Smooth tasting with lots of health benefits.
This ceremonial grade matcha is wonderful. The ceremonial grind is just right for making my match tea, and for adding to my morning smoothie.
Great matcha. My wife and I have been using it for mixes in drinks and teas. A bit on the expensive side but worth the extra bucks. Very happy with the service from the Republic of tea.
I am happy I found this matcha. It is delicious and easy to make.
Dull green matcha not vibrant ceremonial matcha
Pleasant smooth tasting
This matcha tea is so smooth. Love it everyday with a little honey and vanilla almond milk.
This is not ceremonial quality matcha. The color and flavor profile are of low quality tea leaves. Do not buy.
I really enjoy this tea. Its a good value and tastes great. I like it either straight up or with a tad of organic honey. Great pick me up, and if you leave out the milk your body can absorb all the benefits!
Amazing matcha!
My daughter gave me a tin of the Organic Ceremonial Matcha Tea for my birthday and I really enjoyed it! I just ordered the refill.
I don’t know how people are rating this so highly. To me, this matcha has very little flavor and it is clearly a low quality option. If this is all your budget allows, it’s acceptable. If you can afford more, I highly recommend skipping.
I’ve really been enjoying this matcha! It’s smooth, fresh, and so easy to make. I look forward to having a cup every day now
I enjoy the Ceremonial Matcha every morning. It has replaced my desire for coffee. Love the mental focus and the energy this matcha seems to give me. I am a convert.
I am a matcha fanatic so this did not disappoint!
I was introduced to this matcha through work and it is my favorite thing to drink. I love making a matcha latte with vanilla cold foam. It blends super smoothly and has a perfect balance of herby flavor.
Have been drinking this Matcha for years! Incredible taste - always delicious!
The taste of the Matcha is great. I was surprised at how little matcha came in the tin. On the tin, it states 1.5 oz. The package of matcha that was inside the tin, however, filled up only the bottom 1/5th of the tin container.
Mild taste! Have tried different brands and this is by far the best!
this is most excellent
This matcha is so amazing that I've purchased EIGHT tins since I go through it so fast! It is not bitter at all! I make a matcha lavender drink by mixing 2 tsp. Matcha powder, 1 tblsp. Hot water and 1 1/2 tblsp. Cane sugar simple syrup in a tall glass. I then add 1 cup barista oat milk and about 1/2 cup of ice. Then in a 2 cup measuring cup I put 3 tblsp. Heavy cream, 2 tblsp. 2% milk, 1 tblsp. Torani lavender syrup and 1 drop of purple food coloring. Whip it for about15 seconds with a hand frother then pour over the matcha tea in the glass. Fair warning... This is really addictive!
This is the most delicious matcha I have ever tasted! I always have to keep it stocked at home now.
I have tried several different Matcha teas and this is very very good. There is no bitterness, so I do not have to use any sweetener. Also no seaweed taste or smell. I will be reordering this again!
Purchased this from Lazy Acres, tasted fine, but did not feel even the slightest caffeine kick. I’ve had many other Matchas and never felt that. This Matcha is sadly my least favorite.
Smooth and mellow, with a pleasant herbal flavor that’s close to mint.
Not the ceremonial grade that I had in mind unfortunately. It's alright for lattes but you have to use 4+ grams to have an average-sized glass of iced matcha, in order to somewhat taste it. Hoping I can find a better product within Republic of Tea since I adore all of their black and herbal teas.
I've been enjoying this organic ceremonial matcha for a couple years now. I like the taste and the energy it brings to me.
Quality matcha powder for the price!
I love this company and this Matcha. Been buying here for over 10 years never disappointed.
I find this pleasantly astringent when prepared properly but it might not be to everyone's taste.
I heard about the fuzz of matcha and did some research and i love what i found. So i went to coborns organic tea section ans i found this tea. I tried it with almond milk with banana and a teaspoon of matcha but first i whiskedit in a small amount of hot water so i can melt it well and its green color and poured it with my milk. So loved it! Now i'm looking for more. Not all store carry it. Wish it has more content in the pouch so it can help save more money.
First I would like to say this tea is delicious, sweet. It frosts up perfect. If you’re looking for a healthy tea high in antioxidants this tea is for you. It tastes great and will yield you benefits of green tea.
Bought this on a whim because it was at the market and I needed matcha. The leaves are lower quality and the matcha is a brownish green. It should be more brightly green. I say that as a person who already buys cheaper matcha. It doesnt taste like any of the other matcha brands I’ve tried, and not in a good way.

I stopped drinking coffee and most caffeinated beverages but when I have a craving, this matcha powder makes the best lattes. I have it with steamed cashew milk and a little bit of honey and it is perfect every time! I also like that there is the option to buy refills
Sometimes I try to reduce my coffee intake and nothing has ever worked as well as this matcha. Something about the rich frothy brew just does it.
