I found this bitter. Perhaps the water was too hot? I loved that the directions about about amounts of water and tea were very clear.

 		This was my first time trying matcha. Like the description says it has a very vegital taste. Very green. I found a couple different uses for it too besides drinking it. Ive also mixed it with honey and tumeric for my honey mask and also mix it into my vanilla ice cream (which is absolutely devine).

 		This tea is not only a very high, excellent and purely refined of such highest quality, that its the consistency of real jewel grade of sand. This tea very closely resembles the tea I used to buy all over Korea and Japan. I must say that flavor is very clean, clear, and absolutely crisp. You must try. I dare you to enjoy it!

Delicious on its own, very versatile tea July 29, 2011

 		Fresh and grassy, a wonderfully strong cup pf green tea without the bitterness. I have also used this in steamed soy milk to make hot lattes (so much better than Starbuck's syrupy sweet version). Matcha is expensive everywhere, this was a pretty reasonable price for a high quality product.
