Kyoto Dew Matcha – 1 oz / 30g – USDA & JAS Organic Premium Ceremonial Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder – Stone-Ground First Harvest – Zero SugarUSDA Organic

After trying several matcha powders, this Kyoto Dew Matcha stands out for its vibrant color and rich, smooth taste without any bitterness. The ceremonial grade quality is evident—perfect for traditional whisking or adding to lattes and smoothies. Its organic certification and zero fillers ensure a pure experience, which is rare at this price point. The tin packaging keeps the powder fresh and easy to store, which is a nice touch for daily use.On the downside, the 30g size is a bit small if you drink matcha daily or in larger quantities. Also, the fine powder can be a little tricky to measure without a proper scoop. Still, for anyone seeking authentic, high-quality matcha without additives, this is a reliable choice that delivers great flavor and health benefits.

This is a quality ceremonial grade matcha. It has a nice earthy flavor that doesn't overpower. It's USDA organic and high in antioxidants. As you can see in the picture it's a nice green color (this one has been opened for a few weeks so it's oxidized a little bit but it was greener. I love that they provide some directions on the side of the can as well so that you don't burn the matcha. Overall, I highly recommend this.TLDR Pros:- USDA organic- quality ceremonial matcha- high antioxidants- directions for use conveniently locatedTLDR Cons:- would be useful to have caffeine content (not really a con; more of a suggestion)

A bit on the expensive side, but very good. Color is rich and taste is amazing. morning matcha is the best to start your day and fantastic for your health.

Great matcha for beginners! I'm an everyday matcha drinker and I buy a lot of the matcha on Amazon, matcha can run pretty pricey so I'm always on the lookout for cheaper matcha without having to sacrifice flavor, color and smoothness. Im quite pleased with the texture of this matcha, it's very smooth and the taste is tame and umami. The color is nice, not the greatest but quality is good for the price in my opinion. Overall I'd recommend this matcha to a beginner as its very easy to work with as well as having a pleasant taste that's not too strong flavor wise.

I’ve been recently trying different Matcha powders to see which one is right for me cost and quality wise, so I decided to do a little taste test, and this is my opinion on the 8 that I tested. Note that all are Ceremonial Grade except for Jade Leaf (Culinary Grade) which I’ve been using for cooking and smoothies but included it for comparing color. Cost:Kyoto Dew: $.83/gramIppodo: $1.37/gram (BEST)Matchabar: $.99/gramPure Chimp: $.29/gram (WORST)Kenko: $.33/gramEncha: $.65/gramAkira: $.83/gramJade Leaf (Culinary Grade): $.19/gramTop 4:1) Ippodo: Hands down the best Matcha I’ve ever tasted, but very pricey to use daily. Sweet, earthy, Intense and complex with an unmatched bright rich green color. This is a special occasion or limited use Matcha for me because of the price.2a) Akira: The taste is remarkably close to Ippodo but not as complex and has a slight bitterness at the beginning. Sweet, earthy, floral, fresh and complex with a bright rich green color.2b) Kyoto Dew: A particularly good Matcha that gives a strong herbal and sweet flavor with a subtle bitterness. Sweet, herbal, smooth and slightly complex with an incredible dark (Chlorophyll Dense) rich green color which I love.3) Encha: A particularly good Matcha but lacks the high complexity of Ippodo and Akira. Mild bittersweet, earthy, nutty, smooth and slightly complex with a bright rich green color.Bottom 3: I didn’t include (Jade Leaf) because it’s Culinary Grade.7) Pure Chimp: The worst Ceremonial Grade Matcha I’ve tasted. If this is in fact a true Ceremonial Grade Matcha, then it’s not a premium grade. The color, texture, aroma and flavor are on par with Culinary/ Cooking Grade with maybe a slight edge to Pure Chimp in color (see pic) and taste. The price also reflects this. It was by far the cheapest Ceremonial Grade I tested ($.29/gram) and it showed. I see no reason for someone to purchase this product.6) Matchbar: A decent Matcha, but for the price there are plenty of better options out there (Akira, Encha, Kyoto, Kenko) are all cheaper and better.5) Kenko: A decent Matcha, but it was very lite with some bitterness that lingered too long. Slightly sweet, grassy, mild bitterness and soft flavor with rich green color. This would be a good start for someone that has never tried Matcha or for someone looking for a softer flavor.

good quality and color always turned out amazing. not bitter but nice and sweet without flavoring.

This is one of three brands of matcha powder I have tried recently. All about the same price and all "ceremonial grade". The other two had a much deeper richer flavor and color. I typically use a heaping teaspoon for my matcha lemonade and end up with a dark green flavorful cup of tea. This one I used almost 2 teaspoons and it still seemed weak and lacked body. Unfortunately, I can't recommend this one unless you are looking for a bright green, lightly flavored drink.

Matcha has a vibrant green color, silky-smooth texture, not bitter at all. I drink at least 3 cups a day. It may be expensive but it's worth every penny. I usually boil my water until it reaches 175F and then whisk it.
