ain't it grand?
Delicately smooth and velvety, with a bright green color and refreshing taste, Grand Cru Matcha is one of the highest grade (and most delicious) matchas on earth. To make it, every vein is lovingly removed from green tea leaves, which are then ground into a superfine matcha powder that whisks into an impossibly creamy brew. The ultimate energy boost, detoxifier and treat-yourself tea.
What Makes It Great:
- This matcha fave is now Certified Organic!
- The fine grind makes this matcha green tea super creamy & smooth.
- Matcha is a labour of love—it's made by removing the stems and spines of the tea leaves and then grinding the leaf into a fine powder. Because you're ingesting the entire leaf, you get 100% of the benefits, plus an energy boost.

<span itemprop="description">The tea is great. Love the flavor. But I was pretty aggravated with the packaging. When I opened it, a decent amount of the tea went everywhere because some of the powder was outside of the seal. This stuff isnt cheap, so that was pretty upsetting.</span>

<span itemprop="name">Good taste, doesn't mix well</span>
<span itemprop="description">While this matcha has a nice taste, I have found that it is more difficult to properly mix and I am left with more little clumps at the bottom. I use an electric handheld whisker which is pretty thorough at blending the matcha powder normally. I have not had this issue with the Matcha Matsu or any of the flavored matcha from David's. Additionally it says online that 2oz should made 45-50 cups using 2-3 spoonfuls, but I have found it can only make 22 cups using just 2 spoonfuls (I use the matcha measuring spoon from David's).</span>

<span itemprop="description">OMG! David's ceremonial Matcha is the real deal.
I have been drinking Matcha for a long time and have
tasted many brands and types so believe me when I say this is one out of this world great.
nice bright green color, no bitter finish and thick froth upon preparation. Get ready to blow your mind away. I drink my matcha without any sugar and cold so my matcha has to be of excellent quality or else you can taste the bitterness, David's matcha does not disappoint.......LOVE!!!!</span>

<span itemprop="name">Not the same quality/different product</span>
<span itemprop="description">I've been ordering grand cru matcha for YEARS, and it's always been good, color, taste quality. Ever since they changed it to only selling it in the tins, it's been different. The first time I got it, it was a very dull green, the taste was different, not as effective. I thought it was just a one time thing but I seems I'm not the only one. Now the options of matcha are completely different, and very limited. Im sad that I'll have to find a new place to order my matcha from, but I don't feel were getting the true product. Bit of a shame</span>

<span itemprop="name">Disappointed</span>
<span itemprop="description">I have been purchasing the Grand Cru Matcha in the smaller 2oz quantities for about 5 years and it is generally pretty consistent in it's quality of color (bright green) and taste (sweet, smooth, vegetal). The matcha that came in the Grand Cru tin seems like a completely different matcha. The color was a dull muted green, and the tea had no real flavor, it was flat, thin, and bland. It's drinkable as a latte, but disappointing.</span>

<span itemprop="name">Good matcha, doesn't mix well</span>
<span itemprop="description">I've been drinking a lot of matcha lately. I started mixing plain matcha with the flavored matcha so it's less sweet. I use a milk frother to mix it, and the flavored ones always mix well on their own. The matcha matsu also mixes well with the flavored ones and on its own. There is nothing at the bottom of the cup when I finish drinking. This one always stays in clumps at the bottom of the cup. I know it's this one because I tasted the clumps to figure out which mathca it is, and it's plain and kind of bitter in its concentration. The taste is good when diluted and mixed VERY well, but it just generally doesn't mix/dissolve well. I'll be buying the less expensive matsu to mix with the flavored ones.</span>

Hi CVilla! As one of the highest grades of matcha, Grand Cru is a labour of love and sometimes sells faster than we can replenish it! But we have good news&mdash;it's back in stock on our US site and available now. 💚

I Love the David's Tea Grand Cru Matcha, I make a latte with Coconut Milk and I use Stevia in the raw. &nbsp;It takes a little time to get used to, but it's worth it. &nbsp;It doesn't give me the up/down that tea does. &nbsp;Good luck!

It's not ceremonial grade. It's fairly bitter like supermarket matcha which is a joke given its price.

How many OZ do I need to purchase to get it in a tin or does this only ship in 2oz packets? I'd prefer a tin so I can get the most out of the order for $30. Unfortunately stores are closed due to Covid.

<div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: Yamba</div>
<div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="9718545">
I only bought 2 OZ because this is best fresh and you can make A LOT out of that. Other matches I have bought come in small thins but the standard David's tea Tin can probably hold 8 OZ of matcha because is such a thin powder. Usually if you buy 4 OZ you get a free Thin or maybe they have one already in a Thin set. Make sure to buy the special ceremonial bamboo mixer, it does help to mix it the right way.
