This is my favorite match; it goes well with any type of milk, and I always enjoy drinking it

This is my favorite matcha to try from Ippodo Tea so far!
I always make matcha lattes because I can't drink it raw and this one needs no added sweeteners for me at all! My sisters tried it to and they love it so I'd say it is a great option for one who wants to start their matcha journey
I'm so glad they made a larger version of it that I'll be getting very soon xD
