Maeda-En Matcha Ceremonial Quality Green Tea Powder, 1-Ounce

So fire. i bought several other matchas to compare like ito en, but this is def so much better than ‘superior grade’ and ‘culinary grades’. It says 1 ounce IK, but this is a quality over quantity buy. You def won’t regret this ones,100%recommend for all my matcha girlies!!

Simply the best. I tried so many on the market and they are usually all grainy no matter how much you mush and whisk. This one is a perfect creamy matcha that blends seamlessly into a latte. Better than any cafe !

I could feel my mind travel while I sleep I drunk it a little late in day.The MaTchA 🍵 is remarkable. 🤲🏽🪶🤲🏽🪶💝🏁My photos are the process view them a few times. If your new to MatchA.Drink Tea not the Lattê.Honor its origin and method 🤲🏽🪶

It’s true what the say the higher the quality the better when making a latte etc.This company has culinary, universal and ceremonial grade. All are smooth and great options. Universal is great for drinking but their ceremonial really is great. It is subtle, bright green, and great for first timers. A tad pricey for the size compared to other brands.

I'm very pleased with this matcha. I usually order matcha from a website called O-Cha, which is based in Japan, in order to ensure that what I receive is fresh and high-quality, since anyone with even a casual interest in matcha knows that when matcha is good, it's the best, but when it's bad, hardly anything could be worse. I'll deal with less freshness for a quick cup of tea from a bag, but with matcha it's worth going the extra mile. But, sometimes you need something quick and since I'm a prime member, I picked this ceremonial grade matcha to try based on reviews and my previous success with matcha lattes using Maeda-En's culinary grade matcha (I get the one pound bag!). It's also really not badly priced for the quality, although you could probably spend the same amount on O-Cha for something a bit better and fresher, although shipping would take longer.I recommend this product for thin (usucha) matcha anytime. It comes packed in the little metal tin with snap on lid you see pictured, with a little pull-top metal seal under the plastic lid. Inside the tin is a sealed bag with the powdered tea, which you need to open carefully with scissors. I keep it stored in this bag inside the tin in the freezer. From the beginning I knew this was good stuff; the powder is fine, bright green, and has a lovely sweet green tea scent. None of the old, dull product we usually have to deal with buying in America. It produces a cup with no bitterness that froths up quickly and easily, with the same rich (umami) taste as matcha more than twice it's price, although not as bold, which some people will probably prefer actually. I do like it strong, so I think I use more product than many people would, something to keep in mind if you like it bold. I wouldn't use it for thick-type matcha (koicha) because some bitterness will come out if you use enough powder for that, but that is expected at this price. I also can't comment on getting any mental boost or clarity from this since that is just something that I never experience from matcha, no matter how fine. In any case, I'm glad to have found this for $24 and would repurchase, although I wouldn't pay any more for it.

This has to be one of the most affordable and great tasting ceremonial grade matcha available on Amazon. If you know how to properly prepare matcha, everything should blend well. MAKE SURE TO REFRIGERATE TO PRESERVE ITS QUALITY.

There’s no after taste and not bitter in a latte. Good size but for the taste of the tea is something I don’t prefer in my matcha. Taste a lot of vegetal notes.

I’ve been testing out different matcha powders from low to high price points. This was definitely my highest purchase so far (per ounce) but it also had the best texture/taste.
