Research notes
No shelf life, harvest timing, or awards disclosed. The much higher price, higher caffeine designation, and dramatically higher stated cup yield (43-48 cups vs 5-10 cups) for the same nominal 50g package size compared to sibling flavoured-matcha SKUs strongly suggests this is a more concentrated/pure ceremonial-style matcha powder used in much smaller per-cup doses -- but the page itself does not explain the discrepancy, so it is flagged below rather than assumed.
