Find matcha worth drinking.

Welcome to Matcha In — matcha and Japanese tea reviews written from Japan. We buy, whisk, and taste the teas ourselves, from everyday café-grade powder to single-cultivar ceremonial matcha from Uji and Yame.

If you have ever stood in front of ten green tins wondering which ones are actually good — and which are overpriced, stale, or not really ceremonial grade at all — you are in the right place.

What you'll find here

• Side-by-side comparisons of matcha brands you can actually buy overseas
• Plain-English guides: grades, cultivars, whisking, and how to spot stale matcha
• First-hand notes from tea shops and growing regions in Japan
