matcha queen
thank you so much. As a new matcha drinker this was very helpful. This was the best video I have seen comparing brands. Keep up the good work.
Always love and appreciate your matcha videos! I view the "not the worst, not the best" category as something that you would't mind drinking if you ordered a matcha latte at a cafe made with those brands, and there weren't other options. But wouldn't go out of your way to order the matcha from the brand otherwise : )
Totally!!! This is exactly how I feel :)
i love this and the format of this video! this really helps :)
Thank you so much for making these matcha videos! They are so fun and helpful. It would be cool to see you try Koto Tea. I’ve had both their Imperial and Ceremonial Grade matcha and enjoyed both. 💕🍵💕
Wow this the exact video I was hoping to see!
I always enjoy your matcha content, please keep it up and i genuinely appreciate you! I actually went to Matchaful Cafe in Soho the other week and was so disappointed with their matcha latte. The matcha latte with oat milk was extremely plain I could barely taste the matcha flavor at all :(
Loved this so much! I just discovered your channel and love it! I totally agree with jade leaf. Might be the only option for some people because it's so easy to find but I definitely wouldn't recommend. I actually like junbi - so I need to try some of these brands that are higher on the list lol. My go to ones are junbi and matcha bar so this was definitely really interesting
Thanks so much for this video! Next review could you add Laka, Numi and Mizuba?
I am looking forward trying some new good Matcha. But as Matcha is something special for me I definitly will go for the highest. I truly what to enjoy it as tea with my ritauals etc.
And some of these I already had in mind. Thanks for making the other Matcha videos so that I have already a "taste" of how they will taste.
Love the video even though we don't have most of these brands in Germany, haha. i will definitely also watch your taste test vids! :D 🍵
Thank you so much for this I loveeee your content
Would love a re-review of jade leaf with their tins/bags! because the kind you get directly from them seems to be totally different than the single serving grocery store kind
This is very helpful thank you. 💜
thank you so much for sharing your real exexperiences ❤❤
Love this video!! Sooo helpful.
Thanks for sharing this with us. I ordered matcha from Ippodo Tea because of your TikTok and it’s coming tomorrow. Exciting!
Let me know how it goes!!!
How was it?
this was an awesome video! I am new to matcha so this was super comprehensive and helpful. I tried nekohama for the first time today, it was really good but the price killed me inside a little bit 💀
Hello! Thanks for these videos! I’ve recently gotten into matcha and I’ve learned a lot, specially from your videos! I found out there’s a local matcha store where I live and they sell Marukyu Koyamaen matcha powder from Uji, Kyoto Japan. I haven’t seen anyone review it, but based on my knowledge it is very high grade matcha, I recommend! I’d really love it if you review it, I’d like your thoughts on it!
Informative video! Have you tried Tezumi? I mostly drink their matcha and think it’s great quality for the price. Would love to see your thoughts on them
Loved this. Have you tried Bloom?
Made the mistake of buying the Costco matcha once and NEVER AGAIN. I totally agree that it should be "avoided at all costs". Meanwhile, LOVED Ippodo Tea (which I think I tried per your recommnedation from another video) and my tastebuds can't go back after tasting something that's just GOOD w/o any frills. I'm back again to try another brand from the list! :D
I love your matcha videos so so so much. If you wanted to, I would loveee to watch a history of matcha video. Sending lots of love your way xxxx
Ohhh so interesting, thanks for that idea!
Appreciate your reviews, thanks! I bought the Ippodo Horai and love it. What do you/matcha fans recommend (budget-friendly) for iced lattes using coconut milk? I find that the Horai is overpowered by the coconut milk flavor so I only have it hot or iced with water. Thanks.
Can't wait to try more matcha ❤
What brush thing do you use for matcha? I’ve never had matcha but really want to try it 💚
I would love if you reviewed the Habit matcha! Such a down to earth couple owns it that I would love to support but I’m new to matcha so I’m not sure of the quality.
