Makes great tea and baked goods!
I try not to buy Japanese product after the Fukushima nuclear disaster. Also, any food products from China, I just do not trust. So my next best bet is Korean products. I previously bought different brand of Korean matcha powder, but this is one of the best matcha tea ever that's from Korea. I make straight matcha tea, and also use this to make green tea muffins, cookies, pound cakes. Love it!

It's okay
I liked that SunDaWon matcha powder dissolves easily in hot water. I prepare my matcha tea with hot almond milk mixed with the wisked matcha powder in hot water. The problem that I did have was that it took twice as much matcha to get the buzz I had been getting with the Japanese matcha. So, it didn't turn out to be such a good value.

Flavorful but NOT-so-green match green tea
The product I received was within the "use by" date and is very flavorful, however it is not as "Green" other products that I've used in the past. In fact it has a slight greenish-brown color to it. Regardless, the flavor is on point and never bitter. The subtle aromatics are great! I would buy this product again and would recommend to anyone if all you're looking to do is drink some matcha and if you do not mind the off-color of the product. If the color of the product is essential for you or you're doing this for ceremonial purposes, I would NOT recommend this product and actually dissuade you from it.
