Research notes
Product page is a single-SKU retail page (30g tin), which appears to be the default/base 'Ceremonial Matcha' listing distinct from the separately-listed 100g bag SKU. Certification logos are shown as images; the fetch tool could not confirm exact certification text from the rendered page, only inferred from logo appearance.

"rating_or_verdict": "No aggregate score published; 2 individual reviews",
"notes": "One reviewer preferred overbrewing (3 min vs. suggested 90 sec) for a 'bracing, umami' flavor; another described 'rich, nutty, almost grainy/oatmeal-like aroma' with some astringency, noting Aiya's premium sencha offered better value despite higher price. Note: this is a matcha-infused sencha blend, not pure matcha."
