracted from Tencha green tea leaves by applying our green stabilization technology.

It can be used for general food processing such as confectionery and breadmaking, and also, for beverages, alcohol products, and retort foods, etc.
Especially, it is suitable for the following products:

• The products that want to be composed of raw materials with no coloring agents.
• The products that require heat for sterilization during processing.
• The products that you want to be transparently packaged.
• The products in acidic region with low pH value.

We have track records of heat resistance to retort sterilized products at 121℃
 for 20 minutes and at 95℃ for 40 minutes.

We have a track record of light resistance to products packaged in transparent materials at the illuminance of 1500 to 2000 lux.
1500-2000 lux is the illuminance inside of the showcase.

We have a track record of acid resistance to sparkling beverages with a pH value of about 3.5.

Although it can be expected to be effective in preventing green color fading, catechins contained in tea tend to be oxidized easily.
There is a concern that it may become a blackish green or a reddish brownish green due to the discoloration symptom by oxidation.
We recommend that you take antioxidant measures as necessary.

Foods whose doughs become alkaline after the ingredients are mixed before heating may have color fading or color change problems.

EVERGREEN Matcha is more effective in preventing color fading than regular type matcha or matcha with chlorella. However, because it is a food ingredient, it does not mean that it will not color-fade at all .
For example, discoloration or color fading symptoms of EVERGREEN Matcha can be seen in an environment that it is exposed to strong light or sunlight for a long time, or in an environment when high heat is applied to it for a long time, such as at 80°C for four hours or at 120°C for one hour.
In addition, the color may change depending on the combination with it and the mixed raw materials.
Many causes are thought to be due to oxidation, and when the water activity of the food is high, catechins, which are the active ingredients of tea, turn reddish brown.
If the element that induces oxidation is high, such discoloration symptoms will be seen, so it is recommended to use an antioxidant in combination.

It is measured for each production lot.
