MATCHA DNA Certified Organic Matcha Green Tea Powder (12 oz BAG)

Pros: • Unsweetened • Good for lattes, smoothies, and baking • Large size, lasts a long time • Smooth texture, mixes well Solid everyday matcha, especially for recipes and drinks where you mix it with milk or other ingredients. Good value for the size and quality.

Let’s first begin with the packaging. I purchased the 16oz tin. It is packaged beautifully in a box with its own opening tab that you pull and the box opens. I then noticed the spoon was packaged outside the tin, thank you for not burying it in the matcha like when you get protein powder and you have to be an archaeologist and find the scoop! The tin was vacuum sealed, upon opening, do it slowly or matcha will fly all over, I noticed the matcha had a nice color with an earthy smell. I have been drinking matcha for years, even before it was a fad. I have tried a lot of brands, sweetened and unsweetened. I like a nice earthy taste to my matcha with a hint of sweetness sometimes, but not always. I always mix my powder with hot water first with a hand held frother. I added two scoops because again, I like the earthiness. It blends very nicely and I got a little froth which is great. I then added my protein non dairy milk and some ice. It tastes fantastic. Nice and earthy and as you can see has a nice color, it’s not brown which you can get from bad matcha or low grade leaves. I will keep my tin in the fridge for freshness as the ingredient will stay fresher. It is also nice for days when you don’t want the coffee buzz as this is low caffeine but a sustained caffeine. Coffee gives you that quick boost that doesn’t last, matcha is a long slow boost. All in all I am very pleased with the product and 1 ingredient list and would recommend to anyone who enjoys the natural flavor of matcha.

For the money, you really can’t go wrong with this giant, one pound can of matcha powder! At just over a dollar an ounce, this will go a long way without erasing your bank account. It comes in a tightly sealed metal can similar to ground coffee, without a plastic bag inside the tin. I’ve tried several much more expensive matcha powders, and I’ll explain the main differences between this DNA matcha and the others… The DNA matcha powder is on the duller green side when I compare it with the bright green color of more expensive matches, and while the aroma is there, it definitely doesn’t ‘jump out’ like the others. The seal should preserve it as it was when packaged, so this blend might not use the freshest green leaves of the more expensive brands. With that in consideration, if you’re really used to the good stuff, you might be disappointed, but this matcha is still better tasting than a few of the pricier ones. There is a very slight bitterness, but I can live with that. If you like to bake with matcha, THIS is a steal. I really like matcha lattes and smoothies and tend to use double the powder in my drinks to get a thicker and stronger flavor. This size package will be perfect for me, but I expect it would get stale if you’re a casual user. I’ll update my review if I note a lot of oxidation or bitterness before It’s used up. The texture of this matcha powder is excellent. It blends without lots of little clumps, and results in a smooth, slightly gritty consistency. It froths nicely with either a traditional matcha wisk or a battery powered one.

It's excellent for the non-conissouirs. Great price for quantity and size. Great for entry level barristas. Minimal caffeine. Low sweetness. I use it to sprite up my protein shakes. Also mocktail beverages. Aromatic when made to tea. Not suoer high quality but otherwise smooth and easy to work with. Im not a pro so not sure what other helpful things to say. Im happy with it.

I absolutely love the quality for the price! I've started using this as my coffee replacement in the mornings. I love it too for boosting my health. I don't feel sluggish by noon and it's just enough caffeine to get me going without jitters. I've always loved the earthy flavor of matcha and this product delivers that. It's prefect for the morning matcha latte and blends smoothly, and I cannot resist it's beautiful green color. I appreciate it has no sugar and I can dress it up to my desire. The amount you get for the price is amazing.

Very nice matcha. Nice flavor and texture. I will buy again.

As an old dude (81) I have relied on Earl Gray black tea, or coffee, for a stimulating buzz. But they always end up leaving me with a tightness in the gut after a few days; plus this seems to prevent deeper sleep. Macha is new to me. I got a product with Macha and other ingredients which I mix into a morning fruit smoothie. I have to say that I do get a nice wake-up stimulus, and without the bad side effect. Thus i am now trying pure Macha by itself. My initial report is that it tastes like seaweed to me, but if I find using it in the morning proves to have less side effects, I will continue it and I'm sure my body will learn to love it.

I bought the Matcha DNA Organic Matcha Powder to make lattes, smoothies, and even baked treats at home, and it has quickly become my favorite pantry staple. The flavor is vibrant and earthy without any bitterness, and the fine texture makes it easy to whisk into both hot and cold liquids for a smooth, frothy latte. I’ve experimented with smoothies and matcha pancakes, and the color stays beautifully bright while the taste remains clean and natural. The XXL 16oz tin is generous, and I appreciate that it’s USDA Organic, gluten-free, and vegan, so I feel good about using it daily. My only tiny note is that a bamboo whisk or frother gives the best texture, but the powder itself is top-quality and versatile for any recipe.

No es el original,su contextura es oscura,para su precio creo que no es lo adecuado,para tal precio mejor se compra un té verde,que viene siendo lo mismo que este.

Good quality. I have tried other Matcha but it's taste is better.

It is really good but I wish the grade was better. It’s a great bang for your buck but if you are used to more “ceremonial” grade this is far from it. Good for baking, but drinking it’s ok.

Bon produit pour le prix honnêtement! C’est sûr que ça ne goûte pas le matcha de luxe mais pour un matcha de tous les jours à la maison c’est vraiment bien, il se dilue vraiment bien dans l’eau et ne fais pas de « motons » comme certains matchas!

Really good. Tasty.