All I can say is that it's not green, more like a murky brownish green color� why is that? Matcha is supposed to be a bright green color. I'm not even going to get into the flavor, all I can say is that if you want flavorful matcha with a nice green color� this isn't it� they must be using very old or low quality tea. Find something else because this is like making tea with grass� ugh.
Easily whisks no clumps and perfect for matcha lattes!
Love it
We drink this tea every morning to start our day and receive all of the benefits of matcha tea.
I bought the canister size from Sprouts. I opened it and it's a bag inside. What was the point of the canister! I knew it would be hard to use with a pouch so I wanted to use the can and this pouch was MESSY. The seal wasnt intact so when I closed it, it exploded everywhere. The matcha itself is the worst I've ever had. The powder color is dark but when you make it, it's DARK. Like brown green. It should be a bright green. I figured it's just low grade but it tastes very bitter and hardly has matcha flavor. It cannot be drank as a latte cuz all you'll taste is milk and if you add too much powder it's just super bitter. I'll drink this with sweeter iced with no milk. It's probably the best way. (I only tried this brand because I've had their tea leaves before and it wasn't bad. My normal matcha shops were out of stock but now I'm not sure of this brand anymore).
My daughter loves preparing matcha and a tea we both enjoy. This was a perfect "thinking of you" gift to send while she is away at school.
This matcha is great for the price. I like to add steamed cashew or oat milk for a tasty matcha latte!
Smooth, bright taste. Great quality matcha. I wish there was a bit more, but for the purity I understand the price.
I love the ritual of whisking a giant cup of this matcha every morning! It's earthy and soothing and I can't imagine starting my day without it!
Organic Full-Leaf Match I've been sampling various grades & brands of Matcha for about 3-4 years. So far I've found that prices are a bit high and flavors, colors, and textures have been inconsistent. I had given up on Matcha for about a year until a friend made me an iced vanilla Matcha latte, using Organic Full-Leaf Matcha from TROT. We have a WINNER! Good silky texture and depth of color. Good flavor that is tasty for multiple uses. I love it in custard, tea, smoothies, salad dressing, etc. AND, the price is much more affordable than most!
I have been ordering this tea for a while now, so I can attest to its 5-star quality and robust taste! I actually mix in one tablespoon of organic, cold-pressed, unrefined, virgin coconut oil. Mmmmmmm! I absolutely LOVE your full-leaf matcha organic green tea.
This tea is soooo tasty and now I can mimic my favorite Starbucks drink at home!
We start our day every morning with this excellent matcha tea. It is a staple in our house.
Fantastic Taste!
I picked this up because I was fatally curious. After trying it, I would say this is culinary level matcha, not ceremonial. Red flag #1: the color is off, it's browner than fresh matcha. Red flag #2: it's terribly bitter. Yes, matcha does have a hint of bitter, but this was just awful stringent bitter. I couldn't drink it on its own, and I drink black coffee and black tea with no cream or sugar. I can handle bitter. Red flag #3: Republic of Tea doesn't say on the packaging when the tea for their matcha was picked. When asked how soon to drink it, they responded with 2 years... I don't know about other kinds of tea, but matcha ought to be drunk within a year of its harvesting. I'm kinda worried how old this matcha is if they think matcha can be kept (after who knows how long on the store shelf) for two years. All that to say. If you just want a matcha tea flavor to your baked goods or your lattes, go for it. Just don't drink this stuff on its own. It's not a good experience.
I am a beginner to matcha and was sure I didn't like it after trying other brands. They were either too bitter or too grassy tasting. I tried this one and the matcha chai from this site. The chai is a little too crazy and not as delicious, but a fun idea. After trying other organic matcha (for a much higher price than this when you consider the bulk price), this is the one I always want to pull out. It is smoother, smells amazing, has a very fine powder that blends the best, and even a hint of sweetness. I have to finish the others I bought but I'll be buying this one in bulk in the future. Even my husband loves it!
I really like this matcha. For a while i was getting the double matcha tea bags but i like this one better. Only issue is i think the image is misleading, because if your not paying attention to the listing the image makes it look like you are getting a whole container full of matcha but really you are just getting about a quarter of the container filled. I get, matcha is expensive so the price is really good for what you get.
This is one of the only matches I have tried that isn't bitter and retains its vibrant green color! I highly recommend!
This is a good tasting, bright green organic matcha at a great price. I am enjoying its calm energy effects in the morning!
