Naoki Matcha Superior Ceremonial Blend – Authentic Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Uji, Kyoto (50g / 1.75oz)

Taste incredible. Color perfect. Amount in the jar is great.This was the first ceremonial matcha I tried and I love it you don’t need to look for another. I drink temple coffee and pause coffee matcha and this one is so much better. I make one every morning and sometimes as a midday drink. I keep mine in the fridge to keep it fresh!I suggest using a matcha whisk to blend it out, it become so frothy and rich.I also save about $230 each month by making my own matcha and it tastes the way I want it each time! One package makes about 20 cups of matcha.

I love that this matcha has no added sugars and it lets me control how sweet I want my drink. Gives me great energy and a calming feeling at the same time.I made my own banana cream matcha latte and the flavor is really great and it truly compares to the matcha that’s sold at one of my favorite matcha places! So far I’ve made about 10 16oz drinks and I still have enough for more! How much matcha you use will vary on how strong you like it and what else you add into the drink you make!

Tastes fresh and "bright" unlike some other brands that are more watery and flat. Darker green, not a muted pale kermit color. Strong matcha goodness, I can still taste this when I add to smoothies. Mixes well with matcha whisk or electric whisk when added to a cold latte. No jitters or caffeine spikes with 1 serving. Just be careful when opening the bag first few times- as product will escape.

As someone who appreciates the nuances of matcha, I found the Naoki Matcha Superior Ceremonial Blend to be a delightful experience. The vibrant green hue and fine texture immediately signal its quality. When prepared, it offers a smooth, slightly sweet flavor with subtle umami notes, making it enjoyable both as a traditional tea and in lattes.However, I would note that this matcha might be best appreciated by those familiar with high-quality matcha. Some users have mentioned that the flavor can be more earthy or vegetal than expected, which might not suit everyone's palate. Additionally, while the price reflects its quality, it may be considered a bit steep for daily consumption.Overall, for matcha lovers seeking a premium experience, this blend delivers on taste and quality. Just be prepared for the investment.

Naoki's Superior Blend Ceremonial Matcha is always one of my go to's in terms of a decently affordable daily matcha for my lattes! The flavor is creamy, vegetal (but not so much so that it's off putting), and balanced I'd say. It is a little difficult to get a beautiful microfoam but it's very green, not clumpy and stands up to the oat milk that I use! Naoki is the perfect morning boost! 🍵🤤

This matcha blend is high quality - not clumpy, smooth, and tastes amazing. I love the fact that the quality of matcha is comparable to that from more expensive brands. I'm so glad I no longer have to spend money on overpriced matcha drinks as I can now make them at home. I bought an electric frother and have been making all kinds of matcha drinks myself from strawberry matcha, matcha coconut, to matcha earl grey. Beware that each serving has 64mg of caffeine, which is equivalent to one shot of espresso.

I was honestly surprised by the quality of this matcha! The color is a vibrant, bright green — much better than other, more expensive brands I’ve tried where the pigment faded over time. The flavor is smooth, fresh, and not bitter. Really impressed, especially for the price. Definitely a new favorite!

As a matcha girlie who’s tried a lot from Japan, this is such a good alternative and so cheap for the amount! It’s so rich and nutty, perfect for the gokago recipe. Make sure to keep it in the fridge for longer use and in a darker space of your fridge since it’s sensitive to temperature and light!
