From the customer service to the matcha color and taste, everything is wonderful. This matcha has such a mellow comforting flavor. I will definitely be repurchasing.

The matcha powder is QUALITY!

The matcha powder is delicious! Higher quality than a lot of other brands I’ve tried who market as “ceremonial”, I tried the Yame no Mukashi and that is now a staple in my daily morning matcha. Not too expensive either and tastes amazing whisked with oat milk! Can’t wait to try out more of the products. Also communications/shipping was very quick considering it’s international from the USA!

I tried the Kirishima matcha

I tried the Kirishima matcha, and I have to say it really surprised me. It’s super creamy, and the color is vivid and bright. I love it for my matcha lattes—I definitely feel confident recommending it. A very solid and interesting option!

I had the opportunity to try Wakokoro’s matcha, and overall, I’ve genuinely enjoyed the experience. What stood out to me right away was the quality and freshness—the matcha has a clean taste, smooth texture, and feels thoughtfully sourced.

I appreciate that they offer teas from different regions in Japan, which gives you a chance to explore a variety of flavor profiles depending on what you’re looking for. The matcha I tried whisked well, had a nice color, and felt balanced—something I can see myself reaching for daily.

Shipping can take a bit of time depending on where you’re located, but the quality of the product makes it worth the wait.

Overall: A reliable brand for authentic Japanese matcha with a good range of options, especially if you’re looking to explore and find what suits your personal taste.

Wakokoro’s matcha has been really easy to incorporate into my daily routine. I’ve tried two of their variants so far, and both work especially well for lattes. Smooth, well-balanced, and not overly bitter.

It blends nicely with my soymilk and still lets the matcha flavor come through without being too strong, which I appreciate for everyday drinking.

If you’re looking for a matcha you can enjoy regularly, especially as a latte, these are great options to start with.

Perfect

For me, this is a wonderful way to buy very good matcha directly from Japan. The selection is large and shipping is super fast! The customer service is also very friendly and answers to questions are immediate. I've ordered several times already and this won't be the last. Thank you!

I’m truly sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

We experienced an unexpected global surge in demand for matcha, which made it challenging to secure a steady supply. In order to provide accurate shipping information, we contacted the factory directly before responding — and I’m afraid that’s what caused the delay in communication.

I understand how frustrating it must have been not to receive timely updates, and I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We’re taking steps to improve our communication and supply management to ensure a smoother experience moving forward.

Thank you very much for your patience and understanding.

Warm regards,
Jin
