Research notes
Kyoto Dew treats 'Ceremonial Grade Matcha' as one continuous product line sold in three sizes/formats (tin and two bag sizes) rather than three distinct products, each with a near-identical but not verbatim-identical marketing description. Data was captured via live browser rendering since the site is JavaScript-heavy (Wix) and a simple fetch returned only truncated navigation content.
