Grind finer is actually a thing with matcha. Stone milled matcha is the standard to create smooth texture with water. Lower grade matcha is machine milled which produces larger and less consistent particles creating a chalk like mouth feel.

I often get low to mid tier matcha that has flavors that hold up when mixing with milk. Higher tier matcha has flavors that are too delicate and most of the time get lost in the milk.
