Organic Matcha Super Premium Refill (120g/4.23oz)	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good...	738	10/08/2023
The Organic Super Premium matcha is a great deal. I tend to have matcha most afternoons, so buying the large refill is a good way for me to save some money on high quality tea. It froths up well and is mellow with a slight bitterness on some days, which I enjoy. Fun...(more)
OHIGASHI (handmade confectionary)	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good...	1852	12/12/2022
I do love these higashi. They melt in your mouth with just the right amount of sweetness. My tea guests, not that I have many, do remark on their design as well as taste.
[Limited] Shincha Matcha Refill (120g/4.23oz) Out of Stock	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good...	848	06/12/2022
I look forward to late May when the shincha matcha is available; it is so good. Very mellow and tastes like springtime. I liken it to the competition grade, but the price is much less. I highly recommend it.

I received this Shincha Matcha a few weeks ago and have had some time to make it and drink it a few times. I find it very mellow with a taste that brings Spring to mind. I know everyone is different, but there was no detectable bitterness to my sense of taste. We ha...(more)
Matcha Pinnacle Refill (120g/4.23oz)	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good...	1468	06/26/2021
Pretty great matcha. Mild, but with character. This is my everyday meditation tea. Not overly bitter, like some other brands. I recommend it both for formal chanoyu and for personal consumption.

As a daily ritual, I practice tea. The reward is that I get to drink a bowl, usually Super Premium or Pinnacle. Both are excellent. Subtle, not too strong... mellow. I usually get the larger 120 gram bag, since per serving it is less expensive. Really excellent tea. Be ...(more)
[Limited] Competition Grade Matcha PinnacleRefill(60g/2.12oz)	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good...	1578	04/01/2019
Okay, I get that the price of the Competition Grade Matcha is a bit expensive to buy. Not the everyday tea. But, as a once a year treat, it is unbelievable. In February, it is a taste of spring to come. The fragrance is that of spring...green grass and early flowers. Th...(more)
D:[RINPA HOUITSU] KACHOH ZU - SETSUBOKU (handcrafted) Out of Stock	Very bad... Bad... Very bad... Ordinary... Good...	1872	01/11/2017
My wife purchased this and gave it to me as a gift(yea, at my suggestion). It is an elegant chawan that is a great contrast to several "wabi-sabi" chawan that I usually use for tea. That contrast is very good for conversation during tea. All of the catalog d...(more)

I love the chawan by Bahan Sakata that I received from Hibiki-An. It is excellent for use in the Spring, with its sakura motif. I have attached a picture of the chawan in the chashitsu. Also, I am now exclusively using the Super Premium Matcha for my tea guests, as i...(more)
