Related Product Note
A separate everyday matcha called 'TSUJIRI Tsuji Midori Matcha Powder' (30g, sold on Amazon under the TSUJIRI brand name rather than Gion Tsujiri) also uses the word 'Midori' but is described as a different, non-ceremonial 'everyday ceremonial grade' product - noted here to avoid confusion but not conflated with Gion Tsujiri's Midori no Shiro

Research notes

Cultivar, certifications, brewing instructions with specific measurements, ingredients list, awards, shelf life, and reviews were not disclosed on this page. Also found a similarly-named 'Matcha Midori no Shiro from Tsujiri 40g' listing on j-j-market.com/wakokoro-tea.com but did not separately fetch it since ujichamatcha.com's page was comprehensive and consistent with the general Gion Tsujiri 'no Shiro' line description pattern.