Hi. Love this video. Side note- what do you get done with your nails?
thank you for the video, it gives matcha noobs like me a starting point to continue to love matcha. Also, can you check out mizuba's matchas?
There’s a “wonder matcha” by Pow with functional mushrooms that I literally can’t find any reviews of. From their website they seem like a possibly high quality and good sourcing but it would be so nice to hear somebody’s honest opinion.
Can you review the different types of matcha from H-mart plsss
Can you also test the Nioteas matcha? They have a sampler kit and some other matcha options
Would love to see you test Habit’s Matcha (RUclips couple Eamon and Bec’s brand).
which one do you use for your latte?
The matcha reserve is good for flavoured matcha if you want something different- the mango flavour is very good.
So interesting ❤
Can you also review the reserve matcha please?
Remy, have you tried either of these brands: Sei Mee Tea, and Matcha Love? What are your thoughts on them?
I had a really bad experience with Matchaful Hikari though. I brought it home to Manila and when I opened it, it was dull green and was gritty!
I've tried Jade Leaf and Junbi (in cafe only), and Jade Leaf made me so sad bc it's not good at all :( it's definitely not the worst and avoid at all cost, but it's just not enjoyable imo and I'm just trying to get through the bag now, so I'm glad it wasn't one I bought for myself. from what I recall of Junbi (they're not local to me, I've only had them when traveling), I remember it being just okay but definitely not as bitter and earthy (but in a... dirt flavor way) as Jade Leaf. I would bump Junbi up to not the worst, not the best from that + how you talked about it in the video, despite putting it in don't recommend! I think we may have similar tastes since I'm sensitive to bitterness, so I'm excited to try some higher ranked brands like Ito En as a budget staple and maybe Ippodo and up when I get through my tea cabinet and can have a bigger matcha budget haha. love all these matcha reviews, you're doing god's work!!
Have you ever try the Teami blean matcha? the Mango one is my favorite. i think they are pricy but the flavor is no bad!
Love this…can you do a video that ranks Matcha Love. ( found at Wegmans in the north east.)
Matcha love is owned by the same brand ito en, I think it would likely be in my mid tier area!
Can you please review Hugo Tea Matcha :)
can you try marukyu koyamaen brand? they have classic, high, premium and imperial grade and it's so good
I was pouring myself my first cup of jade leaf when you got to it
Same here. I'm such a rookie!
Which matcha from ippodo would you recommend?
thats crazy, ive actually heard so many great things about encha matcha
It's definitely very popular and easily accessible which is a plus but not one that I love, that being said if you enjoy it, taste is always subjective!
Request for Mountain Rose Herbs matcha ❤
Could you recommend an organic matcha brand that also guarantees to be free from radiation? I’m looking for options that are well-regarded for their quality and safety, but I haven’t come across any rankings or reviews that specifically address these concerns.
Ceremonial grade is👌🏽💚💚
Which Ippodo matcha do you use for everyday?
Hi have you tried DoMatcha? Curious to see where it falls in your tier list!
Hi never heard of them before! Curious too
Please review matcha bloom purity powder and chafinity matcha gokoro
Great video! Can you rate the Tasti Matcha?
Can you pls do Aiya matcha bc Starbucks uses it and I rlly like it
Starbucks matcha is crap. They overload it with sugar and it doesnt even taste like high quality matcha. You can buy cheap matcha which had 1000 times the quality
There's one online that I would like to hear your opinion about. Its Wonder Matcha from POW. The founder creates it mixing matcha with adaptogens and anti-inflammatory ingredients 🙏
I don't really do mixed matcha powders bc they are usually made with lower quality matcha and it's not just about the matcha so unfair to compare to others
That's what I was curious about because I've been seeing a lot of these brands such as "RYZE", "TRUVANI", and "WonderMatcha" claim they use "high-quality Matcha with their blends for the added benefits but I questioned if it was worth keeping the subscription or go with one of those ones you've recommended in your videos. @@Veggiekins
Am I understanding that the matcha you use is Uji-Shimizu?
