      Literally NOT because she didn’t brew a single cup of tea and didn’t show everybody the texture and how it brews, and her realtime reactions to tasting. She could’ve just been some random AI reviewer that read out loud the Amazon AI summary. Typical lazy Gen Z video. She care more about her appearance and flipping her hair than actually brewing tea.

      Also, for me personally, I'd never spend anywhere near $20 on matcha alone. I recently found a Strawberry Matcha latte powder bag for about $7, but less than HALF the bag is filled with the Matcha 🙄-is $7 really *worth* not even a half-filled bag when I blow through it so much? I've had the make what I have left of my original Matcha bag work for me. I hadn't made any Matcha in over a month b/c I didn't want to have it be gone before I could pick up more & given, different brand, but got it for the same price. Sadly, I can't find the exact same one where I had once found it before. Sometimes, I stumble upon things like that by chance. I wish companies would add more product and far less air to their products if we're gonna be charged $7+ for it.
      Hopefully, some ppl aren't allergic to some ingredients in here, but this is the bag that's nearly empty for me now: www.amazon.com/Superfood-Sweet-Heart-Ingredients-Caffeine/dp/B083NHJ7RC/ref=sr_1_5?crid=1J2EKMY3SYG4E&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.g21pG6zlz-z6IOCCwjIHxMIurZfkkXLzxnTvYfzEBCYD0z2IOLtUDeqbs3w74So6XDXJB5Q7wMMGwWU8RYkGCnP7dnwQW9sUB8y-FK3BCOM4kPcnaWUVFmzlehbLljaU6clSJCRhwmrVnreQb6x29W5Z7pPUlG-gZa5y6tS6mx1seHDXKh5jnLxT0zK3pjduv0vxsH0MfH8tExV0dIOFtl3IeQIFwKDin-OhBUbudiWKyplm4TWxIt7gKkSRt7l-IWi4u4snD5UXpu4gS7beEKQNdXCakOvrV1QiZkS-XWo.2F35XXzLWNUvwd9dgrTF960Wp1F69AjJw5WtPdt1PPU&dib_tag=se&keywords=matcha+superfood+mix&qid=1715216897&sprefix=matcha+superfood+mi%2Caps%2C519&sr=8-5, but their current price is out of my budget right now.

    As an avid boba drinker- if you want matcha that tastes like something you can get from a good boba cafe, get jade leaf! I love matcha, and I LOVE boba, but it gets pricey to buy boba all the time. Also, getting the cafe style jade leaf matcha powder, which is pre- sweetened, is a bit cheaper than ceremonial but still perfect for satiating my boba cravings. And you can even get a 2 pound container of it, which lasts me months!

    for those who never consumed matcha before, I think you better go for the one that does not have a very strong flavor. because you will feel it, and provably you wont like it.

      I would disagree. I'm eastern European, used to drink black tea all my life. When I first tried green tea, I did not like the taste. Until I found good loose leaf ones, high quality and purest of tastes. Then when I tried matcha, the strongest tasting ones were the ones I gravitated to. They might kick you in the face at the beginning of a sip, but then the sweet aftertaste that follows just lingers so much longer!

    Ceremonial grade Matcha is always better for drinking because it tastes the best. But you can drink culinary grade Matcha too, I do all the time because it's a lot less expensive. You get the same health benefits from both. I have found Kenko brand Matcha to be really good.

      The problem is, it is not regulated. Anyone can call matcha ceremonial. You have to try it and learn from others. In Australia, I buy from Zen Wonders matcha. They have an exceptional range and interestingly don't just sell the best matcha. They sell a range of quality that is appropriately priced. If you want to drink the best matcha they have, the Yukiro matcha is exceptional in every way. The matcha has no astringency, is smooth, creamy, light and earthy and leaves a gentle nutty flavour on completion of the sip. I often taste notes of raw cacao and walnuts. It is absolutely A1 grade and TRUELY a ceremonial quality 👌.

      If you live in the US try kettl, rishi, tea dealers or ippodo. All offer the highest quality matcha you can get in the states. Some can be expensive but you get what you pay for. Don’t buy really expensive matcha unless you intend to make it the traditional way. And do not buy from Amazon as you can’t guarantee its quality.

    I'm new to Matcha but somebody told me about this one I get at a Japanese grocery for $10. It's the standard size I think 30 grams. It has the kind of screw down tin the lady likes, great color, organic, and not too gritty. Also really good taste and not bitter. I'll have to try the one she said was so good but I'm pretty happy with the $10 one.

    I am currently drinking the Naoki Matcha and I honestly like it a lot. It has a mild, semi-sweet scent and tastes amazing. Nice and smooth, doesn’t clump and has a nice clean, medium bodied flavor. I noticed you didn’t mention anything about the flavor or anything, except for it being too fine and the container wasn’t the best. I purchased the larger, soft package which seals well. What is your opinion on flavor of this one?

    Honestly, my Matcha teas get clumpy too so here's a tip for those (esp. those who like it iced)-another method for this purpose: Use a Martini shaker and no I don't drink alcohol at all, but it surprisingly works. Add a small amt. of your milk of choice (or those who prefer it with water), then add matcha powder (depend. on how much u like, try to make a semi-equal, liqiud-matcha powder ration) and add about 1-3 ice cubes. And shake it gently for about 20-30 seconds or so. Also: Highly Recommend SHAKING this Over the Sink. When using a martini shaker, it is capable of flowing out of the top of it.

      I agree with her about Pure Chimp. It's pretty bad. 😠I bought a jar of it last summer out of curiosity and her description is pretty on point. Not worth the price and the glass container allows the tea to oxidize quickly letting it become stale. I read reviews and also check the photos of the tea packaging and description to make sure the tea is grown in Japan, not China. There is a huge difference in color, quality and flavor.

    Sis, the more scent(vanilla or milky smell) means more additives they put and went to a lot of process to tweak its flavor. If you smell it slightly earthy bittery scent, it means it's nearly too pure but fast to expired and they put less preservatives.

    Jade leaf organic culinary is the best taste and value, when you get past that level most ppl can't notice unless they are some sort of tea sommelier professional!! I mean most ppl are bench marking off of starbucks or a local cafe flavour so you don't have to go too crazy picking it out just don't go super cheap. Ceremonial taste better because it is higher quality harvest and that is for sure not what they use when you buy a latte anywhere because it's not cheap.
