  • Lovely and smooth. More grassy than umami
Size: 1.41 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Deliciously smooth and clearly high quality. Each flavor is defined and blends into the next. It was very grassy and not much umami, so not my personal favorite type of matcha but the matcha itself was phenomenal nonetheless. Due to a not super strong umami, it wasn’t bitter at all, so great for beginners if you don’t mind a grassy flavor. My dad loved it! ... show more

  • Amazing quality, creamy matcha
Size: 1.41 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Wow - such great quality matcha! The taste is amazing on its own, but it is also fun to make into a matcha latte. You know it is good quality when the color is bright and vibrant, this just checks all the boxes. And straight from Japan! A little on the expensive side, but still cheaper to make at home than buying 10 matcha drinks out at a cafe. Highly recommend!! ... show more

  • Healthy and delicious...
Size: 1.41 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm not gonna lie I am a very picky person when it comes to what I both eat and drink. My mornings have always consisted of very sweet coffee, mainly sweetened with just a creamer. After years of constantly feeking tired in the middle of the day and an upset stomach, I decided to do some research and try something else. Tea was my only other option when it came to a hot beverage in the mornings. More research and I landed on Matcha. This brand in particular. Iposddo Sayaka was suggested by many for a first time Matcha drinker. This is my second order of it. From what I've learned its not too hard to tell whether or not its fresh or stale, what ive biught twice now has been fresh and since I use 1 tsp a day, so far its stayed fresh until the end. Yes it smells like grass and earth, but to me personally it smells amazing. I sweeten it with a little bit if Maple syrup. Every morning I heat my water to 176, sift and whisk, add a little more water and my syrup and I can honestly say within the first 3 days of drinking this in the morning and a classic green tea on the go, I have felt so much better. My mood as lightened, I don't have a crash in the middle of the day. My energy has definitely increased. Straight out of the package it's a very vibrant green, it blends amazingly, I have not had any issues with grittyness, it froths as it's supposed to when whisked and heated properly. As for quality, I don't have a comparison, but as far as I'm concerned and what I've researched this really is great quality, its rich, earthy, and honeslty just really healthy. I will Def be buying again for the 3rd time soon. I highly recommend this product for anyone wanting try Match Tea for the first time, but please do your own research and follow what you feel is best for you. ... show more

  • First time Match Experience
Size: 1.41 Ounce (Pack of 1)
The media could not be loaded. his is my first Match tea experience. According to their website, they recommend Sayaka for your first matcha experience. The reason I am first trying this out is because I want to veer away from the morning coffee routine and try something different. I was a little skeptical of whether matcha tea would give me the same energy boost as a typical expresso (which I normally drink). But surely, it has the same power of an expresso. They recommend 1tsp for every 2oz of boiling water. To me 2oz of tea is just not enough. So I used 1 tsp for 8 oz boiling water mixed with 1tsp of sugar and 4 oz of froth milk. and still get the same boost of energy from the tea. I could not image drinking this as a 2 oz/1tsp shot. I do enjoy the experience of drinking matcha tea and have gradually made the switch. Yes, I still enjoy an expresso latte from time to time. As for the product, It is much smaller than I thought, but in reality, if you have a larger size, it would just go bad possible after a month after opening from oxidation. So the size of the packaging is understandable. According to the website, the best before date is 180 days after packaging. ... show more

  • Tastes great! 🌱🐢🎍🍵
Size: 0.7 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is a little pricey…but it was worth it since I don’t drink matcha everyday. It’s still a learning process for me trying new matchas and comparing the taste, quality, color, and so on…but this one tasted awesome! I loved playing around and adding syrups to mine like strawberry and blueberry. YUMMMM! ... show more

  • Good starter matcha, delicious and good price point
Size: 1.41 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I’ve read that for good ceremonial matcha, one should look for a price point of about $1/gram. This is closer to 90 cents a gram and worth every penny. Nice umami flavor rounds out with pleasant, not overwhelming, sweetness. Made with chasen/chawan, about 2 grams (so, two little bamboo scoops) to 70 ml of water, probably at 85°C—I heat the kettle to 90, but by the time I’ve rinsed the bowl & whisk the water is a bit cooler. I started drinking matcha to replace coffee in the mornings; at first I started with another matcha from ippodo, horai-no-mukashi, which is earthier but I find the flavor of this matcha, sayaka-no-mukashi, more dynamic and more balanced. There’s another review that says this is would probably be a good starter matcha, but that it lacks significant character. As a new matcha drinker, I agree that this is a great starter matcha! It feels like you can taste all the different directions matcha’s flavor profile can take, without being pulled too far in one direction or another (nutty, umami, bitter, sweet, creamy....it’s balanced between all of these.) I’m excited to try some more and higher-end matchas from ippodo, to see what shape a matcha with more character might take. If you’re thinking of switching to matcha from coffee, give this stuff a try—with the caveat that you might need to drink two bowls of matcha in the morning rather than one to begin with (which factors into the price; switching to matcha from coffee is definitely an expensive investment in long-term health!)—I found that the first week, if I didn’t have two bowls in the morning I’d become sluggish after about an hour, but two bowls kept me focused and alert without the anxiety & hand-shaking I’ve come to associate with a morning coffee. Now that it’s been more like two and a half weeks since I switched, I’m finding the caffeine from the second bowl a bit too strong. Might try one bowl in the morning and another for a mid-day pick-me-up....the meditative process of whisking the tea, and the flavor of this matcha, is a real treat I look forward to every day! ... show more
