Flavor and Taste

Pros:

  • "This tea seems very authentically Japanese and has a rich, yummy flavor."
  • "Delicious. Fresh & tangy fruit."
  • "The flavor is just like what I had in Thailand."
  • "It tastes great though of not like raspberries but a combination of leafy green flavor with a fruity edge."
  • "It has a very natural aroma and a deep taste."
  • "The flavor is wonderful and clean."
  • "This tea is deliciously tart, fresh, and pungent (in a good way)!"

Cons:

  • "The powder is a dull brownish green and the taste is rather bland."
  • "The tast is really awful and the quality of the matcha is very poor because the color is very dark not green."
  • "Where's the raspberry flavor? Instead it's a green or matcha tea flavor."
  • "This “matcha” powder barely tastes like matcha and there is a sweetness to it that is not natural to matcha tea."
  • "This tea has a weird taste compared to the other brands I tried."
  • "It has a tart taste and a lack of aroma."
  • "Then it tastes like… artichoke. It gets very bitter."

Quality and Consistency

Pros:

  • "High quality, scent is beautiful."
  • "The quality of the flowers is excellent."
  • "This Dandelion Powder is Organic and has a smooth powder consistency and dissolves easily."
  • "These are very good quality dried lavender flowers."
  • "Great product and lots of it. Packaging was good as well."
  • "Good quality matcha. I make my own iced bubble matcha tea at home with oat milk and it’s better than the store for 1/5 the price per cup."
  • "This is a great quality hibiscus tea."

Cons:

  • "This is a poor quality of matcha. Only for blending in smoothies or something, not worth the money."
  • "All the tea was heavily oxidized from oxygen exposure due to the air sealed in the bag with the matcha powder."
  • "I thought this was really good until I noticed tons of small orange beetles crawling in it."
  • "I am not sure if this is actual matcha or has fillers but it made me sick to my stomach after drinking."
  • "This isn't a matcha that can be drunk without ALOT of milk and sweetener."
  • "This is certainly not culinary grade Matcha Powder."
  • "Faded smell and no color. Disappointed."

Packaging and Presentation

Pros:

  • "I was pretty shocked at the size of bag, but it fits into a lazy Susan shelf."
  • "For 1.25 pounds, that is a lot of lavender flowers."
  • "The bag is enormous! The tea is very light; there are about 500 cups of tea, but the expiration date is 10/22."
  • "Wow, they were not kidding about 1.25 lbs of dried lavender flowers."
  • "The storage bag has an excellent zippered lock for freshness."
  • "The bag is also resealable to help preserve the scent and freshness."
  • "Huge package for the price and quality."
