The Matcha Tasting

Matcha Tasting with Hillel Lowinsky

You've had matcha lattes. Maybe you've whisked some at home. But have you ever tasted matcha properly—side by side, grade by grade, from everyday culinary to competition-level ceremonial?

Most people think they don't like matcha. What they don't like is bitter, chalky powder. This tasting will change that.
