Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I love drinking Matcha green tea because it has high amount of antioxidants. It also taste good specially the good quality one. I don't consider myself an expert in matcha green tea but I tried a lot of brands so far. You need to know its not always easy to find the best Matcha and comparing brands side by side will give you better idea. some tips you need to know 1- the origin, grades and which part of plants matcha comes from, color, taste and finally how to prepare each grade matcha. There Isn’t any formal or universal grading system for matcha but will list the most common two grades I found. - Ceremonial grade: Made from shade-grown green tea leaves harvested and then stone-ground to a very fine powder. Good for drinking straight and taste good. - Ingredient/ culinary/ kitchen grade matcha which is best when used in recipes for matcha lattes, smoothies, shakes, ice cream, baking, etc. the taste is more strong and maybe bitter to maintain its aroma and flavor when mixed with other ingredients. You can also consume as a brewed drink with more bitterness than the ceremonial grade matcha if you don't mind that. now for this brand "New! Authentic Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder By Jade Leaf Organics" . Here what I found: - The color of this Matcha green tea is brighter green compared to other culinary grades I have tried. - The taste is less bitter compare to others. I tried drinking straight and the taste actually not bad! although I prefer the Ceremonial grade for cup of matcha. - Powder: fine green powder. - I tried it for lattes, smoothies, shakes, ice cream and baking and the results are great this one stays on top of my culinary grade brands and really recommend it as kitchen grade matcha I received this product at a discount for my honest and unbiased review. If you have any question please leave it in comment section and I will try my best to answer it. Thanks
