Decaf Matcha Green Tea Powder From Japan – Small Premium Bag - 1.06 oz / 30 g – Ceremonial Grade – Naturally Decaffeinated Without Chemicals – Tested for Heavy Metals

This green tea tastes great and is not overpowering . Love the fact that it’s decaffeinated too!

Disappointing.

I honestly didn’t expect to like a decaf matcha this much, but this one surprised me. I’ve tried regular matcha before and I love the taste, but the caffeine can hit me way too hard, especially later in the day. That’s the main reason I wanted to try the Caff Off decaf matcha, and it actually solved that problem for me. What stood out first is that it still tastes like real matcha. It has that smooth, slightly earthy, umami flavor, and it doesn’t taste watered down or weird like I expected from something decaf. The texture is also really nice and creamy when you mix it, even when I just used a fork instead of a whisk. I also really like how it’s made. They use a water absorption process to remove the caffeine instead of chemicals, which makes me feel a lot better about drinking it regularly. And it still has things like L theanine and antioxidants, so it feels like I’m actually getting the benefits of matcha, just without the jittery feeling. The biggest win for me is that I can drink it at night. That’s something I could never do with regular matcha. This only has around 4 to 8 mg of caffeine, so it doesn’t mess with my sleep, but I still get that calm, focused feeling. If I had to be honest, if you’re someone who drinks matcha specifically for a strong caffeine boost, this probably isn’t going to replace that. But if you love matcha for the taste, the routine, or the calming effect and especially if you’re sensitive to caffeine, this is actually such a good option. Overall, I would keep using this. It feels like a really easy swap that lets me enjoy matcha whenever I want, not just in the morning.

It’s ok for a decaf one, but I don’t think I’ll purchase it again, especially considering the price. The color is on the grey side comparing to my regular matcha which gives a poor quality/ old product vibe to me (I could be wrong). I find the texture to be a bit floury, even when I use my matcha whisk. Finally, I’m glad I had my ancient jar so I could transfer the product in a more convenient container.

This is really tasty matcha tea. I was worried that it would not be very tasteful as it is caffeine free, but that is not the case. It is a little pricey, but still delicious. It makes a very smooth cup of hot Matcha tea latte.