I'd respectfully argue that Kettl brand is "Almost too good" because the price/gram is really up there. In contrast, although Breakaway's Hyperpremium blends are indeed extra-pricey, they often have 20% off specials, plus you can get discount if you buy larger quantities, eg 100g vs 30g. From Kettl, you don't get that option at all (they only sell 20g). I'd also argue that Breakaway's more affordable Cold brew blends and even their Culinary Reserve blend can compete with other "Ceremonial" grades you've tried. Imho, Breakaway is worth looking at more closely. They have a large array of very high quality matcha all the way to their lower tier ones that even I can drink with just plain hot/ice cold water with minimal bitterness. Plus, their customer service and packaging is impeccable. Maybe I'm biased, but yeah, I love Breakaway, I don't want others to dismiss it because of their Hyperpremium price. Try their Cold Brew blend or their Culinary Reserve, I love both hot or ice cold (I drink it plain, never latte or sweetener added) and occasionally will splurge on the Hyperpremium if I catch a good sale.
I like how you mentioned a topic which interests me the most. What if affordable culinary grade matcha can be as good as some ceremonial grade?
@@proudbacteria1373 Most culinary grade matcha will be just that--culinary, because most likely it's unpalatable to drink it plain, especially the vast majority of those you see in the US stores. You could drink some culinary matcha as a latte (doctored up with a sweetener and/or milk of your choice). However, drinking this way requires using more matcha powder to compete with whatever flavorings you put in your drink. Also to note, the temperature of the water can also affect the taste of your matcha. Drinking matcha ice cold can mitigate the bitterness, which is why I like to drink Breakaway's Culinary Reserve on hot, summery days, but it's also nice served hot if you don't want to spend a ton of money. Just never use boiling hot water to make it, I typically use about 170F when making it hot.
Can you review ETA Nature matcha?
Have you ever reviewed Mizuba matcha??
Hi can you rank match a from the company Harney and Sons? :))
Jus spent 💰 💰💰💰 on 🍵
Have you tried davids tea matcha
I heard that it’s good for a a pre workout is this true?
I never knew the difference in taste/look when it came to organic matcha 😓 which is your favorite for organic? Ippodo or matcha kari?
I don't focus on organic matcha, I have a few videos up on IG about why that is! I prefer ippodo tho
I’m shocked at how bad cymbiotika matcha is! Oh well, at least we know the best ones to go with! I’m personally a pique fan but I’ve been wanting to try ippodo and nekohama. Also Maui matcha is on my radar
Cymbiotica makes supplements for health on rather expensive side. Many supplement companies like Nutricost, Naturebell, Deal Supplements etc sell culinary grade matcha from Japan. I'm wondering if they are good because such companies are capable to buy in bulk. If I'm a Japanese producer I would sell to those who buy in big quantities.
Quick question.... are you going to offer your matcha sweatshirts again?
I sent out a waitlist on my newsletter and always announce on IG and community tab here, check out my merch highlight on IG for updates!
How do you feel about Maeda-En?
Please review sayuri matcha.
Great video! Curious how you feel about Nio Teas, they’re my go-to. They specialize in small farm, organic matchas and have really informative, educational stuff on their site as well. Price is reasonable, quality ranges but is generally good, and they have good sampler packs available too. Definitely a fan of their Koiai in particular. I’d put them close to/on-par with Ippodo
What about hoshino-seichaen 🥺 it’s such an amazing brand. I bet it would be at the top in this list.
Matcha mommy i love you🎀☁️🍵please review ceremonymatcha they are based in Switzerland they have ceremonial quality matcha from Uji,Japan and the quality is unreal,,, literally unreal especially for the price for 30G
Thank you for this suggestion! Ive been wanting to review more EU brands
Have you tried the Vital Proteins matcha?
I haven't as I believe it contains collagen right? I don't consume collagen as I'm vegan, but also, I don't really mess with matcha supplement/mixed products. You can almost always assume it's a mid-quality matcha if it's mixed with something. Would be far to expensive to justify using quality matcha to mix it with something, if that makes sense! So I'd look at it like a supplement, not an actual matcha.
