Matcharl Matcha Powder, Japanese Ceremonial Grade, 40g/1.4oz - TAROU(太郎) - | Authentic Japanese First Harvest Matcha from Uji, Kyoto | Stone-Milled | Smooth Umami | Made in Japan

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

Excellent , great flavor, gray color. I got it on sale so it was a really good price as well but even full price. This is very nice and it is different than cheaper matches that have a planner color and a more grassy flavor. The ceremonial grade matches have a better smoother cleaner flavor if you’re wondering.

I usually get the naoki brand, but saw this was on sale and wanted to try!! For half the price is it quite good and still renders a high quality bright green matcha. It is a little more grassy and not as smooth and floral as some of the Naoki blends but delicious nonetheless. It blends smoothly with a bamboo whisk, no clumpiness or chalkiness. Lovely for the cost!

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 was very good! It made a really nice foam on top when whisking and tastes very creamy. Keep in mind a little goes a longgg way when making this. For reference, i used about 1/2 cup of milk to make a latte and only used 1 1/2 teaspoons of matcha and the flavor was very strong:) The matcha has a very floraly scent when first smelling it and tastes the same too it’s delicious!! also it’s such a good price especially if you’re someone who makes a latte everyday- the matcha flavor really stands out!

Nice flavor matcha for my matcha lattes! 10 out of 10 recommended to buy. It’s affordable for the price and a good quantity of match comes in the tin.
