Lost in Translation: Truth
This product is called “Hunmatsu-RyokuCha,” in Japanese, and not the same as “Maccha” or “Matcha.”
The translation for Hunmatsu Ryokucha and Maccha are actually the same, green tea powder.
However, the ingredient for Maccha is a special kind of tea called “Tencha,” in Japanese, and has unique “Umami.”
“Tencha” is grown in the shade in order to prevent the final product from developing certain astringent bitterness, called “Shibumi,” in Japanese. There are many kinds of bitterness. i.e. For Maccha, it is not necessary true that bitterness is bad. The 1st grade maccha is the most expensive and the least bitter; so it is good for drinking without adding sugar, at tea ceremony. The 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade maccha is sufficient for cooking/baking/dessert-making/Maccha-Latte-Drink-Making.

The process of producing REAL Maccha is much more complicated and painstaking than Hunmatsu-Ryokucha.
Hunmatsu-Ryokucha is ground regular Sencha Green Tea that are casually…

Excellent; A great alternative compared to Starbucks Green tea lattes
I purchased the matcha powder in hopes to replicate the green tea lattes at starbucks. Starbucks matcha powder contains more sugar than matcha, so i thought Id try creating my own. This product is amazing and tastes exactly like the green tea lattes. I chose not to add a syrup, but it would work very nicely. To have a similar green tea latte like starbucks i use this recipe:

1 cup of hot milk separated (I use skim)
1 teaspoon of matcha powder
3 tablespoons of hot water.
Sugar/Splenda (optional)
Choice of Flavored Syrup (Optional)

First disolve and mix the hot water with the matcha powder. Get all the clumps out before continuing. Then add about 3/4 cup of the milk to the matcha water mixture and mix to completely blend. Using a frother, froth the remaining milk until it resembles a foam. (I also purchased a small travel frother from Amazon) Add it to the top of the latte.

Add sugar/spenda if desired.
Add syrup if desired.
