• FIRST RATE QUALITY ✪ This 1st flush (1st harvest) Matcha is rich vibrant green in color, sweet in aroma with smooth earthy flavors. Our production processes are second to none. Carefully selected and grown in shaded facilities. Once the BEST tea leaves have been selected, they are gently blown and cooled. The selected leaves are then grinded by a Mikage Stone Mill to produce delicate delicious final powder. Our tea plantations are designed to maximize the oxygen flow to the roots and to provide shaded sunlight, allowing tea leaves to naturally expand to collect more sunlight.
• ENHANCED PACKAGING ✪ Our packaging is formulated to maintain optimal freshness and to provide effortless handling. The Matcha is placed in a food grade tin and sealed with a pull top and lid. Once the pull top is removed, the Matcha should be stored in the fridge with the lid on to maintain freshness. Our packaging does not store the Matcha in a separate bag since the tin is food grade and it is sealed with a pull top. By having the Matcha directly in the tin, it is easier to scoop out and eliminates the nuisance of the bag.

Important Information

Indications
If pull top seal is broken, contact manufacturer for immediate return.

Review: I got this a bit ago for free from tomoson.com to review and decided to make bubble tea with it, I was a bit shocked at the size of it, I didn't realize 30g was that small but i figured lets give it a try, So i pulled the pull top and of course the powder went on my hand, maybe a change in top like a plastic pull seal would be better for this product, however after reading the directions i realized a few things not everyone has a whisk or a bamboo spoon so it was time to improvise, i used a plastic throw away spoon to take it out of the can it came in which was small, then to whisk it i used a plastic fork, i heated my fork in some hot water and the regular cereal bowl i was using like it said and grabbed a cup of hot water and went to work, adding the powder in first then slowly adding in the hot water so it wouldn't clump, kind of like i do with my gravy then i realized i could have used a container with a lid and just shook it, maybe next time, i do have to say the bubble tea came out amazing, it tasted fresh and light and like a brand new morning, it was a pleasant change from the ones that are extremely heavy in taste, I have had a few that were so heavy they tasted almost like dirt to me, this wasn't the case with this, it was thick but not overly thick or over powering, i could judge for myself how strong i wanted it, not how strong someone else says i should have it, with bubble tea i added a bit of sweeter (sugar water mix) and it was perfect with my boboa. highly recommended for those who have to hide there green tea but want it's added benefits.
