Product Development Capabilities
Inherit traditions, create the next
For many years, there has been a problem with matcha fading when heat is applied to it during food processing.
As a result of 10 years of research, Aiya Co., Ltd. has completed Gleaminal® OM, a matcha tea that has anti-fading and color-producing properties.
Color preserving matcha
GREEMINAL®OM(Registered trademark No. 5221678)
Appeal of matcha lies in its green beauty along with the taste and aroma. However, the color brightness was inevitably lost at the time of food processing. Developing matcha which does not lose color when heat is applied was a longtime dream of the industry.
After 10 years of thorough researches, AIYA produced color preserving matcha GREEMINAL®OM. With a special production process, impalpable powder of matcha is uniformly coated with edible oil. The product can be used in the same manner as ordinary matcha.
