Green Tea Powder for Cosmetic Formulations
Posted: September 25, 2007
KEIKO Teas has introduced a green tea powder for formulation into beauty products. KEIKO Kabuse No. 2 Green Tea Powder is a certified organic, half-shaded, Japanese green tea powder for use in food, as well as health supplements and beauty products.
Unlike other green tea powders, this powder is created from Japanese, half-shaded tea from a picking on June 2, 2007. The whole tea leaf, including the veins, is incorporated using a proprietary technique of KEIKO, Japan.
KEIKO’s half-shaded tea is said to house an assortment of nutrients, and the proprietary process creates a green tea powder that is water soluble at 25° C, making it useful for many production applications. KEIKO also offers four other types of virgin matcha from early pickings. For more information, visit www.keiko-tee.de.
