Kiyo Matcha Premium Grade Toyokage Ceremonial Uji Matcha - Pure Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Uji, Japan (40g/1.41oz)

I am new to matcha and have tried 4-5 five different brands is this price point and this the best one so far. Richest green, Nice creaminess not a lot of bitter notes but still rich in flavor. Still learning and exploring but I am sure I will circle back to this one. Sorry for the crappy photo was reviewing the whisk and that was the focus of the photo but you can see the nice foam and the rich green color. Want to give update several month later. First I want to be clear what version I order. It was Kiyo Matcha Premium Grade Toyokage Ceremonial Uji Matcha - Pure Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Uji, Japan (40g/1.4oz) I have had over a dozen matcha now and at least 3 of these were superior. However those there were also significantly more expensive. The best was more than double price per gram and the other two about 20% more in price. One other observation I see with these teas is that the greener teas tend to have a little more moisture so they tend to clump a little more so you definitely have to use a sifter. It's counterintuitive, but the dryer tees are actually easier to mix, but I also think when you over dry delicate matcha and the tea you lose some flavor. I still stand by this being an excellent tea and I think it was separates it from a lot of others. It's a solid value at the high end. It's no longer the best tea I've tasted, but it's in the top 25% and I'm only talking about high end Matcha tea.

Very good matcha

Real premium matcha. Great deep taste, very high quality

I had the Premium blend. Solid for it's price point ($30 at time of review). It's become somewhat difficult to find matcha so I've extended to different brands and tried this one. I've had other brands that charge this much for inferior matcha. This is high quality. I would describe the flavor profile as nutty. If you like the flavor profile more than I'd do it'd be 5 stars. It's not my daily so that's why it's 4.

Slightly bitter flavor will be continuing to use Akira or chaism Matcha

Taste is well balanced with a strong strength of caffeine.

was a little skeptical buying from amazon but with the matcha shortage, i had run out of the matcha i had bought previously. this is actually a great matcha! the color is a vibrant deep green, it comes double sealed in a tin can and a bag, and it has about 20 servings in the tin. it’s great whisked traditionally, or cold whisked. it has slightly nutty notes, has great umami and mouth feel, and tastes pretty good! i would compare it to yomo no kaori from yamamasa yoyamaen, it’s honestly worth a buy!

Great matcha!! Good taste, great quality.
