Naoki Matcha (Fragrant Yame Blend, 30g) Authentic Japanese Matcha Green Tea Powder Ceremonial Grade from Yame, Fukuoka

The quality of this matcha is incredible specially for the price. Definitely fragrant, has a bright green colour and foams up beautifully. The taste is strong with a nice, bitter nuttiness to it. It paired really well with my usual oat milk and maple syrup. I have tried the Chiran Harvest from this brand which is also delicious and more nutty but this is definitely my new favourite as it has a stronger flavour and foams up better in my opinion. I will definitely be purchasing this again!

I am just starting out buying matcha to have a home and this was a great tester product to go with. I did some research before buying and this brand was one that came up. Other great things about the product: - good taste and texture, not too grassy - easily mixes into a drink or yoghurt as it's a fine powder, keeping the drink and yogurt smooth and not lumpy - resealable packet - only need 1tsp at a time - I really felt the benefits of boosted energy and a clearer, calmer mindset when having this in the morning What could be better: - 30g only lasted about 2 weeks - can be an expensive purchase for something you might want to have every day I would recommend this as a great starting point of getting into matcha as I think it tastes great and I could notice the benefits, but I is a little expensive if having 1tsp every day.

Great matcha! Tastes great! Only thing was that it didn’t last long. Maybe I’m just matcha obsessed

Lovely matcha, great fresh taste and a beautiful green colour.

Lovely and sweet, very little savoury or bitter flavour often association with matcha. Flavour profile map very helpful. Great microbial. Please restock!!

Great matcha for lattes. Tried it first as a pure matcha and was met with quite a bit of acidity and bitterness but when paired in a sweetened matcha latte is perfect. Great value for money considering the size, and perfect for making slightly stronger lattes.

Good beginner matcha, however, compared to other matcha powders you can get at a similar price, it is quite grainy and astringent. It has a nice colour and is best suited to baking. I tasted this graininess and bitterness even when making a matcha latte with milk, so it's necessary to add a sweetener for a good taste.

Very smooth, creamy and sweet. Bright green, perfect for my vanilla lattes. I have a matcha every single day. I love this matcha and would choose this over Naoki’s other ones any day!

Naoki’s Fragrant Yame Blend is hands-down one of the best matcha powders I’ve tried. As soon as you open the pouch, you're greeted by a fresh, grassy aroma with subtle sweet undertones—it’s clear this is a high-quality ceremonial-grade matcha. The flavor is smooth, slightly umami with no bitterness, and it froths up beautifully for lattes or traditional whisked matcha. I love using it for my morning ritual—pairs perfectly with oat milk or just hot water. It’s not the cheapest option out there, but the quality justifies the price. If you care about taste, texture, and authenticity, this is worth every cent. ✅ Pros: Rich, smooth flavor with zero bitterness Vibrant green color and fine texture Easy to whisk and froth Comes from a reputable, single-origin source ❌ Cons: Slightly pricier than culinary blends (but worth it for quality)

Es rico y de buena calidad

I drink only ceremonial grade matcha and I usually drink it straight with nothing added. I love to drink both Taste of Kyoto Reserve and also Element matcha and Wilderness Poets ceremonial grade. This Naoki is a delightful matcha. I ordered the Fragrent Yame Blend. It is rich and creamy, sweet. There is a slight grassy bitterness, but I think I make it strong so that might not show up if made weaker. Beautiful bright green color. I hope it shows in the photos, I did not use a filter so the green that you see is just what it looks like in the sunlight. Instant high energy boost. Very fresh. I think the $25 I payed is a good price for this matcha.

I have ordered this matcha 3 times already and so far I enjoy it! The matcha is green and smells nice as I whisk it. This Yame blend is on the medium bodied side and easy to drink with very little bitterness to it. For the price point and how easily accessible it is, I will keep coming back for more!

Pleasant taste. Vibrant color, not a lot of bitterness, blends well with oat milk to create an awesome matcha latte. I’ve tried a few different brands in recently and this is good in comparison. Finely stone milled, did not clump and didn’t need to sift with a strainer which saves on time.
