Naoki Matcha Fragrant Yame Blend – Authentic Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Yame, Fukuoka (40g / 1.4oz)

Really like this matcha. The only one I have bought. I also go the one that is mainly for baking from the same brand. Works well with cookies too. Have been buying since.

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 bitternessVibrant green color and fine textureEasy to whisk and frothComes from a reputable, single-origin source❌ Cons:Slightly pricier than culinary blends (but worth it for quality)

The taste, the bright color, it’s just sooo good

I subscribed to the 100g pack, but the taste wasn’t as good as the smaller 1.4 oz can I had before. I’m wondering if they are actually the same product and quality. The packaging says they are, but the flavor seems different , less fresh or smooth. Still decent overall, but I expected better consistency.

My favorite everyday matcha!! I little more fragrant and strong so it is the best for lattes. I used to order from the site but now I can get it faster from amazon. Great size for how much you pay!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:smooth, great color, and sweet!

I purchased another matcha from this company before and it was great.. but this particular one had what appeared to be shaved bamboo or something in it. I didn't catch it my first cup, and had severe throat irritation afterwards. Made a latte tonight and noticed all of these flecks... thought it might have been my bamboo spoon, nope. Because even after cleaning everything and using a metal spoon still same outcome. Looking into the canister I see it's littered with these wood/bamboo shavings. Yikes.

My daughter enjoyed the floral and fruity flavor of this vibrant green matcha.
