Enjoy the Green Tea Benefit in many different ways 
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...

Thanks alot!!
Not the best quality, but okay for the price 
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.
Quality is just ok. Shipping was super fast! 
Considering how much matcha you get, this product is probably a pretty good deal, especially if you're new to green tea and can't really taste much difference between grades. However, if you're used to a ceremonial matcha, this definitely isn't it and I would go elsewhere.
I agree with the reviewer before in that the shipping from Pier Mall was superfast. I received the product in two business days!
