Who is Misty Lava?
Misty Lava is a Vietnamese American family tea company creating oolong matcha from high-mountain cultivars grown in Vietnam’s Central Highlands. The leaves are shade-grown, selectively hand-picked and stone-milled into a smooth powder with the floral depth of oolong.
The range includes ceremonial and jasmine oolong matcha, culinary powder and roasted hōjicha, offered in 30 g tins, 100 g refill bags and a four-tin collection.
Bold low-bitterness oolong matcha for lattes baking and desserts
Misty Lava Certified Organic Culinary Oolong Matcha is a 30 g stone-milled tea powder from Vietnam’s cool, misty volcanic highlands. Its bold flavor remains noticeable with milk, fruit, and other recipe ingredients. The profile combines a smooth, creamy character with natural sweetness, gentle umami, low bitterness, and a clean finish.
What does this culinary oolong matcha taste like?
This powder has a balanced tea flavor with distinctive oolong depth. Natural sweetness and gentle umami soften its bolder side, while low bitterness keeps the profile smooth. The finish is clean and lingering rather than quickly disappearing behind other ingredients.
Why does it work in lattes and recipes?
The pronounced tea flavor is made to stay present in milk and mixed recipes. Its intended uses include:
- Matcha lattes where the tea needs to remain distinct in milk
- Smoothies blended with fruit and other ingredients
- Desserts that call for a smooth tea flavor
- Baking recipes suited to culinary matcha powder
No fixed serving ratio is provided, so preparation can be adjusted to the chosen latte, smoothie, dessert, or baking recipe.
Where is this organic oolong matcha produced?
The oolong tea cultivars are grown at high elevation in Vietnam’s volcanic highlands and harvested by hand. The leaves are granite stone-milled into a silky, ultra-fine powder. The product is certified under Vietnam’s TCVN 11041 organic agriculture standards. It is also tested by an independent laboratory for pesticides, heavy metals, and aflatoxins.
What comes in the tin and how should it be stored?
The only ingredient is 100% oolong tea leaves (Camellia sinensis). The 30 g powder comes in a reusable screw-cap tin with a double seal. Keep the tin in a cool, dry place and reseal it tightly after every use.
After opening, refrigerate the tin. Before opening it again, allow the container to return to room temperature. This format combines culinary-grade oolong matcha with packaging designed for repeated opening and resealing.
Culinary is a commercial matcha grade used for cooking and baking, with a stronger, more bitter flavor that suits recipes and lattes.
Vietnam is a major tea producer ranked seventh globally, with northern regions such as Thai Nguyen growing green teas rather than traditional matcha.
