Premium Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder - 1st Harvest Ceremonial Highest Grade - USDA & JAS Organic - from Japan 30g Tin [1.06oz] - Perfect for Starbucks Latte, Shake, Smoothies & Baking

This is the first ceremonial grade matcha I've tried. I love matcha anything including ice cream 😂 and wanted to try ceremonial grade the traditional way and eliminate the chemicals from teabags. Perfect, exactly how I'd expect a matcha tea to taste. I only used water and a bamboo scoop and bamboo whisk. Turned out perfect! No clumps, tastes light and fresh and leaves that matcha feeling on your tongue after drinking. Very calm but alert feeling after drinking. I would certainly buy again. Worth every penny. If you like plain matcha tea and you're on the fence, buy it!!

This is absolutely phenomenal Matcha. I've been drinking coffee/tea almost daily for the past 15 years and I've had my share of matcha before- everything from what Starbucks calls matcha to custom-made matcha in a wooden bowl at a high-end tea shop. This is by far the smoothest, best-tasting matcha green tea I have ever had. I actually have two other types of matcha that I've purchased on Amazon and this blows those out of the water, by a very long margin. The other two I have don't seem to dissolve very well and you get bits of grit at the bottom with those- no matter how you make it. I normally do matcha green tea lattes with almond milk when I use this and pre-mix a bit of matcha prior to steaming- my espresso machine does a really good of mixing the rest. No matter how much I pre-mix the others they all seem to settle out on the bottom- this doesn't. This is super smooth, very mild in flavor and not at all bitter. If you're looking to buy the best Matcha Green Tea powder on Amazon, look no further.

I have been drinking Matcha for a very long time. I was looking for a "quick" ceremonial matcha for "on the go days" that is tasty without sugar, blends well with the chasen, is creamy and gives me a nice focused but calm mind- I think this is close enough! Tips: Use teaspoon amount or less, you don't need a lot! Use a chasen (bamboo whisk) right after you pour in the water, even if you're planning on adding milk to make it a latte. Otherwise you still may get "floaties" on the bottom. I still do from time to time, even if I use the whisk. This also is primarily why I give it 4 stars. I hate those clumps! I don't fully enjoy my warm drink when this happens. =( Also the price is too steep to buy all the time. This prevents me from drinking it daily. I have bills to pay people! This was also why I gave a review of 4 stars. But yeh! Save up! Try it! It's good Matcha!!

Finally, a quality Matcha. I have tried several "Matcha" tea bags, didn't taste like the Matcha I loved in Starbucks Green Tea Lattes. After a little research found to get a quality Matcha flavor I needed to buy Ceremonial Matcha. After reading reviews for Premium Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder I decided to buy, even though more than I wanted to pay. So glad I did, worth every penny. When the order arrived I followed directions and made my first cup of Matcha tea, a large cup. I savored every sip. I skimmed through the online recipe book, interesting recipes I might try sometime, but for now, a cup of hot Matcha tea is what I want. The company wants to be sure you are happy, I have received several emails, have happily replied letting them know how much I enjoy their product. One email had a recipe for Starbucks Matcha Latte, which I had to make right away. Absolutely wonderful. I've made it several times now found I need less Matcha than the recipe calls for. What a treat. I will definitely buy more.

Great tea with powder Matcha and avoiding plastics associated with tea bags.
