Shiki Matcha - Green Tea Powder, 28g | Pure stone-ground culinary matcha tea powder. Vibrant green color flavor enhancer ideal for home baking latte drinks

Bought it as it was recommended by a Japanese acquaintance. It’s packaged in a sealed bag and then placed inside a sealed tin to ensure that it is fresh. I have used this to make matcha smoothies and it’s got that lovely, yummy matcha flavour that I was after. I will be using this to make some matcha baked goods as well.

Love it!

Much smaller than I expected but it’s fine cause you only need a little bit each time

This may say 'universal quality' on the tin but I have found it to be smoother and sweeter than some other green teas labelled as 'ceremonial grade'. I use 1/2 teaspoon and mix with hot water using a chasen. Recommended. Fyi, I bought this through Amazon but yet again 'verified purchase' is not highlighted so this is my last review for amazon.

Lovely! I am no expert, this is the first matcha tea I've tried; was a bit apprehensive but it is very pleasant. I add a very small quantilty of cooled boiled water, mix it to a paste and then add a little more until the powder is dissolved. Top up with water to required strength. Shame it costs so much on Amazon, I found mine for £8.80 in an oriental store. Will definitely get more, only need small quantities to make a cup, so should last a while.

Probably a mix of leaves rather than pure Tencha. I just wanted something cheap to get over my matcha latte cravings but this is not it. Tastes like the quality you would get at a sushi chain-restaurant, so yes it has that umami seaweed flavour and a bright lime colour, but it does not taste like pure matcha (100% ground tencha). It lacks depth.

I read about the benefits of your matcha tee and bought it. So far I don't feel any positive or negative effect, but I continue to use.😉

Not enough for price but good quality, very tasty

I cannot believe I got such a flavorful matcha at such a price point. The color, texture, and flavors completely outperform most of the (much) more expensive matchas I’ve purchased for lattes. Quality stuff here! A decently sized tin at such a price in 2025 is hard to come by. I’ve only tried this matcha as a latte—not usucha or koicha, but some people may enjoy it that way, I don’t know. The texture of the matcha is very fine, no grittiness at all. It blended up like a dream with my chasen. I enjoyed it unsweetened with soy milk, iced, and really love it. Good umami, low astringency (but enough the be tasted through the milk—just how I like it,) no fishy or seaweed quality at all. It’s a very earthy/grassy matcha but that’s what I was looking for, anyhow. Ratio of 5g to 9oz soy milk. Cannot recommend this product enough!

This matcha is delicious. I love the taste and it is great quality. I would say definitely sift it with a strainer before preparing your matcha drink. I accidentally skipped that step this morning and I got chunks.

perfect matcha, great price.

Absolutely in love with this matcha powder ! 10/10 would recommend! It’s delicious!
