Delivery: delivery was super quick, I am located in an area that is far from the city and delivery usually reach me after 5-10 days. However I got mine in less than 48 hours, I understand that this company is somewhere in the Western Cape and I am In Mpumalanga. They contacted me to confirm the address on the first day and the following day my order was at my doorstep. 10/10
Product: It is a superior product without a doubt. The best products are usually in the smallest quantity or packages. It’s super green, darkish compared to the previous matcha I bought from another store which was light. This is definitely the real deal, after opening the tin packaging, green smoke comes out…keep it the stated temperature to maintain the freshness, mine still has the green smoke coming out after 2 weeks
Packaging: the small container is the best, free from plastic and it maintains and keeps the matcha at the required temperature but this needs you to follow instructions on its storage. It comes sealed which makes sense coming from a long distance. It only makes sense as the production companies charge weight…but in this case this is shipped from Japan and border expenses are high. So that needs to be considered as well.
Personal input based on experience: I don’t suffer from any sickness or conditions that I know of, I’ve been drinking matcha for over a year now after switching from the tea bag green tea. Matcha helps alot with my digestive system, boosts my mood all the time, energy is amazing as it lasts the entire day. Take note that I only drink one cup and it’s a quarter spoon size that I am using…in my case I think with the diet I eat everyday makes it easy for matcha. The two go together very well, Matcha and good healthy food. Works even on a poor diet but I would recommend improving your diet as well to ensure that you get the best of the two. For example I usually have it in the morning after I ate avocados and bananas with Brown bread. Be careful, it is not recommended to eat and drink at the same time to ensure that your body has enough time to absorb all the nutrients.
Conclusion
This is worth the price don’t be frustrated about the size of it. It just shows how authentic the product is. So far this is the best place in South Africa to buy your matcha tea.
