Naoki Matcha Superior Ceremonial Blend – Authentic Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Uji, Kyoto (100g / 3.5oz)

It was not a vivid green color. Disappointing

I was excited to order again because I loved this product before, but the quality has really gone downhill. The matcha is no longer vibrant green and instead looks pale and low grade. Such a waste of money. Lesson learned — always check the latest reviews first.

I’m a regular matcha drinker and I’m used to very high-quality matcha. I ordered this one after reading the positive reviews, but unfortunately it was very disappointing. The color is dull and looks oxidized, which is usually a sign of poor quality or old matcha. The taste is also not good at all and far from what a proper matcha should taste like. I bought the 100g bag and unfortunately I would not recommend this matcha.

Wirklich sehr guter und leckerer Matcha 🍵 für zuhause 🏡 Schönes Grün sehr weich im Geschmack und nicht bitter 🤍🌸

It’s pretty good but not the best

This stuff is smooth. No hint of bitterness in sight. Its so smooth I actually preferred to mix it 50/50 with Jade Leaf in my Matcha lattes. Its just amazing Matcha.. so good I started occasionally drinking it by itself not as a latte... the flavors present in just the tea (no milk, no sugar, etc) is insane. Umami, savory, very minimal mineral/bitter tastes. So if you like mineral tasting matcha, try Dens tea Restaurant Matcha... it has a very strong mineraly taste. This is almost the opposte. One thing to note, this stuff is so smooth and lacks bitterness that I actually have to use 3.5g instead of 3g like I do with Jade leaf... but once you get the strength dialed in it is MINT. I personally dont care about any clumping etc because I whisk my matcha with an electric frother in about 2 oz of water before adding milk or anything else.. even the matcha i had in my fridge which got clumpy from condensation didtn stand a chance... so if you ever have lumpy matcha.. its your fault, not the matchas fault. FYI. I dont mind the Jade leaf at all (for lattes)... in fact I wil gladly use it if its on sale.. but this is objectively the better matcha. If you plan to drink by itself, dont even consider jade leaf.. I am speaking specifically for lattes... Naoki is the only one you want to drink straight. But if you are a latte person.. either one is good quality and a buy again from me.

لذيذ جدا لكنه غالي

I’ve tried different matcha powders but this one was quality. It was tasty and a beautiful green color.
