Green Matcha

Green Matcha Blend by Pure Matcha

Matcha, which means powdered tea. Has been enjoyed for over 800 years. Our Premium Ceremonial Grade Matcha is stone ground in the ancient way to produce the finest quality Matcha. Unlike regular green tea leaves which are removed after brewing. Matcha is whisked with water and consumed entirely. This ensures that Pure Matcha drinkers consume almost ten times a higher concentration of green tea anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, and fibers.

Yum! I do love a chawan of Matcha. There really are very few teas that I find more invigorating … it’s a great way to recharge in the afternoon.

And this one is OUTSTANDING! One of the best I’ve tried. Sweet, buttery smooth! Usually with Matcha I notice a bittersweet kind of flavor to it … but this one has NO bitterness at all, just sweetness. Very nice… Smooth, thick and lovely.

So after the June Steepster box, I wanted to try another matcha that was not a kitchen grade. To try out a good grade A brand after the steepster box sparked my interest. Looking at the reviews I wanted to try this one first.

I will say this is the first tea that I can actually feel the effect of the caffeine. I can drink a pot of coffee and then go straight to bed and not really think twice about it. This I can actually feel. I made two bowls of this a few days ago and I can feel it instantly. This is a good thing since I’m not a morning person. I feel great after drinking a bowl and want to start my day.
This matcha is buttery and smooth. It does not have a bite to it. I have had the Domatcha ceremonial grade and noticed a difference between the two. It has a nice green color to it and it smells fresh.

Okay…so…to continue on with my CHALLENGE to whoever wants to play today!
My song association with this one is ANOTHER KIND OF GREEN by John Mayer (trio)

This certainly is another kind of green and I mean that in the most awesome way!

This is a plain green matcha powder but the flavor is amazing! I may have used a bit more than suggested but I really like it! I mean REALLY like it!

It’s clean and slightly buttery. It’s a great green. The aroma and taste are both wonderful. Like I said…slightly buttery but also smooth…almost velvety. And this is without adding anything, folks! Amazing!

Still Awesomely-Awesome! See previous notes. I’m thinking it’s a Matcha Day :)

Matcha-Thon Matcha #5…
I was going to do their Black Tea Matcha but couldn’t pass their Green up! It’s TOP-NOTCH! See previous notes…on to the next :)

Even Better than the last! This must mean I have to raise it to a 100!!!!

okay…test 1…

I added 5 drops of NuNatural Cocoa Bean Extract to this heavenly green matcha and I will say it held up nicely! It’s wasn’t over the top flavored but it was a neat addition. It gave it a slight hint of a chocolate milky type taste!

Honestly…you can’t go wrong with this matcha! It’s as pure as they come! High quality and tasty! Very smooth! I’m going to play with match today…stay tuned…

I’m drinking this one specifically for Cofftea today…check out my previous tasting note. Stay Tuned for a Full Review on SororiTEA Sisters later this week!

Additional notes from today’s experience – I added more powder to this cup and it’s a little more grassy than my first attempt which is completely fine by me….but I am not going to lie I really like the buttery notes in my first attempt! WOW!

This time around this bubbled-up brilliantly! YAY!

backlogging…LOVE

Saved the best for last. Of the three Pure Matcha products I sampled, this was the one I saved for the tail end. The wonderfully odd wares took point, but now it was time to sip the flagship. I even bought a chashaku (bamboo spoon) for the occasion. The powder alone looked wonderful – bright, vibrant green. It was even loudly sweet-smelling. Prepping it was easy. It frothed up wonderfully when whisked. To the taste…wow…without exaggeration, this was the best matcha I’ve ever had. Sweet, kelpy, slightly-vegetal excellence. It was like hot, liquid green tea ice-cream.

Delicious smooth creamy refreshing taste. I preferred it over ice with added condiments such as milk and sugar but has a good natural straight taste as well. Something I could see myself drinking for a long time and never really lose interest. Highly recommended.

I am a big matcha drinker. I bought pure matcha from their website and I haven’t heard much about this brand other than some reviews on twitter and steepster. They seemed to have good reviews so I went for it. What I can tell you is that is 100% Ceremonial Matcha. definitely one of my favorites. It smells like matcha should smell, FRESH!!! The taste is even better. I created a steepster account just to leave this review so I hope it helps. See ya.

Dear Matcha: Thank you for being there when I am sad, happy, in love, angry, tired, heart broken and hung over. The smooth taste of your sweet and daring flavour sets my soul on fire.
Matcha, I love your guts. And my guts love you.

Wow I would have to completely disagree with ( Musilly ) on this one. And it looks like so did everyone else lol. But everyone is allowed to have their own opinion. I too have had all types of matcha like Domatcha, Rishi and tea vana. I have also been to japan and have had very expensive organic matchas. Im not sure if Pure Matcha is the Greatest Matcha ever but it is without question, one of the best matchas that i have ever had! Its so fresh, so vegetal, so delightful. The overtones are unreal. For the price you pay for a true ceremonial grade tea, its a great price. I think I paid about 24 dollars. There are matchas double the price but i dont see the quality difference. But there is no doubt that you giving them a 51 out of 100 is just silly.

A delicious matcha, a beautiful light green colored powder and a dark green liquor. It had a sweet, kelpy flavor with no bitterness whatsoever. My only complaint was that it came in a bag inside the container and it was a mess to get it out of the bag.

This is the best Ceremonial Grade Matcha that I have ever had!!!!! I have had 23 different types of matcha if anyone is asking lol. I couldnt believe how unbelievable the freshness was. It has a sweet vegetal taste. As I read other peoples reviews I see everyone pretty much agrees with me. Great price too if I do say so myself.

100% Ceremonial Grade Matcha! One of the best I have ever had. Better priced too than some other big Matcha names. I’ll be ordering more of this.

I have had plenty of matchas in my day, and let me just say that this matcha taste like heaven in a cup! I had no idea what to expect, but the taste was just like the title! PURE! So fresh with a beautiful scent. It had a creamy vegetal taste that is almost indescribable. I definitely recommend this tea to any and all tea lovers! Hands down, one of the BEST matchas I have ever had, if not the best.
