Matcha in Demand: How South India is Embracing the Trend
Strawberry Matcha at Dou, Nungambakkam Nirmal Raj, founder of Buddies Café and Dandjo Teas in Ooty, has been selling matcha since 2015. But of late, says the tea merchant, the quantities he has had to procure have more than quadrupled. 'Till a couple of years ago, I used to buy only 500g a month. It's now 8kg a month and rising,' says Nirmal. He's not sure what's driving the surge, but he's planning to ride the wave with a matcha dessert menu soon. It's game, set, matcha everywhere. Namratha Marlecha, founder of Sante Spa Cuisine in Chennai, is also seeing an increase in demand for their matcha dishes. 'We've been around for more than seven years now, and hardly a handful of people used to try our smoothie matcha bowl or matcha pina colada, for the health benefits. Today, almost every table has someone ordering matcha dishes. The demand has pushed us to rework our menu and add more matcha drinks,' says Namratha. A finely ground powder made from specially grown and processed green tea leaves, matcha involves consuming the entire powdered young leaf, offering a more concentrated dose of nutrients and antioxidants, unlike regular green tea, where you steep the leaves. Once a niche Japanese import, matcha is now riding the social media wave into cafés, kitchens, and even personal tea collections across Chennai. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo You Can Also Check: Chennai AQI | Weather in Chennai | Bank Holidays in Chennai | Public Holidays in Chennai | Gold Rates Today in Chennai | Silver Rates Today in Chennai Latshyamitra R says every time she opens her Instagram account, her feed is filled with matcha tea recipes. So much so that the UX designer got curious, bought 30g of ceremonial-grade matcha online, a premium quality powder traditionally used in the Japanese tea ceremony, for Rs 800. 'I made matcha drinks with caramel, strawberry and vanilla,' says Latsyamitra. 'I'm planning to bake next,' she says. Saravanan B V, a brand designer from Ooty, initially tried it for its high antioxidant properties and health benefits. But soon he fell in love with the taste and now collects matcha varieties. Not all matcha tastes the same, says Saravanan. Indian matcha has an astringent taste (a dry, puckering sensation in the mouth) that comes from the altitude difference and the way it is ground, compared to Japanese matcha. The Japanese matcha, says Alexander R K, chef at Dou, Nungambakkam, has a unique flavour profile; a delicate balance of earthiness, umami and subtle bitterness making it a versatile ingredient that blends well with sweet and savoury dishes. 'We are trying to use matcha as salt in barbecue meats and tempura,' says Alexander. 'They are still in a trial phase, but show promise among adventurous diners. We're also exploring matcha-infused sauces and glazes that can complement Asian-inspired small plates and grills,' he adds. Matcha Brownie Café owners and tea merchants say they procure their matcha from Japan or Assam (the only place in India where it is grown). Chota Tingrai in Assam's Tinsukia district is the only tea estate in the country that produces it. 'We've been making green tea at Chota Tingrai using Japanese technology since the 1980s, but matcha requires far greater precision and investment,' says tea manufacturer Mrigendra Jalan of Jalan Industries. The estate is experimenting with the Yabukita cultivar and its Assam equivalent, slowly moving toward Japanese standards with both ceremonial and culinary grades. 'The process is slow and costly, as one Japanese grinding machine costs Rs 40 lakh and produces just 10kg a day,' he says. South India has the potential to grow matcha, says Jalan, but the climate and altitude will influence its flavour profile. 'South Indian tea is not as strong as Assam tea, and less bitter. While Assam works on refining production, demand from Chennai, Bengaluru, and Ooty is already surging, pointing to a future where locally grown matcha could complement imports from Japan.'

5 stunning blue snakes that are a sight to behold!
Have you ever been mesmerized by a color so rare on a living organism in nature that it almost feels unreal? That's what blue looks like on snakes and so uncommon that it takes the breath away. These creatures aren't just beautiful, they look like living art, moving through rainforests, reefs, and trees, each with a shade of blue completely their own. Here are the 5 most beautiful blue snakes across the globe! Blue-lipped sea krait The blue-lipped sea krait dazzles and shines with its bold cobalt-and-black bands and its so-called blue lips. Found in the Indian and western Pacific oceans, this semi-aquatic serpent is highly venomous yet surprisingly shy, staying clear of humans even as it moves across the coral reefs silently and gracefully. Blue Malayan coral snake This snake mostly remains in an attacking mode, which is why it is also dangerous. The blue Malayan coral snake combines a vivid blue body with a blazing red head and tail, a deadly visual treat. Native to Southeast Asia, this compact beauty packs potent venom, yet its colors are so vibrant, you might forget just how lethal it really is. White-lipped island pit viper Found in Indonesia's Komodo Island, the white-lipped island pit viper blends shades of sky blue and teal so well they appear almost magical. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Mystical Forest Vase: Hot Sale topgadgetlife Shop Now Undo This tree-dwelling snake is aggressive and venomous, but it's that intense blue that truly steals the show. Eastern indigo snake The eastern indigo snake is the longest native snake in North America, and it's nothing but majestic. With its smooth, deep blue-black scales, it looks like it's been dipped in ink. It's non-venomous and gentle around humans, but its appearance is not to be fooled by as it is also a powerful predator that helps keep ecosystems balanced. Whether gliding through forests or soaking in the sun. Blue racer The blue racer is exactly what it sounds like, a swift, sleek snake with stunning powder-blue skin that almost shimmers in the sunlight. Found mostly in the US and parts of Canada, it's non-venomous and tends to be shy, quickly slithering away before you even spot it. Despite its quiet nature, it's a showstopper in the wild. Watching one glide through grassy fields feels like witnessing a streak of living sapphire flash across the earth. Photos: Canva

A Kaleidoscope of intricate embroideries
Jorah, the contemporary Indian menswear brand's latest collection, The Kaleidoscope is inspired by the ever-changing patterns of a kaleidoscope. Intricate embroidery, textural layering, and innovative fabric techniques elevate the garments, making them ideal for modern-day festive dressing. 'The pieces blend heritage textile techniques with contemporary tailoring, offering versatility for both traditional and Indo-fusion styling. Some of the heritage embroidery techniques such as French knots, resham embroidery and dori work have formed a major part of this collection,' shares Keshav Gupta, founder and lead designer at Jorah. Some of the standout pieces from the collection include a peach and Ivory kurta set with a matching stole, a black and olive kurta jacket set with resham embroidery and the olive and maroon Indo-western outfit. The colour story of The Kaleidoscope traverses a spectrum of soothing pastels and rich jewel tones, striking a balance between subtle sophistication and regal boldness. Muted blues, soft ivories, deep midnight tones, and blush hues form the base of the collection. 'This collection is designed for men who embrace style as an extension of their personality. Whether it's a wedding, a festive gathering, or a refined evening soirée, the collection allows wearers to exude confidence while staying rooted in heritage,' he says. Are there any menswear trends that are likely to blow up in the near future? Gupta responds, 'Menswear is moving towards expressive elegance, with embroidered ensembles taking centre stage over basic solids. Shawls and stoles are being reimagined as statement accessories, adding depth and flair to every outfit. The future also leans into opulence, where bold cuts and experimental silhouettes redefine traditional classics.'
