BJDesign Matcha Latte Powder “HAJIME” Sweetened Matcha Green Tea Powder - Authentic Japanese Origin - Non MSG, Non GMO, Vegan, Gluten Free (5.3 Ounce)

I recently returned from a trip to Japan. I mention this because this is where I drank Matcha tea for the first time. The fact that it comes in green powder form is amazing enough but after drinking a few over there, I will never go back to regular tea again. Since returning home I have located a distributor that gets it direct from Kyoto (where the tea is grown) Japan. I add honey and maple syrup to the hot tea and it is truly outstanding. Once you try it you will make it your favorite ❤️ GUARANTEED !!

After seeing the price at the store, I went to Amazon. After reading reviews, I decided to give this brand a go. I love this stuff. I normally take a cup, put a little milk in, then add 4 tablespoons of the matcha, a pinch of coconut sugar, and some lavender drops. Then I froth it up. It tastes delicious! The amount you get for the price is really good too. I was expecting a much smaller bag.

Great stuff

Normally a regular at Starbucks, I decided to opt for some matcha latte at homeThe matcha powder itself has a fine texture to itThe instructions I followed are as follows:1) 2 tbsp matcha latte powder2) Fill in half cup of cold water3) Fill in half cup of soy milk4) Microwave for 45 seconds5) Stir until there are no lumps

If you’re a ⭐️Bucks girl and you want the most westernized, inauthentic version of matcha possible, get this. (The product is in fact from Japan, but it’s clearly made to appeal to a certain audience) If you look at the ingredients (which I failed to do, as I didn’t conflate “sweetened” with sugar with a bag of matcha colored sugar), it has a higher sugar content than matcha powder itself, which is why they can sell so much for so cheap relatively. Don’t be fooled. This makes it impossible to achieve a microfoam with it unless you use an absurd amount compared to your water and use an electronic tool to aid you and not a traditional chasen. You will run through it quickly because of the sheer amount you have to use for it to not be watery.The color isn’t bad at all for the price, however the match flavor itself is very faint. It has a slight grassiness but no umami or richness, nothing can be tasted over the sheer amount of sugar.The flavor is pleasant if you aren’t expecting proper matcha. If you just want a *slightly* matcha-like aftertaste to your green milk after you make a “latte”, then go ahead.Otherwise, just pay the extra bit for a better quality from another brand and add your own sweetness to taste.

I love ❤️ it

Love this matcha, so good and sweet

Love this! Will be repurchasing in future
