Research notes
Certification acronym on this page reads 'USDA & KOA Organic', which differs from the 'USDA & JONA Organic' phrasing used on every other Matcha Moon product page in this batch (Pure Zen, Spring Zen, Wakoucha, Hojicha). This could be a genuine different certifying body for this specific product (Kagoshima-sourced vs. Uji-sourced) or a typo on the page ('KOA' vs 'JONA'); reported exactly as displayed rather than corrected.
