You get what you pay for.
By S. Krause
After finished several cans of DoMatcha Organic (which we REALLY love!!!), we decided to try the 2nd Harvest because of the cost factor. Along with the decreased in price and increased in quantity, we also noticed a significant diminish in the aroma, earthy good taste, and potency. It's noticeably bland as compared to the higher quality DoMatcha. But....if you've never tried the other grade and/or don't like the stronger taste, then this one isn't bad for the price. We prepared the tea the traditional way, with just hot water and whisking. In addition, it has more bitter taste than the green can DoMatcha.

good value for good matcha
By entropy_generator
Four of us did a blind taste-test of the 2nd Harvest against the 1.06-ounce premium. We were split down the middle as to which tasted better. If there is any astringency to the 2nd Harvest, it is very slight! Since that time we've ordered more, and are thoroughly enjoying it.

Impressed with the taste and quality
By Anonymous
This is an excellent matcha. I have tried several different mathcas of varying quality and from different suppliers, and this is one of the best. Everything about this matcha surprised me. From the package inside the tin keeping it fresh (expected it loose inside the tin), to the super bright neon green color and complicated, somewhat sweet taste. There is really no drink I enjoy more than a good matcha and this satisfies completely.

Aside from all the apparent tastes there are two sensations that lurk right below the surface but permeate the entire experience - freshness and pleasantness. They aren't tastes but a kind of experience that can't be seperated from the taste of the tea. Is this what is called the 5th taste, umami? I don't know but nothing else is as pleasant as drinking a fresh cup of this matcha.

I know there are other better matchas out there but is anything more expensive than $10/oz really worth it? I mean, will you actually be able to tell the difference between this and a ceremonial grade matcha selling for $30/oz? For me this is already too expensive to drink every day, but not so expensive that I can't enjoy a great cup occasionally. But if you already have a $3-5/day coffee/latte/frappe/stale teabag habit, then replacing it with this will be well worth it.
