Come with measuring spoon! ---- Green tea contains the highest levels naturally-occurring compounds called polyphenols that have powerful antioxidant properties. these polyphenols may help prevent certain types of cancers, lower the risk of heart disease and help ward off colds and flu. There is even evidence that when used as an ingredient in sunblock lotions, green tea may inhibit some types of skin cancers. When steeping tea leaves some of these beneficial compounds are extracted from the leaf, but you can never extract 100%.

 Very good - Green Tea Frappuccino addict Feb 07, 2007
By mvd
I have used this matcha daily for about 6 weeks now. It is very good for what I use it for. I make my own version of Starbucks Green Tea Frappuccino. (Once that drink name started to roll of my kids' tongues easily - I realized I was spending too much money on these drinks - and daily!)I am not familiar with various grades of matcha, but did not want something pre-sweetened or modified because I wanted to control the sugar, etc. I make my frappuccino like this: sorry - I do not measure - so you may have to modify these amounts because I am guessing!
1 1/2c milk
2 heaping spoonfuls (the spoon that's included) green tea powder
1/8c simple syrup (I make it myself and keep in fridge for week or so)
10+ice cubes (adjust to your taste - depends on size of cubes)
Blend this in a blender - longer than you think - pulse first then blend for a bit - I scrape down a bit bc the powder flies around a little and you don't want to lose any. (Simple syrup is 1c water, 1c sugar heated until sugar dissolves) It is much easier than it may sound - I make these daily in the morning. I hope this helps anyone else out there who is addicted to the GT Frappuccino - it is slightly different (I think they use a different gt powder and a honeydew syrup), but I liked mine MORE within the first week of having them!

Enjoy the Green Tea Benefit in many different ways Jun 09, 2006
By WorldTraveller
Green tea contains antioxidants such as flavonoid, EGCG, catechins (more powerful than vitamins C and E in halting oxidative damage). It is found that green tean is an effective remedy for rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular disease (block the oxidation of LDL (bad) cholesterol, increase HDL (good) cholesterol and improve artery function), and certain immune deficiencies. Furthermore, the fat-burning abilities of green tea make it an excellent weight loss aid.
Among all the green tea product, green tea powder is obviously the most concentrated form of the beverage. It is the easiest way to get all the benefits of green tea!
To make green tea powder, the tea bushes are sheltered from direct sunlight about three/four weeks before harvest. This slow down the growth, and also turns the leaves a darker shade of green and and tea is sweeter. After harvesting, when the leaves are laid out to dry, the leaves crumble and then are ground to the fine, bright green powder known as matcha, which roughly has the consistency of talcum powder.
Green Tea Powder (Matcha) has many grade, just like green tea (the price can be 1000 times difference!). This brand of green tea is not the highest grade, may not be the one for Japanese tea ceremonial. However, it is very green, and not bitter at all. I found it is quite good for its price. Since I am more interested in the green tea benefit than performing tea ceremonial, I prefer this matcha to save my wallet. There are abundant of green tea powder in each tin, that allow me to have many many usages, which can be beyond the kitchen...

(1) Prepare a greener and healthier green tea, by mixing some matcha into your daily cup - one of the healthiest beverages in the world
(2) Iced Tea: First mixing in a small amount in warm water until dissolved, then add to
iced water (add sugar if you wish) - a cooling refreshing drink in hot summer day!
(3) Make green tea fruit smoothie (prepare as you usually do, mix matcha with yogurt or milk and add to blender)
(4)Green Ice tea latte (matcha, honey, water (to dissolve) and milk, ice cubes). Similar for hot Green tea Latte.
As Food Enhencer:
(1) Use as flavor enhencer: add to milk, plain yogurt,
(2) Make green tea ice cream (Let Vanilla ice cream (yogurt, or frozen youart) stand until soft , mix with green tea powder, then refreeze it until hard
(3) Sprinkling a little matcha powder to soup, stew, or salad
(4) Use as an all natural food color with all the great benefits and pleasant fresh fragrance,
(5) Add to all kinds of Baking (Just add some to your favorite recipes)
(6) Mix into pasta, dash into any your favorite dishes
As Health and Beauty aid:
(1) Take small amount rub on the face as an all natural facial cleanser or facial scrub to remove make-up, clean out the oil and dirty. Great for Sensitive, irritated skin.
(2) Mix with olive oil, make a home made anti-wrinkle treatment.
(3) Mix into Shampoo, or directly apply to scalp for a gentle, yet effective cleanser.
(4) Mix with Toothpaste, or just directly apply to teeth and brush for a healthy, cleaner teeth and gum.
At last, but not least, PierMall is a great seller, very professional and effective in communication. The shipping can be greatly reduced if the order is in a large quantity, instead of one....

Great for the price & health benefits! Aug 10, 2006
By Neddie Ludd
"Neddie Ludd"
I suppose I'm unsophisticated about matcha teas since this is the first I've tried, but I really, really enjoy this matcha. It's smooth, mellow, and slightly sweet. I'm picky about loose green teas for steeping; some of those are bitter, & I DON'T like bitter tea. So my favorite teas are this matcha & white loose leaf teas. The cost is honestly too steep for me to buy other better rated matcha for the flavor, so I'm happy I can get this much tea for the price (I've got 3 kids & a lot of other priorities; maybe when I retire...). And for the price, I'm getting all the health benefits of any other matcha (you get all the antioxidants out of matcha since you ingest the whole leaf; brewing teas often makes the extracted antioxidants bitter), plus I don't feel too guilty using it on my face, either. Perfectly nice matcha for the beginner & the frugal. Gave some to my sister, also a novice to matcha, & she loved it too. Worth a try for the price.

 Not the best quality, but okay for the price Apr 27, 2006
By Cydd Tan
Teas vary greatly in quality and the price reflects that. This is a moderately price matcha tea so don't except the best flavor. It is nutritious so it may be better as a flavor additive to drinks, desserts, broth, etc. Real matcha can also be bitter and an acquired taste. Japanese often drink it with tiny sugar candies to offset the bitterness. Matcha also contains a lot of antioxidants so it may be helpful to some to stat incorporating it into their diet. If you don't like the taste an easy drink is to mix it with orange juice.

Good deal on green tea... Aug 22, 2006
By A. Gorjian
This matcha powder came in very nice packaging with a measuring spoon to use as well. The quality of the green tea powder was a bit less than I expected (compared to my past experiences with matcha), but I think its all about quantity here - I've done a lot of creative stuff with the powder thusfar, my favorite being the homemade green tea ice cream.
