I already tried it this morning but I did not get the chance to take a pic because I was in a rush, but I LOVED IT! I think im gonna buy again when <33 im happy i bought it here, legit seller

Their premium ceremonial is my go-to matcha. Really grateful to japanmatcha.ph for bringing this gem really accessible to Filipino enthusiasts! 🫶🏼🥹

this was my 2nd purchase already and it never disappoints <3 hopefully youll start selling bigger bags!

first time purchasing the dark roast hojicha but ive tried your regular hojicha before which i rly loved so it was no surprise that i fell in love with the dark roast as well!

My first "legit" matcha and it honestly did not disappoint 🍵 I’ve been eyeing this Yabukita matcha for months, so finally buying it felt like such a treat and thankfully I have zero regrets. The first time I made it, I immediately noticed how smooth and balanced it tasted. I really love the umami in it, rich but not overpowering, and it doesn’t have that harsh bitterness that some matcha can have.

I usually make it as a matcha latte with oat milk, and somehow it makes the flavor even better. The oat milk brings out the umami and makes everything taste extra creamy and comforting. It’s the kind of drink that makes you slow down and actually enjoy the moment. <33 will definitely repurchase!

Yame Matcha Premium Ceremonial Grade tastes great with Oatside. For its price and quality, it’s definitely worth buying 🍵

I use 2 tsps for my matcha latte and it already taste good without any sweetener. It pairs perfectly well with oat milk (iced), while I prefer drinking it hot with soy milk. It’s umami taste and earthiness is balanced, and it has the right amount of sweetness to it.

I use 3 tsps for baking cookies and I can say that it tastes really really great! It’s sad that I’d have to wait to buy another matcha can (bc it’s expensive 😅) so I can bake matcha cookies again. Nevertheless, I’d definitely recommend trying this one and I’d definitely buy this again!!

I prepared it as usucha, koicha, and a latte—and for me, it truly stands out as a koicha and latte. I also did a little taste comparison with Ummon, and Asahi definitely tastes like a sweeter version of it. It’s officially part of my top 6 matcha favorites, which I’ll be sharing soon!✨

🍀aroma: fresh grass, buttery, bit toasty
🍀texture: creamy, smooth, velvety

🍀⭐️koicha: rich umami, mellow vegetal notes, sweet, toasted undertones, touch of bitterness

🍀usucha: delicate umami, sweet, floral undertones, lingering aftertaste, pleasant astringency

🍀⭐️latte: mellow vegetal notes, natural sweetness, a touch of bitterness with a pleasant savory aftertaste, rich umami

🍀kinda reminded me of
as koicha: Kinrin
as usucha: Wako
as latte: Ummon

Perfect for daily matcha!!

First time ordering matcha from this shop, and I’m seriously impressed. Shipping was fast, and the packaging was clean, secure, plus the freebies! ❤️

Really happy with the quality and will definitely order again!

Perfect balance of Umami and Vegetal 🫶🏻 made matcha with this twice and enjoyed both times. Will definitely repurchase!

I love this so much! It's my first ever tin can of matcha and it's by YK. It's one of the most affordable good quality matcha and I would definitely buy again someday!

Beginner friendly, medium bodied, sweet, creamy and nutty. Lives up to it's description. Easy to drink, no bitterness and no astringency. Definitely repurchasing this!

This is my first time trying single cultivar and I am happy that I tried it first with Yabukita especially since it's one of the most grown and used cultivars in blending matcha flavors that we commonly know. Given its simplicity, it really made me appreciate how matcha is meant to be consumed despite Yabukita being known to have a bitter and astringent profile (hence why it is often recommended for latte and baking).

Upon opening, I was met with a grassy and sweet smell. It also has a slightly dull green color.

As usucha, it tastes very tart, earthy and has astringency. If you have been to Japan and got to try iced usucha from a mom and pop shop, IT TASTES EXACTLY LIKE THAT!

As latte, the earthiness and astringency became more prominent and the tartness doesn't really show. As expected, milk can overpower the taste of matcha. So if you intend to use it as a latte, don't be shy to put in more powder ;)

I can definitely still see myself drinking this in usucha form whenever I feel like reminiscing Japan :)

very happy to secure a tin from YK, it smells and taste mainly like nori which I'm not a fan off but for this price point, I'm glad to be able to try it!! The seller packed my package with alot of care and was very happy to see that they gave me a small hojicha sample and a , thank you so much!! Will definitely be back soon 👀👀
