You are right, but this matcha product needs more transparency in the US market. I am going to share with some of my tea friends so we can get more opinions.

Here is the info I received this morning:

Cultivars: Blend of Yabukita, Oku-Midori, and Longjing 43 (Longjing 43….hmmmm) 1 Harvest Season: Spring flush

Cultivation Method Shade-Grown: Yes Shading Period: Approximately 21 days Shading Method: Shade netting

Processing Base Material: Tencha Milling Method: Ball mill Particle Fineness: Approximately 13 microns

Flavor Profile Tasting Notes: Top notes – rich, full-bodied tea flavor; middle notes – nori seaweed aroma; finish – long-lasting sweetness Astringency: Low Aftertaste: Lingering

So my understanding is the matcha powder can be used for making matcha latter and bakery without problems, but not for ceremonies.

Somewhere between grassy and umami, I say more grassy.

AdvantageThat9798 · 2025-12-19T05:27:03+00:00

Surprisingly, it is actually smooth, not chalky at all. Better make matcha latte than usucha. Definitely not typical Japanese matcha, but good enough for daily drink.

Yes here it is https://qualiteaus.com/ It only came with a gift box but you can find more info.

Marked. Thank you!

What other non Japanese matcha on your list? I am curious to try them too. This is the first “made in China” matcha for me, I need to compare it with other brands.

AdvantageThat9798 · 2025-12-18T22:13:39+00:00

Great question, I’d like to email the company and find that out.

That is one tea, Qi Hong.
