Benjamin ★★★★★

The vivid jade green color when whisked is genuinely stunning, and the flavor hits that perfect balance of mellow umami with a clean, sweet finish. A 100g tin lasts me about two months of daily morning bowls, which is solid value for how smooth it brews.

James E. ★★★★★

I was a little worried about bitterness with a ceremonial grade, but the mellow umami and gentle sweetness came through just as described. Whisked up a smooth cup that finished bright and clean, no sharp aftertaste.

Jacob G. ★★★★★

The vivid jade green color when I whisk it is honestly stunning, and the mellow umami with that gentle sweetness makes my morning cup feel like a little ritual. It's bright and refreshing without any bitterness, even when I let it sit a bit longer than I should.
