Research notes
Primary facts pulled from the individual US product page (organic-grand-cru-matcha-us), which yields the fullest set of disclosed facts (price, grade claims, certifications, brewing, caffeine, reviews). The plain '/products/organic-grand-cru-matcha' and '/products/organic-grand-cru-matcha-bag-150-g' URLs both redirected to or resolved as the general 'Matcha & Powders' collection page rather than a single-product page during this research, so bag/tin-specific details (weight, exact per-format pricing) could not be independently confirmed beyond the price list scraped from that collection grid.