I had to buy a different matcha from a different brand to blend this into so that the overall matcha powder became drinkable. What this really is, I believe, is culinary grade matcha. I'm sure within the culinary grade, this is as fine as it gets, but regretfully I was looking for matcha to drink on a daily basis, and this is not that. The colour is very pale and dull The flavour is unbalanced It's not easy to whisk But by all means put this product into your matcha cookies. But taking into account the the price per ounce, I would say that you can purchase online far better quality for a lower per ounce price.
Ordered a Taster Tin to see how it compares to my current Matcha. I was good, and the price is tempting, but not enough to make me switch. To me, and I know this is very subjective, it has a mint note that makes it a little different from my preferred brand. Not a bad thing, just not for me. You should definitely give it a try if you're interested.
Green tea lattes are a favorite of mine however I also like baking with it. This one works well because it is unsweetened.
I was in Japan several years ago and attended a tea ceremony. I use a round handleless cup and whisk the tea in the way the hostess taught me. This little bit of ceremony is a nice introduction to the morning when I usually drink this tea. I drink it with and without a little hemp milk added.
I have been testing various brands of Matcha these last couple of months to find one that hits the sweet spot for taste, quality, ease of use, and most importantly doesn't break the bank! This one seems pretty darn close to that sweet spot and makes a great cup of matcha! Also helps that I already order so much other tea from TROT!
This organic matcha tea powder is hands down my favorite matcha. I drink this hot and as iced tea. It is delicious with spearmint tea added to it for a refreshing summer iced tea. My 12 year old loves it most with some lemonade to make iced matcha lemonade.(Like Starbucks) We can't go without it as this is our #1 favorite tea! We drink it almost daily! Highly recommend!
This is the best tasting and smoothest matcha I have found. The powder comes well sifted and not clumpy which helps blend well. The first thing I reach for as I stumble into my kitchen half awake. Highly recommend. Also love how Republic of Tea is Certified Gluten free, a very important factor for those of us with Celiac disease and need to be confident in what we consume.
I enjoy drinking to my health! It's so easy to make, as my tools are always at the ready. That's the good thing. Alas, it's all gone before I know it! That's the only unfortunate thing I can find. Enjoy a cup with me, next time. Till then.....bye for now.
Great flavor. This is a nice change.
Matcha is very bitter and astringent, indicative of old/lower grade matcha. Prepared two bowls as usucha and threw the rest out. If you are making a latte or mixing then it might be okay, but for this price one should expect a higher grade ceremonial matcha. This is very expensive for the quality.
I love this. I usually add a dash of it to my protein shake in the morning after I work out. It tastes fantastic and gives me an extra pep. It's also delicious mixed into warmed almond milk. I drink this basically every day and I love it!
Deliciously flavored as I make a iced tea,its delightful.Over ice what a nice treat.Refreshing.
I use this for a vegan breakfast recipe and it tastes great!
It's the best matcha tea! Rich flavor, tastes so natural, I don't even add anything. I think it diminishes cravings for sugar. I love it, and drink it once or twice a day.
Great flavor and green color.
I can't start my morning without this matcha. I find the taste of green tea slightly bitter, so I mix a teaspoon of this excellent matcha with warmed oat milk, which is naturally sweet (no added sugar). Now THAT'S a matcha latte. Really starts my day off on a lovely note--delicious, and healthy. Thank you, Republic of Tea!
I've been drinking this tea for years. Brings me back to my days in Japan. Its immunity properties are off the charts and it's very robust and satisfying.
Really like the matcha green tea. I have a cup every morning.
I've tried several Matcha teas and this one is my favorite. While Matcha, I believe, is an acquired taste and takes some time getting used to, this one is very smooth, sweet, and not as "grassy" tasting as other tencha leaf Matchas I've tried. Delicious!
Wow is this smooth! Each morning i take a scant 1/4-1/2 tsp and add to it 4 ounces of water. Then using an electric frother, I make almond milk foam and voila! Matcha Latte! Yum!
For the price its alright not gonna wow or impress anyone not super smooth creamy and sweet tasting even got,a,bit of an offputting smell. But its pure vibrant and I'm sure packed with a lot of health benefits not ceremonial like I expected but it was too good to be true also so for the price of say its ok because the best stuff is very expensive.
Soon it was apparent that it has many benefits from my research. It tastes wonderful. Fresh light earthy flavor. You get the full benefits from the powder. I've been buying from republic of tea for at least 10 years now. I've tried many. You can even use this powder to enhance your particular tastes with other types. Drop a bag in boiling water and add some of this matcha powder to it also. Enjoy! ??
Loved what I bought. Can't review all because some sent to daughter in Hawaii.
You never disappoint. You have the best tea and the best customer service. Thank you. I also appreciate your Loyal Citizens awards program. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
I love it I will continue buy it for ever
