Research notes

Product URL contains both a romanized and a Japanese-adjacent slug fragment ('samidorimo-cha'), suggesting the page may have been renamed/merged from an older product listing (e.g., a previous 'Organic Samidori Matcha' listing found in search results) — could not confirm whether this page and the older 'organic-samidori-matcha-20g' listing found separately in search results are the same or different products.
