Matcha Tips - learning how to be better at making it

Hi , i recently started attempting to make my own matcha and i notice i just like..do not taste the flavor at all lol, sometimes it just feels like im drinking milk.

Like i said, i am new so i have recgonized stuff i do wrong and try to fix it but still am curious if theres any other issues:

  1. First, the brand i have is one i got from a local supermarket , nothing expensive or "ceremonial grade" as some people promote at all. I dont know if that affects it.

  2. I also have purchased a bamboo whisk , and i have tried to adjust the way i whisk and water to matcha ratio i use -- however i still feel like im still not getting that creamy texture i see others get.

  3. i know the water cannot be too hot or else it causes the matcha to have a bitter taste - however my issue is not that its bitter, its that i barely taste it lol

  4. i use the correct measurements listed on the box , 1 tablespoon of matcha per 8 oz of milk. The milk i use is a creamy oat milk so i dont know if the milk being extra creamy lessens the flavor of the powder? i know too much powder isnt good either though.

Any advice? thanks in advance? <3

Is there a way to know when certain themes will be sold in the curio shop?

I have been looking for certain items in the Persian, Aztec and Egyptian theme, and i was just curious if the curio shop is completely random, or if you may know ahead of time what day/time certain items will be sold.
