Use case
Baking Matcha
Baking matcha is less about ceremonial softness and more about color retention, aroma, and enough bitterness to stay recognizable once sugar, butter, or dairy enter the recipe. The right baking matcha is usually a value product rather than a premium tiny tin. Buyers should pay for distinctiveness here, not for tea-ceremony prestige.
