Excellent Organic Green Tea
The previous reviewer did not read the description, nor pay attention to the picture on the tin.

The tin clearly shows both green tea leaves, and matcha powder. The product description also clearly states that this product is “organic green tea powder known as matcha with fine, organic green leaf tea”. In other words, the tea bag contains green tea leaves, along with a bit of matcha powder.

It is an excellent tea if you are the casual tea drinker, or someone looking for a healthy, tasty and organic green tea (with a bit of added benefit of the matcha powder). If you are a true matcha drinker, then this is not the product for you.

I find this to be an excellent organic green tea.

Great tea, horrible price!
Have loved this tea for some time. What surprises me, unpleasantly, is the price through Amazon. I can get this for $10 directly from Republic of Tea, and for $9 through other sites. To pay more than list price through Amazon is unacceptable.

Passable as green tea, but “matcha” is misleading
When I saw this at the store, I thought, “Wow! How did they capture the flavor of matcha in a tea bag?” The short answer is: they didn’t.

This is an acceptable (not great) plain green tea. The flavor is a bit stale, but I recognize that we’re talking about pre-bagged leaves. It’s certainly nothing to write home about. It also brews up weak for a green tea (and I’m familiar with how green tea should brew – I’m not comparing it to a black tea).

My major issue with this tea is the same issue that the first reviewer had. It is misleading to label this as “matcha tea powder with green tea leaves”, because that statement implies that it will taste like matcha mixed with green tea. The actual tea does not deliver on this promise. There is no matcha flavor whatsoever to this tea when brewed. It tastes like a straight green tea (and as I mentioned previously, not even a very good green tea). Where’s the matcha???

The reality is that it was silly of me to get…
