Organic Matcha Green Tea Powder, 2 lb | First Harvest Culinary Grade | Single-Ingredient Green Tea Powder | Certified Organic | Gluten, Dairy, Soy & Tree Nut Free

This product is better than the matcha powder mix used at Starbucks! Starbucks uses a 51% sugar mix with questionably sourced matcha/sencha making up the other 49%. It has no tea flavor as it's basically just sweetened milk. If you've come to matcha through the Starbucks lens, this is NOT that product. It's what you should be drinking instead! When I've tried to get matcha powder locally at the grocery store, I've not been able to find one that is the same quality as this in such a value size quantity. For size reference, I'm pretty sure this size bag could last one person 3mos even if they were drinking a matcha latte everyday. This matcha here packs a bolder flavor, a better boost of energy, and more mental clarity without the crash that you'd have from coffee. It is unsweetened, which gives you the freedom to make the final product (latte, smoothie, whatever) as sweet or unsweet as you like. The powder is ULTRA fine, and is about the consistency of powdered sugar. It dissolves wonderfully in a few ounces of the liquid of your choice (I prefer oatmilk), and it suspends very nicely and does not sink to the bottom when at rest for a few moments. All around highly recommend. Unless you're Japanese and have had that real good stuff and would know the difference, this is probably good enough for most people.

Very strong matcha and a good bulk option for the price. We used it for our coffee cart and a little goes a long way, so it is great for making larger batches. The flavour is bold and works well for iced matcha drinks, especially when mixed with milk and syrups.

Lighly sweet. Tastes good hot or cold. Mixes better in hot water, so I make a small pitcher for iced-tea for the day to get lots of anti oxidants.

I have been a sushi chef for over 40 years and have pretty good taste buds and know my green tea.. I have never left an Amazon review before this one and felt compelled to to so with this brand matcha. I ran out of the Microingredients brand matcha and used another brand this morning. The other brand was bitter and not what I was expecting, so I ordered another bag of the Microingredients brand, immediately. It has such a better taste than the other stuff I bought. It actually has a sweet aftertaste and is simply much better with way better flavor. You get what you pay for. Cheers and enjoy riding the matcha train.

New to matcha. Mixes well, tastes fine, but there's this weird suspicion that it's spinach powder which I have experience with. Is it just me?
