Lucumatcha: A New Super Latte Coming
A blend of flavors and benefits Lucumatcha is a blend of matcha , Japanese green tea powder & Lucuma powder, a fruit from the Peruvian Amazon. This synergy is interesting on two levels: taste & nutrition . Matcha, through the selection of young tea leaves, has a high antioxidant content , a so-called " Umami " taste with light bitter and sometimes even herbaceous notes. Lucuma, on the other hand, is full of B vitamins and provides a mild and slightly sweet flavor. It has the power to thicken our preparations a little, making our vegetable lattes creamier than ever. The Lucuma Fruit cut in half, harvested by Marie in Peru " Together, they form a perfect balance ," says Marie Rousset (product development & sourcing at Sol Semilla) who created this new drink. " Indeed, in addition to providing vitamins & fiber, Lucuma softens the sometimes slightly too bitter taste of Matcha, making it even easier to drink! I recommend mixing it with rice or oat milk! " A historic cultural marriage Peru and Japan have been very close. The Peruvian government in 1899 offered Japanese farmers to cultivate land on the coast. Peru even had a president of Japanese origin. Nikkei culture is therefore very present in Peru, particularly in the cuisine, ceviche or "leche de tigre", dishes of marinated raw fish reminiscent of Japanese culinary art (sashimi). “ Lucumatcha therefore echoes the history of this beautiful cultural marriage ,” explains Marie, who has travelled to both countries. You can already come and taste this latte at the restaurant rue des vinaigriers in Paris. If you validate it, it will however only be available this fall in a sachet to make at home or while traveling! Photo credit: Sol Semilla
