    About matcha (抹茶)

    Matcha is made from finely ground shade-grown tea leaves called "tencha." It contains about three times the antioxidants of regular green tea and is an excellent source for powerful catechins such as epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) that are believed to have cleansing, anti-viral effects

    About premium matcha

    Premium matcha falls right in between ceremonial matcha—the highest grade, typically with a delicate flavor, meant to be consumed neat—and culinary matcha—which due to its intense flavor is best enjoyed when added to culinary creations.

    Note: In Japan, matcha is simply referred to as "matcha." The aforementioned grades are mainly used outside of Japan.

    Good for baking, not for lattes!

    This is a high quality matcha powder for baking but not for powders. If you are an experienced matcha drinker you will notice the quality difference right away. It is not bad but not nearly at good as their ceremonial grade matcha. I wanted to see if it would be worth it for lattes at least with how much more you get but unfortunately the matcha did not froth well, was bitter and sunk to the bottom. That being said it’s a fair price for baking and their ceremonial is wonderful!

    Terrible

    I was so hyped up when Paru was all over tik tok however it was so bad when I came to try it. I bought the premium- grade matcha to take home. I’ve tried it three times already but I think this matcha powder is very light and not as strong enough to either drink or bake. I highly not recommend anything here
