I found this matcha very mellow and light, perfect in a latte
It was more umami than I expected it to be. Very short shelf life when I received it, I wish an approximate expiration date would be listed.
its the perfect matcha for a strawberry matcha latte!! the scent is very light and fruity, with some hints of strawberry; slightly earthy but not bitter
Great buy. Bought it without knowing the taste, but liked it very much. Shipping was good with no issues
