Good Deal On Great Quality Bulk Matcha
I was initially searching for any deals on green tea powder (matcha) in bulk, and was presented with the Organic Matcha 2 lb product (Organic Matcha) from DEAL SUPPLEMENT. So far, I can say that I'm very satisified with the Organic Matcha I received (Matcha), and am glad I made the purchase. There are many aspects of the Matcha I liked that I will cover in this review in order of most liked: 1) price; 2) amount; 3) matcha quality; and 4) packaging quality. 1) After doing price comparisons across the top bulk matcha, as well as a limited number of bulk matcha deals, all on Amazon, I determined as best I could the Matcha's price was the most affordable given the succeeding three previously mentioned aspects. I began my price comparisons among the bulk matcha as previously indicated starting with searching for only bulk matcha sized 2 lbs or less. From there, I next limited my search to just culinary grade matcha as this grade I observed generally tended to be less expensive than ceremonial grade matcha. From there, I further limited my search to include only culinary grade matcha sized 2 lbs or less priced around $25 +/- $1 USD or less. From there, I eventually determined that the Matcha's price was the best, and this aspect is what I liked most. 2) Given my price comparisons as mentioned above, I thought that in terms of price of matcha amount per pound, the Matcha was the best in this regard. Yet, I was unsure about wanting 2 lbs of the Matcha for a few or so reasons: I doubted how long the Matcha would last before expiring; I didn't know if I could tolerate the caffeine in the Matcha since I wanted to drink green tea prepared from the Matcha for its health-promoting properties which from what I understand meant drinking several cups of green tea daily; and what about any side effects of matcha not based on caffeine while drinking this much green tea daily? Fortunately, I was aware of a study (Shim et al., 2012) that reached the conclusion that green tea (but not the caffeine in it) can be basically turbocharged when green tea is prepared with xylitol (a sugar substitute) and vitamin C in particular that were found to boost certain nutrients (i.e., anti-oxidants) within green tea which potentially means drinking less green tea but getting the same health benefits as the equivalent amount of green tea without the aforementioned nutrient boosters. There are more of these nutrient boosters too (Green et al., 2007). So, knowing about these nutrient boosters, I determined that the amount of Matcha was great, which I liked, as it would allow for somewhat rough experimentation for quite some time that could potentially address doubts that I had about the Matcha, which leads into the next aspect that I liked. 3) I had read existing reviews for the Matcha, and had doubt about its content quality as stated above. However, my doubt was proven groundless when after I had a first cup of green tea prepared from just the Matcha and with nothing else added to it. My initial impression was that, for lack of a better description, the green tea prepared from the Matcha tasted fine in that I detected no irregularities in it. Furthermore, and as far as I can determine just from drinking the prepared green tea daily, I've had only neutral to positive experiences. For example, unlike with coffee, I've not gotten jittery from drinking green tea prepared from the Matcha. Also, the Matcha mixes quite well and tastes fine with a lemonade powder packet abundant in vitamin C that is available on Amazon. But at this point, if I were to really be expecting a remarkably positive impact on my health from drinking green tea prepared from the Matcha, it would be protection against metabolic syndrome, which I'm fairly certain there is at least more than one study about. So, based on my experiences so far, I've liked the content quality of the Matcha, which I think in total has been great. As far as my experimentation goes, I moved forward with it and results so far have not indicated any noticeable profound positive improvements in my health. 4) Other than thinking for some reason it would be better for matcha to be in a container similar to how instant coffee is usually in a jar or cannister from my experience, I initially hadn't given much thought about the packaging until after having received the Matcha. But I've liked the packaging, and I state that because I think if not, it would reflect in the matcha quality with which I've been very satisified. Particularly, I observed that the Matcha's container is sturdy, has a screw-on lid that goes on tightly, comes with a safety seal, comes with a scoop utensil so that the matcha can be scooped from the container, and all-in-all has an agreeable appearance while keeping the matcha stored securely. That's my review. Read more
