Rated 5 out of 5 by JaneElla So Versitile
This is my first experience with matcha. I've tried it hot, cold, in water by itself, sweet or not, with other juices / flavors, and in a smoothie. All good! I wanted a nutrient-dense food to incorporate into my diet, and this fits the bill. It seems fresh and of good quality - the color a bright, beautiful green - and if something could "smell green" this would be it! One minor inconvenience: Because the scoop is too long, I'd spill some while trying to fit it back in, so I transferred the tea to another container; no big deal.

Rated 5 out of 5 by hermione good value/effective
I even add this to my smoothies for a change of pace. The value is good as it is much more expensive in retail stores around me, and not easy to find.

We have enjoyed the Matcha Green Tea - very refreshing, with a mild taste. I enjoy knowing that I am receiving a mega dose of antioxidants as well as numerous health benefits.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Christelg Feel good using--
I am so pleased to have found this product on the Swanson site. It has so many health benefits and I feel good using it.
I sprinkle just a half teaspoon on my cereal or with my chia pudding concoction and let the product do the rest!
Thanks for providing a quality product!

Rated 1 out of 5 by sharic Very disappointed
The description calls this a Ceremonial tea, but it is not ceremonial grade! It is culinary grade... does not foam (even bought the bamboo whisk just in case). The color is not the brightest green either. I can get this grade much much cheaper elsewhere. Truly disappointed as I trust Swanson and like to count on what they say. Will not buy this again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by janm First Matcha Tea Powder
This is the first Match Tea Powder that I've tried. I like the tea and it's flavor. Weird to have tea foam when water is added but tastes like tea when consumed. Just have to remind myself to rinse the mug when done since the foam dries to the side of it. All in all, very good and would continue to buy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Librarygal My go-to energy drink
Love this powdered matcha and am recommending it to friends all of the time. Sometimes I brew a cup with honey, and sometimes I put a scoop into a bottle of cold water and shake it up. Either way, so pleased with the resulting energy boost. Lots of research available on the health benefits too!

Rated 1 out of 5 by nellieL not the EMERALD experience
I get my Matcha from Japan, and I got turned on to Matcha at a genuine Japanese tea house in NYC. It was the best high, mental clarity experience I've ever had. They served it hot or iced. My friend suggested the iced version at the time. It came in a tall clear glass, and it was the most beautiful EMERALD color you can imagine. They must've put melted white sugar in there, as it was yummy --because the truth be told, Matcha is bitter, pungently bitter, and can be unpalatable. This type of powdered green tea is particularly sensitive to the quality, but it is expensive. The higher the quality the less bitter. The Zen monks drunk copious amounts of it so they could meditate for long extended hours, or through the night. The monks developed a ritual, and a precise way of conjuring the brew. Not only the temperature (175), but most importantly the WHIPPING with a special bamboo brush so it acquires the delightful light green foam on the top. I will not say anything against Swanson's as I highly praise them, but this Matcha is not the classical tea experience. Yet, I did get a nice buzz from it, just was the worst tasting Matcha I've come across. The powder was on the brownish-olive side. However, it was super cheap, super convenient, and it would probably be great in a smoothie, so there you go!

Rated 5 out of 5 by DPinPDX Great product
This product was about 1/2 price from what I found it for in store. Works great mixed in smoothies, etc. If you're just looking for it as a drinking tea, the tea bags are easier to use. I'm using in hot water morning mix for a boost and have almost eliminated coffee all together.

I used to work at a Japanese restaurant and would drink matcha everyday. It's the best that I have found for the price. This tea is strong and very effective. Would definitely recommend.

Nothing will ever top Guayaki's Yerba Mate - the stuff is magical. But Swanson's Matcha is a solid second place on my list. It taste's like the real deal, mixes easy and is strong. Don't let that little scoop fool you. It's powerful stuff. makes me feel like a million bucks. Energy abounds. Gift of gods - thanks. People everywhere rejoice and buy this. Live a long healthy, happy and energy fueled life. yippee.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nutritiongal Excellent Matcha Tea
I mix a scoop of tea with a half dropper of vanilla cream stevia drops in a quart of water and drink throughout the day. I make 2 quarts in the morning, sometimes I change up the flavors and use lemon or add cinnamon. This helps me get my water intake for the day as well as the goodness of the tea.

My daughter loves this tea. She says it makes her feel good. She considers it healthy. We like to keep a good supply on hand. This is the best price I've seen.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Swaneehowiluvya Perfect.
If you like Kyo-green, to me this tastes similar. I was scared of a gritty leafy taste, but no! I used it with a can of diet ginger ale, then water to 16 oz., then a slice of lemon, and ice. It was delicious! Maybe place canister over napkin, paper plate, etc. so you don't waste any when opening, scooping,like I did. Then you can obviously bend the plate or napkin to pour that super-fine powder back into container or glass. This stuff is perfect! Plus, I totally trust anything with the Swanson label. Hard to do with companies I don't know, with stuff I am ingesting. Get this!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Beachcomber Quality Green Tea
I have never been a tea drinker, coffee is my beverage of choice. I have to drink decaf or I get jittery. This Swanson green tea gives me the energy boost I was looking for without the jitters. Because I am not a tea drinker I use one scoop daily mixed in with my orange juice. The green tea powder is very fine and feels like chalk. I use a small whisk and it mixes very well with cold juice and water. Ordering from the website is simple and delivery is around 5 days. The price is much lower than a brand I purchased earlier from another vendor that had brown rice fillers and did not mix very well. I will continue to use this brand. Swanson's is a quality product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by WorldGypsy Very Tasty
This is the first ever Matcha I ever had. It tasted good and instantly gave me a boost. Like, wake me up right now! Doesn't upset the tummy like coffee though. I've read where people described it as tasting like mud but it doesn't. I didn't make it very strong. Just one heaping scoop. I made a second bowl right after. Next time I'll use two scoops.

This stuff gives me energy and focus! I have tried other brands from this website and this is the one I like the most by far. You can tell if it's quality Matcha tea if you put some on the counter top and it smears like chalk. Will continue to purchase!

Rated 5 out of 5 by SavvyShopper3 Wonderful!
This is exactly what I wanted! It's great if you put a little stevia in it. I simply heated the water, stirred in a scoop of matcha with two stevia packets and viola! Perfect green tea! And I love the health benefits I've read about. I had lots of energy, even more than when drinking regular green tea!

This is my first time trying any Matcha. I make it using the instructions on the container. I also add a little stevia and almond milk. It's pretty yummy! I added it to my protein shake this morning and plan to do that more often.

You can make you're own S-bucks Frappe with this stuff, with a lot less sugar to boot. Mixes best in a blender added to a smoothie or protein shake.
