Matcharl Kyoto Uji Matcha Powder – Japanese First Harvest Green Tea, Stone-Ground, Ceremonial Grade (40g), Gold

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

After examining the quality and colour of the tea powder, and then tasting the final tea itself, you would know the product label is all false commitments You could also use chatGPT to double check everything.

Matcha has been all the craze, and as a newbie I had no idea there was so much information online regarding matcha powders. I know it’s apart of Japanese culture, so there’s a lot of history and tradition surrounding it, but on apps like Tik Tok it’s become so popular that it’s created its own separate massive community. I knew it was trendy, but not THAT trendy. Honestly, all I wanted was a matcha latte and I thought making it at home would be simple…but no…I had to use my college level research skills to figure out what powder to even get. It seems like 95% of the matcha powders are sold out because of their popularity, and so it was really hard trying to find recommended powders without spending a lot of money, waiting for long shipping, or stalking websites for restocks…which I really didn’t want to deal with. So, to all of you reading this who are in the same boat, this is a great matcha powder. Buy it!! I made my first drink and absolutely loved it. I can’t handle bitterness and experienced no bitterness with this powder, so if you hate bitter things you’ll love this! (Recommendation: whisk the matcha with cold/room temperature water or milk to make it less bitter! Also, using milk makes it super creamy and sweet tasting. I used oat milk!) There are some reviews saying it smells bad, but I think the powder smells insanely good. When it’s mixed in with a liquid it does smell more earthy, but it doesn’t translate to the taste at all. To me it smells sweet with a nice earthy/floral and nutty tone that isn’t too strong, but just right. The color is a very vibrant green which apparently means it’s higher quality. I had no issues with clumpiness when mixing the powder either. Overall, I’m super happy and super relieved. I was worried it would be bitter and I would not like it, but it’s absolutely delicious. I’m happy I found something that is actually in stock and a decent price for the size, while being super high quality and fairly perfect in all aspects. I can’t wait to experiment with it more!! Also stop overthinking and just buy this matcha powder. If you don’t you’ll end up in a never ending matcha powder research loop like I did.

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!

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

It’s good, not bad or great just good. It’s very light bodied, flavor kinda gets lost in the milk so def use more matcha & less milk. The color is more of a yellowish green than a vibrant green, but still very colorful! This matcha is not bad at all for its price and you do get what you pay for. It’s very vegetal and slightly umami, not bitter at all. If you like lighter matchas, this one’s for you!
