- Product Name On Page
- [T-TRADITION] Japanese Matcha Powder (200g/Bag)
- Brand
- T-TRADITION / Tradition (Good Young Co., Ltd. retail brand)
- Important Naming Caveat
- The manufacturer's own product page does NOT use the word 'Ceremonial' in the product name itself — it is titled simply 'Japanese Matcha Powder.' However, this product is filed under Good Young's 'Tradition > Japanese Matcha Powder' category, whose category-level marketing copy explicitly describes the range as spanning 'from exquisite ceremonial grade matcha... to high-quality matcha powder bulk supplies,' and a related SKU in the same family ('TRADITION | Whole Leaf Ground-Shizuoka Matcha Powder (Ichiban-Sho), 100g') is explicitly labeled ceremonial/first-spring-harvest grade elsewhere on the site. This is the closest identifiable match to 'Japanese Ceremonial Matcha Powder' but the grade labeling is ambiguous/inconsistent across pages — see contradiction note.

Research notes
This page is a Taiwanese B2B/wholesale supplier page (Good Young Co., Ltd., manufacturer of the 'Tradition' retail brand), not a direct-to-consumer storefront, so it reads more like a spec sheet/catalog listing than a retail product page — no consumer price or add-to-cart flow. Retail versions of this exact SKU appear to be primarily sold through Amazon/Target/etc. under the Tradition brand name, but a matching 'Japanese Ceremonial Matcha Powder' consumer listing at retail (as opposed to this manufacturer catalog page) could not be independently located during this research.
