Matcha Green Tea Powder 15.3oz/434g, Starter Matcha Culinary For Lattes, Cooking, Baking

you get a LOT of matcha in the bag. And most recipes only call for tablespoons at a time so you can get a lot of milage from it. Its nice quality, could be better but for the price it's pretty good. Very bright green and fragrant when you first open it, which is great. also, this is CULINARY grade matcha. it is NOT for drinking. culinary grade is of "lower" quality than ceremonial grade matcha, which is what is used in drinks. so it has a grasser flavor profile and not as sweet as other matchas, but that's how it should be for culinary grade matcha

Tiktok tried to convince me I need ceremonial grade matcha and that special wooden whisk but I was able to make my first ever iced matcha latte with this powder and a regular electric whisk and it was delicious! I could never justify spending more on matcha powder after trying this one. The price is right and the flavor is perfect!

This was a learning experience. I'd never bought Matcha powder before. I've had Matcha Lattes at Starbucks & Soylent Matcha Flavor Boosters & such. Seemed like a good idea to buy it in bulk to mix my own. So the learning experience? First off this is a product of China. That is clearly stated in description so I won't rate it down for that. 2nd this is unsweetened matcha powder so very bitter. That should be expected being a green tea so I won't rate it down for that either. I just never realized Starbucks & Soylent add so much extra sweetener to counter that bitterness. So for this I mixed 2 heaping teaspoons of Matcha to my Original Flavor Soylent drink. It turned REALLY GREEN. I definitely added too much matcha powder. YIKES! Next time I'll use less, not so much on the heaping. For this strong mix I went proceeded to shake it up to mix it real good & try it out. So bitter! Strong unsweet tea. So I added a pack of artificial sweetener. Still too bitter. Two packs of sweetener? That was good. Not overly sweet like Starbucks Matcha Latte. Good caffeine boost as well. How much caffeine? Reading on that they Estimate 1/2 tsp = 3g matcha = 100mg of caffeine. So 1 tsp = 6g matcha = 200mg of caffeine. So my heaping 2 tsp was maybe 3 tsp so 18g of Matcha that would be around 600mg of caffeine in one serving. Yikes. Be careful. That was too strong. UPDATE: After making many many drinks, I always add in 1tsp of matcha & 1tsp of sweetener to flavor my drink & it is just right. Overall I am VERY Satisfied with this purchase & will consider buying more in the future to flavor my Soylent. I got many many many servings out of this package. Thanks.

It’s pretty good but extremely bitter. It’s like the equivalent of black coffee in the matcha world, suuupperrr bitter and not sweet at all, but you get sooooo much for the price

Good, drinkable matcha with decent strength, aroma, color, and taste.
