Chiran Harvest Masters Collection

As a regular matcha drinker, I was excited to try this Chiran Harvest Limited Edition from Naoki, and it’s a total game-changer. The color is a stunning, vibrant green and the powder is incredibly fine. I usually make my matcha with almond milk, and this one blends beautifully. Because it's from the Chiran region, it has this rich, smooth umami flavor that pairs perfectly with the nuttiness of almond milk. Most importantly, there is absolutely zero bitterness, so you don't even need to add any sweeteners. It makes the most velvety, high-end matcha latte at home. Definitely worth every penny, I will be restocking!

Matcha in the evening to me is like my morning coffee. I used to purchase matcha from Japan. But import fees are ridiculous now. So I thought I would give this a go. Now like coffee, matcha varies in its tones and sweetness when it comes from different places. Even though this is not the same as the one from Japan, it’s very very good matcha considering every factor. Also it’s very rich so if I make a tea, I only use half a tsp, and very thick so great for Koicha (“thick”). I cannot get over how the flavour comes through so lovingly in a latte! Usually when you go to a coffee shop to get a matcha latte, it tastes nice but there is a slight after taste because they are not using ceremonial grade matcha, they are using the very cheap slightly dull green matcha. Here when I make a matcha, the flavours come through, the colour is beautiful and it tastes cosy and is perfect before bed. The Japanese imported matcha didn’t handle well being in milk but I would purchase the cheapest he sold because the thicker matcha like this was too much for me to import. I’m so happy to have discovered this, I really hope they don’t change the quality or the price. I am aware things are rapidly changing with our British economy. But pleeeeeaaasseee always stay affordable and if the highest quality.

So after reading all the reviews I decided to go ahead and try this brand of matcha. It smells very earthy and grassy. It is much better than some other brands on amazon. This particular brand is not very bitter and is probably a good choice if you are just starting out with matcha. Overall its a good matcha. Just a quick Tip!! avoid using soya milk if you are making a matcha Latte Either use normal Full fat milk or alternative milk like Almond, Oat and coconut. I make it both ways just with water and usually in the mornings when I am going to work I make a matcha latter. Also invest in a milk frother it makes it smoother when you drink your matcha latte. I hope this helps MATCHA LOVERS. LOVE AND LIGHT

Love this matcha. Amazing vibrant green color, sweet aroma and lovely balanced taste, very easy to mix and froth. I find it ever so slightly on the coarser side, comparing to for example Bi matcha (my favourite) but that might be just me being too picky. Tried more expensive matcha few times but I always go back to this one or the Bi matcha. In my opinion, this is one of the best matcha on amazon and for a great price.

wow! i’ve tried a few matcha powders and am still trying to find what i like and prefer in a matcha and i was very taken back at how strong this matcha is; i now have to use half what i usually have to use. overall very intense smell and taste almost nutty, not bitter at all and very fine texture! great value for money the first matcha i will be repurchasing.

my fav flavor of matcha! bright , smooth, balanced taste but as an everyday matcha drinker, the price is enough to deter me :(

This matcha is really good quality. Wish there was more in the pouch but the taste was very nice.

At first it smelled & tasted like seaweed when i was using boiling hot water (i’m a matcha beginner) but then when I cold whisked it, and used oat milk it tasted way better. Reminds me of black sheep coffee’s iced matcha latte. I also like to rim the sides with honey .
