Research notes

This is Pique's flagship/best-seller matcha, with by far the most detailed sourcing and review transparency of any product in this dataset (named teamaster, specific valley/region, quadruple toxin screening with COA). Note the page presents the price in at least three different framings (one-time, subscribe, 'risk-free trial'), and a separate tin-format SKU exists alongside the carton reviewed here -- both flagged below rather than collapsed into one number.
