Let us know and we will gladly refund your money in full Review: I just like the stuff - KENKO Matcha- premium Matcha IS DELICIOUS!!! I am no matcha expert, I just like the stuff. I have liked matcha for about 10 years and my personal opinion is: Good matcha is probably one of the best flavors ever. This is great matcha. When I opened it, the first thing I noticed was the smell; it smelled sweet! It was earthy, because it is ground up leaves after all, and there was no hint of seaweed, which you can get with lower grade matcha. The color matched the label. I have tried it hot, cold, with and without a splash of milk. The taste is what I consider what true matcha is supposed to taste like. it is sweet and smooth and makes ice water a bit more refreshing. I keep the matcha in the refrigerator or freezer, but it can be stored in a cupboard. I have used culinary grade matcha like green food coloring, it adds a depth of flavor and doesn't die your mouth colors as you eat the Christmas/St Patrick's Day frosted cupcakes. I use a long time favorite recipe and adding a spoonful has never thrown off the cooking chemistry. You can make muffins, cakes, cookies, ice cream, etc... or just sprinkle a little on top. The Matcha you get at most coffee shops is a Matcha Syrup, if you want that same flavor you will need to add lots of sugar to your drinks. WHY THE PRICE IS WAT IT IS: Regular tea preparation: Pick the leaves, dry the leaves, crunch the leaves, put them in a tea bag. Matcha Tea preparation: Pick the leaves, de-stem the leaves, de-vein the leaves, dry the leaves, powder the leaves. There is extra man power involved in removing the stems and veins, and it takes longer to turn the leaves into a powder. *UPDATE* 5 Days ago I received an e-mail, as I do with most products that I order on desertcart, asking for a review. Attached was a PDF with information on what the product was, recipes, health benefits, how it's made etc... it was 8 pages long and I have printed it out for future use. All of the information could be found on the KENKO website (One of the reasons I purchased this tea was because they had an informative website) I encourage people to research what matcha is, before purchasing. People, please keep in mind that this product is powdered leaves, not dehydrated drink powder or flavored sugar powder. Real matcha does not disintegrate with water/milk like a chocolate milk mix, it floats in the liquid, if you let your cup sit for a long time it will settle on the bottom. the reason it is so healthy is because you are consuming the whole leaf and not just the water Review: I like it. - I don’t know a lot about matcha but I really like this. I got it because of the cat on the bag. It is very green and very good. I do 2 bamboo scoops in 3/4 cup hot water, mix it, and add 1/4 soy milk for a matcha late. Beats ⭐️bucks green sugar powder latte. This isn’t sweet but it doesn’t need sweetener. It is not bitter, I think. It might taste grassy but I can’t tell. Overall my little latte is good and I will probably order this again. It is expensive, like very, but it is good. The bag half fills an amber 12oz mason jar, maybe. There isn’t much here but I don't use much to make a latte either. ## Features - ✓137 X the ANTIOXIDANTS OF REGULAR GREEN TEA - May Enhance Focus, help Increase Energy, or Aid Meditation! - ✓ CEREMONIAL GRADE MATCHA Tea - Shade Grown, Hand Picked Tea Leaves.

I haven't tried a Matcha before.** A: Hi JacyKat,Yes you can definitely drink it as a tea (that's how most people drink ceremonial matcha) but I would recommend searching for some guides on preparing matcha tea - as you do need some accessories like a sift, bamboo whisk or electric frother to get the best results.It isn't like a typical cup of tea you'd prepare with a teabag - it's generally much less water and the tea powder is mixed into the water and you then ingest the entire tea leaf with the water.Regards,Sam JamesDirector - Kenko Tea **Q: Is this grade of kenko tea better than the organic kenko tea? What is the difference?** A: Hi Janet,This is the same ceremonial grade in terms of quality - but this one isn't Certified USDA organic. There is a small difference in flavor, I actually prefer the non organic matcha's as there is more freedom with the farming methods and fertilizers used and I feel it produces a better flavor - but overall they are very similar.Like all our matcha's we receive regular heavy metal, radiation and pesticide tests to ensure safety of our teas.The major difference is if the Organic certification is important to you, and a small price difference.Kind Regards,Sam JamesDirector - Kenko Tea **Q: Is this product tested for radiation and heavy metals , Thanks** A: HI Ebtisam,Yes absolutely. We receive monthyl Radiation Testing for all our matcha and Annual Heavy Metals testing. Please message me directly for a copy of the lab resultsRegards,Sam JamesDirector - Kenko Tea **Q: What is the harvest date for the ceremonial matcha that is being sold currently?** A: It is from the 2019 Harvest season in May. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I just like the stuff *by P***R on March 20, 2016* KENKO Matcha- premium Matcha IS DELICIOUS!!!

The tea comes in a small tin with screw-on lid so it stays fresh for longer. It froths easily even though my whisking technique isn't that great and I have noticed a significant energy boost after I drink it. The taste is very mild. It is neither sweet nor bitter like any matcha or other green teas I've had before. I do wish it had more of a "bite" to it, but the price, freshness, and vibrant color have made it a worthwhile purchase. ## Frequently Bought Together - KENKO - Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder - 1st Harvest - Special Drinking Blend for Top Flavor - Best Tasting Premium Matcha Tea Powder - Japanese -30g [1oz] - KENKO Matcha Green Tea Powder [USDA Organic] Highest Ceremonial Grade, Authentic Japanese, Premium 1st Harvest, 1 oz (30 servings) - Jade Leaf Matcha Organic Green Tea Powder - Culinary Grade Premium Second Harvest - Authentic Japanese Origin (1.06 Ounce Resealable Pouch) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/18668964-kenko-ceremonial-grade-matcha-green-tea-powder-1st-harvest-special](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/18668964-kenko-ceremonial-grade-matcha-green-tea-powder-1st-harvest-special) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-10-19*
