Is it just for baking?** A: Culinary quality matcha is a "lower grade" than normal, ceremony grade matcha. In other words, not QUITE as much painstaking attention is taken to ensure the top-of-the-top, cream-of-the-crop flavour. Ceremony grade matcha will cost at LEAST $20 an OUNCE, and that's from some general retailer such as Teavana. Culinary grade doesn't mean it's bad...but sometimes it can be. Culinary grade is about 6-8 dollars an ounce. I haven't yet tried this kind, but it's come highly recommended to me. (And no, it isn't just for baking. It's just...not quite suited for drinking alone. Not smooth/sweet/fresh enough. Smoothies, lattes, cookies, ice cream...they should work just fine with this. Matcha banana smoothies, matcha cookies, and matcha ice cream are heavenly. :D ) **Q: How do I prepare this matcha?** A: If you're asking about how to prepare it for drinking...You need a chasen (whisk) and little matcha scooping spoon. (see something like: http://www.amazon.com/ThinkBamboo-Cooking-Tea-Whisk-chashaku/dp/B003VSEG7Q/ref=pd_sbs_k_1) The basic idea is that you put a scoop or two (or more) into a bowl, and then add hot water and whisk it vigorously until it becomes foamy, I think. I am no expert, but that's how I do it and it seems to work and taste pretty good. I don't think you have to worry so much about the very precise, ceremonial details with this matcha though as it is culinary grade not ceremonial, but it definitely does the trick! **Q: In "about the product" it says "made in united states," while the photo of the can clearly says, "product of japan." what is correct?** A: The can states in a couple of places that this product is "100% natural green tea powder imported from Japan", it is imported by G. T. Japan, Inc. in Irvine California and may be repackaged there, I'm not sure. **Q: Is there a difference between the culinary and universal matcha from this same brand?** A: there isnt any difference that i noticed. it tastd the same to me. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Matcha addict 🍵💞 *by L***N on August 27, 2025* This matcha is soo good i cant stop buying it! its such a nice blend & thats that perfect earthy green texture & color. its not sweetened but makes up for it through its consistent taste. i find this brand to be organically harvested & true to its product ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Matcha on the market. *by V***B on January 29, 2026* The Best Matcha on the market hands down. You can't beat the real energy and the taste let's you know you've never tasted this quality before. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I loved it but.... *by S***A on March 15, 2018* I got these in today and it smells, looks, and tastes amazing! This is definitely high quality. The color is nice too. The only thing I didn't like was that they said it would be 30g but it's 28g and they also put it in a sealed package (I guess for sanitation reasons but it takes a few grams away). If you don't mind the 2g difference, this product is really good! ## Frequently Bought Together - Maeda-en Culnary Matcha Green Tea Powder - Maeda Shiki Matcha Green Tea, 1-Ounce - Maeda-En Matcha Ceremonial Quality Green Tea Powder, 1-Ounce --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/1298152-matcha-culinary-quality-1-ounce](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/1298152-matcha-culinary-quality-1-ounce) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-05-07*
