Tastes great, best price for this type of product
I found this product at Costco recently - not sure how long they will carry it for - and decided to try it. My main applications for matcha is for use in lattes and desserts. This product is from Japan, and has the brighter green colour and less bitter taste compared to matcha powder from China or Taiwan. The pricing at Costco is the best I've found so far for Japanese matcha powder and is more affordable than buying small amounts. It comes in a vacuum-sealed foil package, inside the cardboard can, which has a tight tin stopper lid.
There is another type of matcha powder that has a more granular appearance and stronger taste - it usually comes in glass jars - and this isn't that type. However, for the price and availability, this product is well worth it. I would totally recommend this to anyone who uses matcha regularly.
