I like hearing people speaking their native language. No matter if it is German guy speaking German or Aki speaking Japanese - it is always calming and beautiful.

I am so glad you did a video comparing Matcha. I used to have a beautiful matcha that a friend would bring back on from her trips to visit her in-laws. Her mother in law made her own matcha. I believe she lived on or worked at a tea farm. My friend has since moved there permanently, so no more home made matcha. So I have been using Jade Leaf. I would very much, like to see you do more videos on this subject. Also I like that you spoke both English and your native Japanese. It helps my ear, as I have been trying to learn Japanese. I hope one day to visit your beautiful country.

I, agree! Please keep these REVIEWS coming.

me not knowing anything abt matcha: ah yes that brand has a lot richness n umami I totally agree

I didn't realize there were so many kinds of matcha. After you have finished your comparison series, would you consider explaining all the steps in a traditional tea ceremony? I have seen it performed and it's a beautiful ritual, but there was no explanation of what was done and why it was done. Thank you for another great video.

Sure！

So helpful! I especially appreciate when people belonging to the culture of a dish or drink explain and discuss all of its qualities and the little things that might be missed otherwise.

This was wonderful! Thank you for taking the time to complete this in such a clear and easy to understand way!

I watched a few matcha comparing videos and this was by far the best! Thank you for all the work you put into it I am using it as my matcha trying guide now 🙂

This was very eye-opening! Thank you for putting in so much effort sharing the differences 🤩

Great video! Thanks for doing this - I trust your review and feel much more confident about what tea to select for myself.

Great comparison idea! Thank you! 🍃

Thank you for sharing your matcha experience and recommendation! I love the graph and the table, so helpful with decision making.

This was really well done! Thank you for trying them, can't wait to explore more with different brands as I drink through my tea journey!

Very informative and liked the way this comparison was performed. Great job and thank you!

Thank you for your thoroughness! This was very helpful and educated me a lot. Plus, it was enjoyable. I appreciate your channel so much!

Great video Aki👍🏽 As always, you’re very fun to watch.

The whole video was very informative & detailed. I especially loved the comparison graph that you made! Thank you for making this video!!

This is exactly what I was looking for. The chart is amazing, thank you!

Thank you very much for sharing your results and knowledge Aki. I’m looking forward to learning more with the macha available to me. ☺️

thank you this was a great video on matcha ! Also I'll be commenting more on your videos so that hopefully more people will see your content. The colour observation was also interesting.

Your methodology is flawless. Thank you for doing this!

I really enjoyed this style of rating! It was easy to understand and I learned a lot about matcha. I also loved listening to you speak your native language :)

Thank you for sharing this video. I am a tea matcha fan, and I learnt a lot. Thank you!!

Wow, such a well-done and thorough video. Thank you!

Yesss!!! I’m so happy! I was hoping you’d make this video soon! I know it’ll be one of the most popular videos on your channel :)

Best video on matcha that I’ve ever watched, thank you do much it was so so helpful! The way you rated the matchas and explained the flavor, textures and so on, great job! Looking forward for your next video!

Great video， love it ! ❤️ Looking forward to watch more in the future ！👏🏻

This was very interesting. Thank you for taking all the time and effort to test and rank the matcha according your liking. It would be interesting to also do a comparison of all organic matcha brands that you would like to try.

This is the best matcha review! The graph was very helpful! Thank you!

great video and review!! i can see how much time you have put into this, and i really appreciate it!!

I started drinking matcha after watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your passion for it!

This was wonderful to watch. Great insight to picking the best tasting matcha. Thank you.

Thank you so much for doing this!! I've been enjoying the Matcha Moon brand for a week now! So lovely. It has been nice to introduce this into my routine, alternating with my usual puerh tea drinking. I have served matcha to several of my students (I'm a high school teacher in the US) and they loved it! They were so excited, they've purchased their own matcha, chasen, and chawan!

Thank you for this video and for the links to matchas! I am looking forward to your next matcha comparison. I am a coffee drinker (from Canada) who is trying to find an alternative daily morning beverage that is a little healthier. My mom lived in Japan for a few years when she was little and I dream of going there with her one day. I also love your minimalism videos and have done many minimalist challenges myself, so thank you overall for your delightful channel!

The matcha taste matrix is very ingenious! Thank you for such awesome video!

That was very informative. A comparison depending of the cultivars or by region would be interesting!🍵

Nice video, well done, scientific method well applied! Would be cool to see one yearly for the same brands, to see how each year can affect them. Thanks for your videos!

Thank you so much for your informative and detailed matcha review. We're delighted that you found our Pure Zen matcha to compare favorably with the other brands you sampled. We will continue to do our best to provide the best quality organic matcha, both in Japan and abroad.

@Matcha Moon Thanks to this review I wanna try your Matcha (in the Netherlands but I'm gonna ask family to take it from US). Any chance you guys have a discount code 😉

This video is fun to watch it had a lot of information and I felt like your personality shine through and I found myself laughing at certain points

As a lifelong black coffee drinker im actually super interested in the bitter matcha, cant wait to try for the first time! Thank you for sharing friend :D

Great video Aki! very informative! I started drinking matcha every morning and I love it!

This video is wonderful. Thank you for exploring and teaching about matcha! I will try 2 g with 90 g water matcha tea today!

This is a very very very good video! You were incredibly thorough, accounted for personal preference, but also your experience with drinking them, the different ways to test quality, and price. I thought I'd need to watch several, but I'm just gonna use the information from your video. This video is the finest powder and the most vibrant green! ありがとうございました。

What a terrific video comparing various matcha brands. I love the flavor graph. Thank you for taste testing and for consuming all that caffeine for us. I'd like to recommend Ikkyu brand for your next test.

