Research notes

Two distinct search-tool passes returned different exact prices/promo framing ($41.99 flat vs. $39.99 sale from $44.99); it's unclear whether this reflects a promotional price change over time or a mismatch between this sampler and a related 'Matcha Starter Kit Collection' variant that includes a ceramic bowl/whisk/scoop referenced in the Yame product research.
