FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where does your Matcha Green Tea Powder come from? Japan. Our 100% pure shade-grown Matcha Powder is sourced from family tea farms in Japan.
Do you add anything to the Matcha Powder? No! Our organic Matcha Powder does not include additives.
Does the Matcha Green Tea Powder have caffeine? Yes! Each half-teaspoon (1 gram) serving of Matcha contains roughly 25-35mg of caffeine, which is approximately one-third the caffeine of a cup of coffee. Matcha is easily tolerated by people who experience jitters and crashes from coffee because all of the other components that make up Matcha slows down the release of the caffeine into the body.
Is the bag resealable? Yes! Our Matcha Powder comes packaged in the highest quality kraft bags. The bags are made with a resealable zipper, foil lining, rounded corners, and a tear notch for easy opening.
How can I use Matcha Powder at home? Mix into lattes, smoothies, baked goods, desserts and other recipes. See some of our favorite recipes below :)
Is your Matcha Powder Non-GMO? Yes!
I have an allergy, can I consume your products? In addition to Milk, Egg, Soy and Wheat Allergens that are produced at our facility, we also handle products that contain both Tree Nuts and Peanuts. FGO purchases ingredients from suppliers who follow good manufacturing practices which includes allergen management control. FGO follows the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act requirements for labeling of all our products. Given that our products are produced in facilities that contain common allergens, our recommendation would be to avoid our products if you have a common allergy, out of an abundance of caution.
What if I don't like it?

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
The underlying black tea is a good mix of Keemun and Assam. The Keemun makes for a lighter tea that does not drown out the Bergamotte oil, or force an amount that makes the tea taste soapy. Twinings itself has replaced most of the real Bergamotte oil with extract and their website doesn't say how much real Bergamotte is left. I still like Twinings Earl Grey, it's been my family tea for more than half a century, but knowing that this organic product uses only the real thing (2% organic Bergamotte content, as per ingredient list) is an extra star in my book. The tea that arrived was super fresh with an aromatic scent (expiry date end of January 2023), which is important as the bergamotte oil fragrance and tea aroma will evaporate over time.
The taste is a delicious, light to medium strength Earl Grey, great on its own or (for lighter taste) mixed with 1/3rd Darjeeling. If you are used to soapily strong Earl Grey variants or those made with Assam alone, you may find it too light. If you like Twinings, you'll probably like it alot.
I have not been able to do a direct taste comparison side by side, as I ran out of Twinings before this arrived, but as I am sitting here, sipping a cup of the hot, dark-golden liquid with a small teaspoon of cane sugar, tasting a well balanced mix of light black tea and bergamotte oil, I am letting out a satisfied sigh. I am finding this one to be an excellent substitute.
Update 2021: Had 3 1-pound-bags of this in the meantime, and all of them were perfectly aromatic and tasty.
Preparation instructions:
Serve in thin-lipped bone-china cups of approx. 6oz size (better sensory experience than mugs for delicate teas, see image).
Use 2 tea pots and a straining sieve: one pot to steep the leaves and another to strain the brewed tea into, in order to get the leaves out before they turn bitter.
Bring 3 cups / 24 oz of water to boil, pour over 6g (0.22oz) Earl Grey tea leaves while still boiling. The leaves should float freely in a pre-warmed tea pot. For less or more tea, just multiply or divide water and tea by the same amounts.
Strain after no longer than 3 minutes of steeping through a tea-straining sieve into the serving tea pot. (I am setting a timer to 2:40 min brewing time and don't stress over 20 seconds more). When I strain the tea, I either stirr the leaves right before, or let the leaves drip from the sieve after straining, to get all the full, concentrated tea. (if you accidentally steeped it too long, you can try decanting without stirring the leaves and it might save you from a bitter experience). I drink it with a little cane sugar and a piece of bread with something sweet on it, and thereafter, my brain starts working. If you are a Trekkie and have not tried what Picard's favorite drink really is about when properly prepared, this is it. If yours is bitter, you either use too much tea or you let it steep too long.
Oh, and I never use tea bags for black tea. It is filled with the tea dust that is breaking off from the properly dried tea leaves, the leftover after the leaves have been packaged. That tends to make for an overpoweringly strong tea, plus the dust tends to seep into the tea itself. Either that or (with luxury versions=filled with proper leaves) it does not have enough room for giving off its taste. Free floating is the way to go.
If you want to avoid the garbage getting all wet, just leave the used leaves to drip and dry in the sieve over the pot you used for steeping before throwing them away.
Disclaimer: this is the first time ever I bought this product. I have picked and paid it myself and have nothing whatsoever to do with either FGO, Amazon or Twinings. This is a pure tea enthusiast's review article and I hope you enjoyed it and your tea.

And he loooooves it!
In case it makes a difference to anyone, these do not have stringent pull the tea bags. They are disk only. Not an issue for us, but in case anyone else needs to know!
As for me, the main improvement I'd like to see is in the strength of both the leaves and bergamot where possible. It takes me about 50% more tea to produce a strength that compares to my usual go-to. It should actually be the opposite--organic ingredients should make for stronger tea than usual. Also the cut is a little on the aggressive side in my opinion, I think a coarser one would be an improvement.
I'm enjoying this tea so much. (I prefer it iced).
A few years back, Pure Leaf teas made a Hibiscus iced tea. It was my favorite, I had never had hibiscus tea before. For some reason they discontinued it, but now I can brew my own and enjoy it any time.
I can't quite place it. This isn't a grassy or a floral herbal tea, it's something else. It reminds me of either wet bread or toast, that sort of mildly yeasty characterm a little earthy too. Not unpleasant, actually nice to have some variety now and again, but also I don't think it is quite for me. If I order it again, it'll be in a few years. No secondary effects from what I could tell.

However, this checked off what i was looking for:
1) Green tea Sencha + Matcha powder from Japan (to avoid lead contamination eg. China)
2) Tea bags plant based/fiber, and non-plastic (to avoid drinking microplastics)
For a stronger flavor option, I really enjoyed YAMASAN UJI KYOTO Genmaicha green tea with brown rice, worth checking out.

In my experience with jasmine tea it’s supposed to be a bit light. With many pearls if it becomes too strong it can have a bitter taste.
I find these leaves to have a nice floral flavour, I only use 4-6 balls at a time which means the bag will last a VERY long time. Especially as I re-steep those same leaves all day. As the balls open up fully the tea becomes stronger for the second and third steep which is rare for a tea.
The leaves are also very pretty as they open :) the bag is also easy to seal tight and hasn’t broken after numerous openings and closings.
After writing this - I may just pour myself another cup!
