Simply the best!

It's been more than a year since I have replaced coffee with matcha, a more healthier caffeine alternative and better overall for the gut microbiome.
I have tried many, so called authentic japanese matcha brands, but Maison Koko Yame is superior! It is very smooth and mellow, with a slight sweet aftertaste. The vivid bright green color is a joy to behold in a clear vessel. Absolutely lovely and thank you for making this so accessible!

Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful review, Kim! We’re delighted to hear that our Premium Matcha Powder (Yame) has become a part of your daily ritual. It’s incredible that you’ve embraced matcha as a healthier alternative to coffee—your dedication to wholesome choices is inspiring! 😊

Yame matcha’s smooth, mellow profile and natural, slight sweetness truly shine, and we couldn’t agree more about how stunning its vibrant green hue looks in a clear vessel. It’s all part of the matcha experience we’re passionate about delivering.

If you’re ever curious to explore even higher-grade matcha, we'd highly recommend checking out our Premium Ceremonial (Single Cultivar) Range.

Excellent Matcha

My mother bought me this matcha as an early birthday present. I drunk this both by itself and as a latte using a bamboo whisk. As a latte, it works really well, retaining characteristic matcha steamed flavour and delicious texture. By itself it was flavourful and almost sweet. I would drink this again- it's clear that a lot of attention to the tea was given by the farmer.

Thank you for leaving such a positive review of our Premium Matcha from Yame! We are thrilled to hear that you loved your birthday present. It's great to know that you were able to appreciate the unique flavour profile of this matcha both on its own and as a latte. We're happy to hear that it met your expectations and we appreciate your recognition of the hard work put in by the farmer. It's our top priority to ethically source the best from certain tea farms for the most premium and authentic experience. Thanks again for taking the time to share your love and support in such great detail! We look forward to assisting you with any future purchases. Hope to have the pleasure of serving you again soon.

Bought a few matchas of different cultivars and this is good for usucha

Bought a few matchas of different cultivars. Found this matcha is good for usucha as it offers sweet and smooth profile. It frothes very well too.

Hi Nelly,

Thank you for sharing your lovely feedback ✨

We’re so glad to hear you’ve been exploring different cultivars and found this matcha perfect for usucha.

It sounds like you have a great appreciation for quality matcha. We hope this one continues to be a favourite in your collection ✨

Love this matcha

Love this matcha. Been using it to make matcha latte and it's perfect! Tasted like those store bought latte (or even better)! On drinking as traditional usucha, it offers sweet umami taste.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review!

It’s lovely that you’re enjoying that smooth, sweet umami flavour and finding it just as good (if not better!) than café-style lattes.

We hope it continues to make your matcha moments a little more special every day ✨

Thank you for the wonderful 5-star review, Pui ⭐
