I wasn’t sure I’d stick with matcha over coffee, but this one changed my mind. There’s a smoothness to the flavour that makes it easy to enjoy daily, and it’s now a proper fixture in my morning routine rather than an occasional treat.
It’s worth every penny too — genuinely great value compared to what I was buying out and about, with far superior taste and quality. I wouldn’t consider switching to a cheaper brand.
This spoon is well-made stainless steel and measures out just the right amount of matcha each time. As a handy tip, I’ve added a small magnet to the bottom of mine so it attaches straight to my metal utensil holder, rather than digging through the drawer to find it. Small addition, but makes it even easier to use daily. Recommended.
This whisk is genuinely great quality and does exactly what a good matcha whisk should – it smooths out any clumps and creates a lovely, even froth every time. Makes for a much better cup of matcha. Recommended.
The Shubui matcha tin has quickly become part of my daily tea routine. It’s ideal for decanting loose tea into, and it fits neatly in the fridge, which keeps my matcha cool and tasting fresh for longer. The built-in sieve and paddle are a brilliant touch – everything I need is in one compact, tidy container rather than scattered across separate tools. Well designed and genuinely useful. Recommended.
I hadn’t come across tea bags you filled yourself before. Such a good idea. I stay overnight regularly with friends and family and I usually take my tea with me as Shibui has transformed my tea drinking and I do not want to drink any other teas. These bags are easy to fill and save me storing loose tea and tea bags plus I can control how much tea I put in them. I definitely recommend them.
I am really enjoying this tea. This is the first time I have purchased a Japanese tea and it is delicate in flavour and very enjoyable to drink.
I found these herbal tea's to be pretty naff, when brewing you can smell some sort of chemical reaction vapour which is unpleasant I am not sure why. The chocolate ginger tea in particular tastes like a mix of toothpaste and mouthwash, not pleasant at all.
