The production process is labour-intensive. The tea leaves are protected from direct sunlight about 2 weeks before harvest. This produces more chlorophyll. The youngest leaves are picked, steamed, dried and ground by a granite grinding stone into a fine powder. 
Do you know that it takes an hour for 40 grams of Matcha to be ground into a fine powder?
