Matcha can be either koi or usui and they call it ceremonial grade in English but there is no such thing in Japanese as a category itself. There are many shades and grades of matcha from the first season to last but I think is becoming more a marketing point to sell it. Normally matcha with hot water is a bit heavy on empty stomach. Matcha latte too a bit heavy for breakfast. I drink sencha or jasmine tea instead every morning. and sencha is especially good for upset stomach.

I'm reimplementing a routine break from coffee thanks to @beecurious' recommendations on sencha and jasmine green tea in the mornings. 

A 1 week coffee break once every quarter (3 months) seems like a good start. This was difficult in the past because I was using the wrong type of matcha tea without milk, which was hard on the stomach.

It'll be interesting if I notice any mental and/or physical differences after this current full week of not having coffee.
