Naoki MatchaOrganic Ceremonial First Spring Blend – Authentic Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Kagoshima, Japan (40g / 1.4oz)USDA Organic

This matcha blend is high quality - not clumpy, smooth, and tastes amazing. I love the fact that the quality of matcha is comparable to that from more expensive brands. I'm so glad I no longer have to spend money on overpriced matcha drinks as I can now make them at home. I bought an electric frother and have been making all kinds of matcha drinks myself from strawberry matcha, matcha coconut, to matcha earl grey. Beware that each serving has 64mg of caffeine, which is equivalent to one shot of espresso.

I made an afternoon drink with the matcha mixed into warm water and I noticed that the powder whisked into a smooth foam without any grit. The color was also a brighter and deeper green than other matcha I have tasted. I made a second cup using the traditional bamboo whisk and bowl. The flavor was mellow, and there was almost no bitterness. It worked great to drink straight without any sweetener.

After finding this wooden whisk I looked it up what’s it for which led me to discover matcha tea and its health benefits. Then a random matcha video came up on my YouTube and took the risk of buying this expensive matcha powder to try it. Didn’t even consider ordering matcha latte at Starbucks or other bubble tea shops first for some reason. The risk was worth it. My matcha latte was so good. I also added crystal pearls into my drink. Thought I would drink a 16oz/day but love it so much I drink 2/day. I’ve been an espresso drinker or just drink simple tea. I haven’t drank coffee since making the switch. 2 weeks later, there was a new boba shop promotion and I decide to order an iced matcha latte that I’ve been drinking. It was terrible so full of bad sugar. I took a couple of sips and dumped it. Couldn’t finish it. Ordered another matcha latte on my free birthday drink at BR and that was terrible too. Dumped that. I will try Starbucks next to see if their matcha latte is any good.Now I make my own iced matcha latte with honey. Bought a milk frother to get the right level of milk foam and steam milk. I have the right level of sweetness and taste. No after taste or need to brush my teeth afterwards.

I tried this matcha recently, and it tastes really good! I paired it with oat milk and a splash of oat creamer, which made it super smooth and creamy. The matcha itself has a rich, earthy flavor and a really vibrant green color—so fresh-looking and energizing. Definitely a new favorite!

Perfect matcha for making at home! Takes practice, but each time I make it, the better it gets. Just as good as going out to the coffee shop. I’ve tried Jade Leaf in the past and actually noticed the difference in quality compared to that one. I like to make my matcha with oatmilk and honey. Super smooth, tasty, and feel ready for the day after drinking this.

Absolutely love this matcha! I just wish I could order an even larger quantity, it's that good. No complaints at all. Excellent company and a top-quality product. I used 2 oz, and it's always rich, vibrant, and the perfect color. Really hoping they never change a thing! I’ve tried other types of matcha and I love them as well. 🫶🏽

Wow, this matcha is the real deal! I drink around 1.5g with plain hot water (ceremonial style) almost everyday. No blandness and yet not overpowering or overly bitter either. It has a beautiful deep, bright green You can see & taste the great care was taken in preparing this product.. Glad I took the leap on this one. Thank you Naoki for real, organic, traditional style matcha powder.

This is AMAZING! If you’re thinking about buying it, DO IT!!! I was worried it wouldn’t be good but it’s delicious and I’m picky about my Matcha! It’s perfect for a delicious matcha but not super duper expensive. I had tried this matcha from Costco and it was just not good for lattes. This superior ceremonial grade matcha is perfect, vibrant green, and not bitter at all.UPDATE:I made an earl grey matcha latteITS LITERALLY SO GOOD!Steep 3 bags of earl grey tea with 1 cup of waterBring it to a boil and let it steep for a few minutes (no more than 5)Add 1 cup of sugar and dissolveThat’s it you got earl grey syrup for the perfect matcha latte!
