Maeda Shiki Matcha Green Tea, 1-Ounce

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!

Amazing taste for the price. Super affordable compared to other matcha brands and you definitely get an amazing quality and flavor for the price. This tastes just like a ceremonial matcha!

The media could not be loaded. Taste is 8/10, could be better

Absolutely incredible. I bought this to test out just to see how it compared to some of the pricey Matcha powders I use. Will be keeping this in my rotation as an everyday matcha. It's a great beginner matcha as well as a pro matcha drinker too. It's good as just a tea and as a latte.. This matcha powder can go head to head with some of the more expensive brands and beat them out of the water without even trying. This is such a great matcha.

Very good matcha overall, especially when you price compare to many big name 'ceremonial' brands that deliver gritty, bitter nastiness for double the price. Been in my daily rotation for years. It's not the best matcha out there by far, but it's a great balance of quality to price. Foams nicely with a hand matcha whisk and always passes the smear test. Very good as both simple matcha and in a latte or in baked goods.

I’ve tried different matchas and this one is my favorite very smooth and great flavor.

I’ve only recently started making matcha at home and this matcha powder is better than the expensive one I bought last month. There’s a good amount that comes in the packet, there’s a nice balance of sweet and umami flavors, doesn’t lose flavor when mixed into a latte, and was very easy to whisk. Beautiful color as well

Honestly just not my thing but it wasn’t bad just could be better in my opinion would be better for baking
