## Description

desertcart.com: Kiyo Matcha Classic Grade Hatsumukashi Ceremonial Uji Matcha - Pure Japanese First Harvest Ceremonial Grade Matcha Green Tea Powder from Uji, Japan (100g/3.52oz) : Grocery & Gourmet Food

Review: Delicious! - Quality is superb! I tried the ceremonial vs the Imperial and there is hardly any difference so I'm staying with this one. Perfect, smooth, never bitter taste. Blend is finely ground and smooth. Nice size, lasts for about 2 weeks (I drink 1-2 cups a day). A bit pricey but work it because of the quality and tase. Super easy to use. I make mine with water.
Review: Worthwhile during the sale! - I’d recommend this if you’re (1) a pure matcha lover who wants to taste the matcha itself (water > milk), (2) you have a machine/frother/blender for mixing, and (3) flavor-wise you like umami, fresh, hint of floral more than seaweed, and (4) it’s at sale. For reference, I’ve had most of the introductory level ceremonial grade matcha across desertcart/North America/ China. I had some during Kyoto as well but not a lot. I bought this Heritage version Matcha during a Cyber Sale for $44. I’ve never tried Kiyo, I had purchased some of ippodo or Naoki products in the U.S. I’m comparing it against other matchas I’m available of: Naoki Yame ceremonial grade ($37/100g) and Matcha lab’s 7th ceremonial grade matcha ($17/200g but in China, you can’t beat the price). For this kiyo matcha (the one in the tin), it is hands down the greenest in my stash, though my other have been opened longer (one for ~2 months, one for ~2 weeks) but I stored them all in the fridge to delay oxidation process. Flavor-wise, it tastes super fresh and clean. I’m satisfied (yes, satisfied) that it has none of stale tea-powder note. I love whisker but also I’m rush to commute this year, I hate when my matcha is not completely blended. So a blender and a milk frother comes in handy. While this powder can be a bit more stubborn to fully disperse, once it’s mixed it stays bright, vibrant green for the longest time compared to the others. I would agree that water (something with less favor or aroma) goes the best with it. Milk will cover its flavor, and this one I’ve tried 4 g per 100 mL/2g per 100ml. It is not bitter at all, and it finishes with a really pleasant sweetness after the initial fresh, crisp taste. Tho it raise my energy up if I had 4g, it did it supper smoothly, no jittery or anxious spike. Quality absolutely more than 4 star This is so far the best I have for it taste umami, no bitterness, and bright) Value for money: I didn’t regret it. However, $56 is a bit overpriced.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Higher-end Matcha
*by S***D on February 7, 2026*

Kiyo's Ritual Grade is a fantastic higher-end matcha. I make my matcha using 3g of powder in ~50ml of water, so it's kind of a light Koicha. Kiyo's Ritual Grade is perfect for it! It has essentially no bitterness, a sweet flavor, creamy feel, and moderately long aftertaste. I prefer it to Naoki Superior Ceremonial, Naoki Fragrant Yame, and Rishi Ceremonial Matcha. Granted, Ritual Grade is higher quality than those other three, but it's quality shows through.
