hojicha recos thats not toasty?

help me out please!! i really want to add hojicha into my rotation bc I consume too much matcha due to work stress 🫩

i love how hojicha tastes like but there’s something talaga na medyo nakaka-off for me. yung lingering after taste ng pagka toast/roast ng hojicha (i think)

tbh im not very sure! but I felt the same way with genmaicha—masarap but may weird lingering after taste talaga na di ko masyadong bet.

i know hojicha is roasted haha but im just wondering if may powders ba na less toasty? or may technique ba to lessen it? i like it dark roast din kasi 😅 sorry ang gulo but I wanna make it work

i have MK Type B, it’s good and less toasty pag cold whisked. i tried JMPH dark roast & spare key (nokori) na choco hojicha, oks naman but looking for more suggestions sana

kumatcha temp sensitive?

I know many of you love kumatcha here so I wanna hear your thoughts. Is it just me or sensitive to water temperature ang kumatcha powders?

I feel like I’m unable to extract the notes properly bc of the temp? Too hot = bitter af, cold/warm = mild notes

I can definitely taste the notes but they all just seem… too muted? Huhu help please, I love their catalogue but I can’t make it work 😭

SFG HATSU + FREE ADOLEAF 4A

P780 + sf

🍃 hatsu ~26g (bbd june 2027) — got this for 1k
🍃 adoleaf ~5.5g (bbd may 2027) — FREE!

I find them very similar! Hatsu is like the bolder/more umami version of adoleaf 4A

🍵 hatsu notes: umami-forward, vegetal, very low bitterness, creamy

rfs: i prefer my matcha bitter!

Chinese Matcha Trinity

finally tried 3/3 of the most popular & affordable chinese matchas! overall, I find chinese matchas to work best with lower ratios since they easily disappear with milk

review in order of my preference:

Moli Matcha (review)
🍵bold, strong umami, a bit nutty, smooth, strong bitterness

- can be tricky with the ratios cos it can either get too bold or bland
- sometimes overwhelming yung umaminess nya haha
- would def repurchase, sana magka refill packs
- hot take: this is like a chinese version of YK powders lol

QingXi 2026 Premium
🍵 creamy, vegetal, mild bitterness

- my first ever powder in my matcha journey! repurchased 4x already
- tried other variants also (they’re all too bitter)
- most balanced of the 3, perfect for everyday
- reminds me of Wakatake
- will try the variant in Lazada soon!

Adoleaf 4A
🍵 grassy, almost no bitterness, mild astringency, has very faint umami

- this is like a mix of Davon Tenzo + Ito En
- matcha taste is too light and flat for me :( need to lower the ratio
- not bad but not outstanding
- wont repurchase, but will try 5A

sweet & chocolatey matcha recos

hi! I’ve been exploring different flavor profiles the past few months—nutty, umami, vegetal, grassy but i realized I haven’t tried sweet and/or chocolatey matcha!

sometimes “nakakaumay” sa feeling na puro umami yung iniinom ko so want to explore on other profiles naman :)

tyia!

moli matcha worth the hype!!!

GENUINELY SO SURPRISED cant believe this is less than 500??? 😭😭💚 lowkey think this is better than some jpn powders i have 🫣

i can confirm tama ang reviews—umami forward, bold, and nutty.

ratio: 5g powder, 50ml water, 100ml oatside, 2 drops stevia drops

dethroned na ang qingxi as my fav affordable matcha lol try nyo na rin guys! also skl first time ko mag whisk using chasen i think it looks good hihi

edit: got it here! highly reco buying from shopee para may voucher. i bought mine for 380 pesos only 🩶 out of stock nga lang rn huhu

Matcha for friends

What powder do you use when you make matcha for your (non-matcha drinker) friends/visitors? My friends have been requesting me to make matcha for them and idk what powder to use lol

With the powders that I have rn I think the safest choice is Wakatake, but wanna get more suggestions!
