For special moments or matcha enthusiasts!

This matcha really impressed me. The color is a beautiful, vibrant green, and the flavour has this unique nutty umami depth that. It’s smooth and naturally sweet as an usucha, and it holds up perfectly in a latte without losing its character. It’s definitely a splurge, but for special moments or if you’re really into matcha, it’s absolutely worth it.

Highly Recommend

I've been drinking matcha tea for over 10 years, and this is easily one of the best matcha powders I've tried! It has such a beautiful, rich, complex, and smooth flavor, along with a vibrant, emerald green shade.

It's definitely worth every penny. My sister, who is a beginner matcha drinker, was also amazed by it. We’ve already repurchased because we love it so much.

Worth It!!

I saw a bunch of influencers raving about this matcha and was curious to try after buying their hojicha powder (which was amazing) and it did not disappoint! It definitely comes at a higher price point but it's one of the most well-balanced and complex matchas I ever tried. Works really well in both an usucha and in a latte, which is hard to find. Will definitely buy again!! LOVE this brand.