Shipping to Germany for most of the top ones costs 30+ $ T.T can anyone recommend good matcha that is available in the EU?
Amazon Germany should have a choice.
Have you tried the Organic Burst matcha? 🍵
at least in my region, the costco matcha is actually only $20 in warehouse!
This was a typo on the editors part I realize! $20 is correct :)
Sugimoto from hmart❤
Forgive me if you covered this in other videos, I am getting really fed up with all these manufactures adding sugar, Dextrose or something else. Under ingredients sometimes it's listed as the first ingredient so that means there is more filler then green tea. -_-; At lot of them keep prices the same w/ the hope no one will notice. That is why I have to do all this extra research. T___T
At least I found your channel. Silver-lining I guess. xD
It's a matter of finding cost value between very expensive cetemonial grade and affordable culinary grade matcha.
I was drinking Encha for a long time until I tried Ippodo Sayaka. And I was like, well Ippodo is pretty good, but not that much different. Then I tried going back to Encha. Ummm, no way. Then I tried Ummon and now I play the lottery hoping to win. 🤣 I'm on a 6g a day habit so it gets pretty pricey. I settled on Sayaka for my everyday and Ummon for a once daily treat.
Omg seriously once you upgrade it's sooo hard to go back
What does “white labeling” mean?
Google will prob do a better job explaining to you than I will :)
Sucks that everyday dose uses tenzo tea after watching this. Hopefully they switch to one of the better matchas. I'll probably try breakaway matcha next.
I just tried the two matchas I got from chamberlain coffee and it’s just no good 😅 the lavender matcha looked muddy when I mixed it and ended up tasting like lavender milk and the vanilla tasted almost like nothing at all. Good thing I still have some ippodo in the cabinet 😂
Have you tried matcha from The Reserve?
Its good:)
I'm sad. I really enjoy Jade Leaf. LOL
Then keep enjoying it! What's most important is that you enjoy what you're drinking, like I said in the video, taste is subjective but I also am ranking based on value for money, quality etc.
matcha kari is my FAVORITE
Some of your justifications for the rankings don’t make sense to me. I feel like you were kinda harsh with some and others you didn’t really feel were worth it you still recommended them?? But it’s your opinion and your video so I guess don’t mind me..
I honestly disagree with you for putting Jade Leaf Matcha 🍃 in the don't recommend category! In my opinion jade leaf should have been listed under the matcha mommy approved category. Because I swear by this brand and have been obsessed with jade leaf ever since 2021!!!
I’m not sure if you’ve tried us yet… 😳🍵💚
We come from China's matcha base and have been specializing in matcha production for 30 years. Our matcha has been certified by European and American standards, and we offer affordable prices and excellent quality. I think we can cooperate!
I thought you liked matchabar 😢
Yeah I do! That is not a bad category
Pique is a complete waste of plastic lol…
It's also just not that tasty for the price they're charging, crazy to me tbh
I would never ever buy any of these brands and would tell others the same. Only buy matcha from legitimate Japanese companies. Most of the good ones have been around longer than the US has existed as a country. Ippodo is easy to get and is one of the best. Even the cheapest ippodo stuff which is like $10 for 40 grams is better and more legit than the mystery matcha you buy from these shady companies. Don't trust any of these at all.
if you're getting something that's like half a lb of matcha for $20 or whatever, then stop right there. that stuff is not the same. use it for baking or whatever. Real legit matcha has zero bitterness and is very smooth and velvety with a refreshing savoriness. it should make you feel almost tingly when you drink it first thing in the morning.
Ippodo is on the list if you watched the video, Kettl, Rocky's and Nekohama all work with farmers in Japan whose farms I've been to and met with personally. Majority of shitty brands in the US are white labelled, blended leftover matcha but anything in the top 2 tiers in my video are brands I stand by, doing it right.
