Matcha Powder - Japanese ceremonial grade Kyoto Uji First Harvest Stone-Milled Green Tea Powder (40g / 1.4oz) TARO - Tin

Based in the color it doesn’t look a good matcha. Taste it’s ok.

This matcha is good, i would say it’s mild. I can taste the matcha flavor but if you put too much milk it’s not as a strong taste. It was not bitter at all, and it was smooth. I had no problem other than i was hoping it was more medium bodied. The color is great. I heard people saying that the powder smells weird but it doesn’t. If you plan on buying it don’t put too much milk and i use 2 tsp of powder every time. I used like 1/2 cup of milk after i whisk my matcha and it tasted good. I would say it’s definitely good for beginners and people who prefer mild matcha but can still taste the matcha flavor.

Great matcha especially for price! While its admittedly not the best matcha I've had, I think its probably going to be hard to find one this good at this price point anywhere else. I love making matcha at home but I had a hard time justifying having it daily because of how expensive matcha has gotten but this has resolved that issue and has become my daily matcha! Overall it had a nice subtle sweetness to it. Its not too astringent either which makes it a great matcha to have by itself as a latte or an usucha. Its also strong enough though that if you want to mix any sweetness or other flavors like various jams (which is my go to) you can definitely still taste the matcha. Def recommend trying this one!

UPDATED: For the price this is a pretty good product. I purchased the taro blend, and tried it as both an usucha and a latte. Overall I was not a huge fan of this matcha in the usucha, simply because of the bitterness and astringency. The matcha flavor is definitely there, leaving a bitter flavor in your mouth long after finishing. I’d say it is a medium bodied matcha, with no nuttiness or sweetness. It is on the grassier side. In a matcha latte, however, it faired much better. I added sugar to my matcha latte, which cut back on the astringency and bitterness. $20 for 40g is pretty decent, so if you are only using this for lattes, this could be a good option. I likely won’t purchase this again, simply because I prefer a nutty, sweeter matcha. I will try the Gold blend next time to see how that one compares.

This matcha has decent color , quality , and taste for its price point . Definitely had a mild sweet undertone . Smooth

Matcha is super hard for me to find and Amazon has an amazing selection. This was the first real “ceremonial” matcha I purchased and it has been my favorite. It smells amazing & comes fresh in a silver container. It’s the perfect size to make 10+ drinks and quality is amazing. It helps so much with my headache!
