HAYASHIYA Matcha Powder - Fuji - Kyoto Uji Ceremonial Grade, First Harvest Stone Milled Authentic Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder (40g / 1.4oz)

My sister and I had a chance to visit Uji last year. We attended some traditional tea ceremonies and tasted various exquisite matcha. That trip definitely set a high bar! So, I was genuinely pleased to find this HAYASHIYA Fuji matcha available here – it really hits the mark for authentic quality. First off, the color is that vibrant, deep green you look for in a good first-harvest ceremonial grade. It's a super fine powder and whisks up beautifully smooth. Taste-wise, it strikes a wonderful balance. It's got that lovely smoothness, a noticeable savory umami depth, and a natural sweetness that lingers just right. Honestly, it reminds me strongly of the high-quality bowls I enjoyed in Uji. It's now my go-to morning cup at the office – literally the first thing I make when I get in (yes, I keep a proper whisk (chasen) and matcha bowl there).

Ive recently been super into drinking matcha and have purchased many different kinds, this one in particular is so great, the flavor is wonderful and the effect is great you’ll end up full of energy.

The media could not be loaded. This matcha is great for the price! The color is a gorgeous dark green and has medium flavor. It leaves my mouth a little dry and it's not that sweet on my tongue. The matcha lingers around for a little before taking another sip. It smells and tastes more on the vegetal side. I prefer sweet creamy matchas but this is definitely not bad, especially for daily. It's perfect for regular matcha fans, beginners and matcha lovers alike. 😊

Love it tast a little sour but is good

Amazing taste and color! You can tell it is original from Japan. Definitely recommend

Out of the 5 matcha brands I've tried this has been the best and strongest one. I usually make koicha and found the hotter the water the bitterness goes up,and,from what I understand is the caffeine showing up,so,depending on my caffeine needs I adjust water temp,140 is slight bitterness and at175/180 it a little more. So good I subscribed to get it monthly.

Would not recommend ordering through amazon since its not the first time I’ve had a package get damaged during delivery. Please reconsider spending your money from a company that can’t take care of your product and buy it directly from the website.The matcha overall is good. But since you can taste the chocolate and nutty flavor it has i recommend having it as a latte

It's a gorgeous vibrant green color and the flavor is yummy. In a latte it kind of reminds me of honey nut cheerios milk but just imagine it not as sweet, so it pairs beautifully with agave! However, I found this powder to not be as smooth & it doesn't froth up as well for me... It's a bit on the grainy side but I just whisk as much as I can because it's still very delicious and yummy. It just doesn't whisk up as fast as some other matcha powders I own. The powder has a yummy toasty scent as well. I would repurchase
