I just received my first packet of Organic Matcha and I love it! I must say that at first I was a little alarmed when the packet arrived and I saw how small it was! Did I really just pay $25 for this!? But when you realize how very little you use at one time, I think you will see that it is a good value. Especially now that I can stop going to Whole Foods for my matcha latte fix. This morning I used it to make a matcha smoothie. Just about every matcha recipe says to dissolve the matcha powder in hot water before adding it to any drink, but when I opened the packet and saw how wonderfully fine this powder is, I decided to just throw it into my smoothie and not bother with the extra step. It worked out great! Nice flavor. Great color. Very pleased.”
“It has taken me forever to find a matcha powder that was both organic and contained no additive ingredients such as preservatives or cane sugar. This matcha has a wonderful, fresh taste and it has been a great addition to my smoothies, desserts, and matcha lattes in the morning (which have been a good replacement for coffee, without leaving me with a jittery feeling). It leaves me feeling energized without a crash, and I definitely feel that it helps my focus during the day. I love this product from US Whole Food Organic Matcha for its resealable package as well, and it’s easy to scoop from. Some of the other matcha varieties I found were really expensive for such a tiny amount, and I find that this product from US Whole Food Organic Matcha is a good value since the serving size is 1/2-1tsp daily where a little goes a long way. I can’t wait to try more recipes in the future with this matcha, thank you so much US Whole Food Organic Matcha!”
“Our family loves green tea and all the health benefits that come from it so I was happy to try this new product using a couple of recipes I found online…for green tea muffins and green tea almond russian tea cakes. Those particular recipes turned out to be a little bland and the russian tea cakes were extremely dry but both still tasted quite good (only a hint of green tea was noticeable). I then used it in my banana bread recipe which has much more flavor – and once again, the Matcha Green Tea Powder was barely noticeable and the recipe came out great as usual. If you like the health benefits of green tea – this is a wonderful additive for baking.”
“I have tried other organic green tea matcha’s before. This one compares to other brands I have tried and overall is a great product, but because I have used other products I am going to weigh the pros and cons. In our house we drink a lot of smoothies, especially as a breakfast on-the-go food for teenagers in our home. Most teenagers have trouble waking up in the morning and this extra caffiene kick that comes from green matcha helps awaken them in the early day. We’ve also added green tea matcha to different italian dishes- which sounds extremely unconditional, but gives sauces an earthy note that is really delicious. And, of course, sometimes we just drink plain old tea derived from matcha.”
“This matcha- compared to others, I would say is best for baking and cooking. If used in a tea it can be a bit overwhelming- unless you have other additives in the tea (like milk, honey, butter, etc). But it’s strong flavor is great for cooking with- and does accent our daily smoothies nicely. Compared to some other brands, you are getting a bit less matcha for your money. With that being said, this is high quality ORGANIC matcha, which in some people’s budgets may be worth the price. For me, I would definitely purchase this brand again- even if the size is a bit smaller than it’s competitors at the same price.”
“This matcha comes well-packaged in a plastic package (the one in the product desctiption). It’s very easy to open, but also retains freshness very efficiently. Green tea matcha is used by many smoothie companies as a ‘energy boost’ or ‘herbal green’ component to different smoothies. For people who want to save money, but still have a high-quality energy-boosting smoothie- you can make your own at home, and add this product. This product does add a mild herbal flavor to fruit smoothies. But it’s an accenting flavor that my family loves. Overall, I do like this product. I’m only rating it four stars, because there are other products out there, where you get more matcha for your buck. But it’s still a great quality product and I’d highly recommend it for people looking for organic, great tasting matcha.”
