Organic Matcha

This is only my second or third product review on Amazon. I wanted to write this review because this ceremonial matcha from Leopard is just some of the best Matcha I have ever had. If you don’t have the time to read my full review (it’s a little long) just know that this matcha won’t disappoint, and if you want a high-quality matcha at a reasonable price then look no further. That being said… here is the long version.I work alot, like I mean a lot. I have tried just about every kind of energy supplement on the market and I drink coffee like it’s water. Physically I didn’t feel great, and I decided to make a change. About 6 months ago I started trying to get into shape and live a healthier life. As a part of this new effort I cut out the energy drinks and started looking for a healthier alternative. During my Google research green tea kept popping up as a healthy way to maintain energy levels, so I decided to give it a try.At first I just bought the generic kind of green tea from the grocery store, it definitely helped with me not feeling as tired, but I didn’t really like the taste. The stuff that I got was bitter so I started mixing in honey and it was tolerable, I actually started to like it. A few weeks later I decided to start cutting down on the sugar in my diet so that meant that the honey had to go, but I didn’t want to give up my green tea. I did some more searching for “sweet” and “non-bitter” green-tea and that’s where I found out about matcha.If what I was reading online was true it meant that I could get a “ceremonial grade” matcha tea and it wouldn’t be bitter at all, meaning I wouldn’t need to add anything to enjoy it. I went back to the grocery store to look for some, but I couldn’t find any, so I headed over to Amazon. I from my research I knew that getting a low-quality matcha was basically a waste of money, that being said, I didn’t want to break the bank either. I ended up giving the Leopard ceremonial grade matcha a try because I really connected with the story behind it. I thought it was really cool that this tea comes from a family owned tea estate in Japan that has over 250 years of experience in tea, and it was in my price range!My matcha came 2 days after I ordered it (I got it on Prime). The first thing I will say is that the tin that the tea comes in is really cool. After I finished my first batch of matcha I started using the tin to keep small items like paper clips and pens organized on my desk at work, so don’t throw it out when you’re done! The next thing I’ll say is that this tea smells great! It has sweet and rich earthy smell that I have to say I have fallen in love with it.Two factors speak to the quality of this tea more than anything else, the color and the texture. This matcha has a vibrant green color and the texture is so fine that the powder will fill in the grooves of your fingerprints if you touch it! When you whisk it in water it froths nicely without clumping up. Making matcha has become my little ritual that I do about 2 times per day now and I have to say that in many ways it has changed my life. I don’t even drink coffee anymore!If you made it this far, thanks for sticking with me till the end! I know this was probably a little more in depth than I needed to go with this review, but it’s too late now. All I can tell you is that if you are looking for an awesome matcha at a great price, then this is the tea you have been looking for. So, if you decide to order some... Enjoy ;)

I've been drinking this tea for over a month now, and I have to say—I'm blown away! This was my first time trying Pantenger matcha after experimenting with two other brands from Amazon, and wow, this one stands out by miles.The taste? Incredible! It’s naturally creamy with a hint of sweetness (this tea is not sweetened) and zero bitterness. I love making it as a latte with foamed soy milk—so velvety and rich! I bet it would be just as amazing with oat milk or other non-dairy options.The color is stunning, too—such a vibrant lime-green, and it dissolves perfectly in my mug. Even when I accidentally use water that’s a bit too hot, it still tastes fantastic—way better than anything I’ve had before.This matcha is definitely a new staple in my kitchen. Bonus points for the packaging—it’s fun and features a sleek panther design that always makes me smile. Can’t wait to order more!

I like the flavor of this tea. I saw some reviews where people really did not like the taste of this but I did not have that issue. I think it's a good color, dissolves well in hot water, has a nice mild flavor with no bitterness. I did read the insert which suggested starting with only a 1/3 tsp, which is how I am using it and adding about 5 oz of water. I'm wondering if perhaps some folks are adding too much of the matcha powder and that is why they are experiencing the unpleasant and bitter taste. I would buy it again, my only issue is that I don't think the tin, while very cute, is the best way to store the Matcha. Keep it in the fridge.

Excellent tea. Ordered more.

I’ve been using the Pantenger Organic Matcha Green Tea Powder for a while now, and it’s become a staple in my daily routine. This 3 oz tin provides about 70 servings, making it great value for the quality. The matcha is sourced from the first harvest in Japan, which means it’s packed with nutrients and has a vibrant green color. 🍵✨I love using it for both lattes and smoothies. The taste is smooth and slightly sweet, without any bitterness. It blends perfectly, creating a creamy texture that’s just delightful. Plus, knowing it’s organic and free from any additives makes me feel good about what I’m consuming. If you’re looking for a high-quality matcha to elevate your drinks, I highly recommend this one! 🌿💚

This last pouch of matcha was not as smooth as previous shipments.
