It calms me down after hard day
Very nice and tasty treat to use with cakes, I love the taste and smell of Matcha ,great taste
I recently ordered tea from Chikiriya Tea House, and I am beyond impressed. The shipping was incredibly fast, and there were no issues at all with the delivery. Everything arrived in perfect condition, and the quality of the products is top-notch. I will definitely be ordering from here again.
Great product. Loving the fact that the price includes international shipping and taxes! Will be ordering again soon.
I finally finished the 40g, and I absolutely love the flavor. It’s very fragrant, with little bitterness and no astringency. It pairs perfectly with milk! I will definitely be buying more!
This is a perfect product.
The perfect combination iof my favorite things - almond and matcha! It tastes premium and very tasty 😋 Something very hard to find here in Germany. You can taste the intense matcha - but in perfect balance not too overpowering. The perfect snack!
I’m a new matcha drinker and my first time buying from this brand. One of the best and also ships to Germany. I am very very satisfied. The matcha itself is very fragrant and delicious! I don’t taste any bitterness at all. You can taste the good quality it has. Easy to foam with beautiful green color. Price is very affordable for the amount. Perfect for every day matcha, especially since I like to drink it as thin tea (usucha).