Thank you for this, this really helps me know that it's not just price that makes a good match 👍

I'm so excited to watch this and learn about matcha options! The one I bought at Costco in Canada is a bit bitter.

Thank you soo much for introducing us to the Matcha world. I'll say that the second one in your list is the best choice considering taste-quality-price.

I like when you go back and forth between English and Japanese. It's fun as a viewer. Also for some things its easier to describe in native language.

Hello Aki! 8 Months ago online-orders at your top 3 must have gone through the roof. 🙂It is so enjoyable to watch how much fun you have and how you enjoy presenting your thoughts and culture to the audience abroad. I did learn a lot. I just hope you did not go for a run/hike after the tasting. So much caffeine! ;-) Seeing how you divide the task into smal bits and presenting the outcome in charts makes my heart sing! Thank you for this exceptional matcha-test. Greetings from a a genmai-matcha fan in Austria PS: I found your channel just recently, so please don't be surprised, when I comment your past videos.

This review was very well organized and informative great review honestly this format is god tier everyone should rate stuff like this

Muchas gracias Aki por este vídeo, fantástico como siempre. Muy entretenido, relajante, divertido y muy bien hecho y explicado. I love it ❤❤❤

Amazing video enjoy it alot thank you for making this Hope to see alot more content from you ❤️✌🏻

This is a great video. i have started drinking matcha every day since watching one of your precious videos and really enjoying it. ありがとうございます。

Hi Aki, I can't thank you enough for this detailed introduction and review of matcha teas. I've been curious to try out this style of tea drinking for a while but was hesitant to buy a full pack since I don't know what it tastes like and was afraid it might be too bitter for my liking, and I wasn't sure what was the proper way of brewing it so it tastes its best. I'm happy to find out that there are sweeter varieties which I will give a try. Your steps are simple and really helpful. Thank you very much!!

Thanks for the video. Very well done and helpful

I will try one of your recommendations next time. I have an organic Korean one now and it is light colored and quite bitter. Those are beautiful green fields of tea!🥰

great video! thank you so much, good work!

Please, Aki, teach us something about tea ceremony and the art of how to prepare and drink matcha. 😁

wow, great idea and execution. perfect presentation, one could ask for nothing more.

Hi! I just have started drinking matcha 2 weeks now... I'm glad that I came across this 2-year old video. This is what I was looking for - an honest review with lots of options on the list 😊

YAASSSSS BEEN WAITIN FOR THIS

Yay! You used my comment at the beginning :) Thanks for making this video, it was very interesting and hello from Canada!

Thanks for doing this comparison ☺️

Love the passion and excitement you have, a pleasure watching these. It is extremely helpful as well when you are using your experience and being honest and humble about the review. Refreshing to see. Thank you so much for making this! I'm going to search for a pesticide-free one now, may add a little honey in it for the taste~~

Fantastic video! Thank you Aki San. I have been waiting for this video since you mentioned in one of your earlier videos about this matcha comparison. This gives me a better idea of which matcha brand to buy. Arigato gozaimasu!

I love your video so matcha, Aki. You are so funny, authentic and warm.

I’ve been drinking Jade Leaf from Amazon in the US and I love it, although it is my first matcha so I can’t really compare it to anything. I look forward to trying more brands. Thank you for getting me into matcha!

I'm US based too and I've come to really like some of the matcha offerings from Tezumi Tea. They are quite reasonably priced for the quality

Thank you for sharing. I've been looking to try some other matcha brands. I've used the same matcha tea for years. It always relaxes me to see people prepare matcha. I love the colour and the whisking process. Sweet matchas are a favorite of mine as well.

This is one of the video that I've been really waiting for! I used to buy several Matcha products in Kyoto or Uji when traveling in Japan was available. But I never knew which one is better than others so I just bought ones somewhat seemingly of good quality regardless of price. Now I could try some of the best ones that you recommend in this video! Thanks! But it looks interesting that price and taste don't go exactly in the same direction:)

I think that may also be because different people may think sweet is bad and bitter is good, taste is mostly subjective and this was just his ranking here. Other people may rank things differently!

As a minimalist, you have TEN favorite matcha brands😂 I‘m not a minimalist, but still have only ONE. Anyways, awesome comparison! Thanks!!

Very well made video. The scientific process of comparing. This is fun to watch

Loved this video! Loved that you also spoke in Japanese!

thank you for this informational video. I got Matcha Moon…and I enjoyed it!. i would have been lost and probably gave up on matcha if not watching your video. I will definitely going to try tour top 3 since I believe we have the same like in matcha taste. ;)

That’s a great comparison! I drink Ipoddo matcha daily but might have to try a couple of those that you recommend. It’s fun to experiment with tastes! Domo arigato!

Great information, thank you💕

Awesome review!

Thanks for making this video. I have only tried making match once, your #8 choice Wakou, which you said was bitter and light. No wonder I didn't enjoy the tea.😆 I I am excited to try the brands you recommended and look forward to seeing your next video about matcha tea!

Update: I just purchased two bags of Oi Ochoa Uji Matcha! Only $8 per 30g bag! Insane that it was your #2. Can’t wait to try!

Interesting comparison, I would love to try some of the high rankers after I finish my current stock of matcha 😂😂 If you are planning to compare only high-quality matcha, might I suggest to do 2 separate comparisons, one for usucha and one for koicha. I believe the different concentration and texture between usucha and koicha will make the comparison more interesting

This was fun thank you 😊

thank you so much , its been appreciated

Great video. Very informative. I want to drink matcha now🍵😊

Hello Samurai matcha! I got the matcha moon and i love it. I drink matcha every morning now, thanks for your inspiration! Cheers from Colorado, USA.
