One of the worst matcha! Save your money and buy from a reputable tea house. I purchased the Asahi, $55 for 20grams, would you believe my surprise when I opened the tin to a familiar scent. It’s the indistinguishable scent and taste of the $13/20gram Waikiki blend from Ippodo. What a waste, bitter and astringent. A far cry from the beautiful round umami flavor it should be, you’re better off waiting for Tezumi to restock. Also I’m currently in the twin cities, it took 6 days to arrive. Ridiculous.

Kagoshima matcha is excellent

If I could give no stars I would. I ordered a gift set and ipods receiving it, the gift set was damaged. I reached out to the couple multiple times and even called their customer service line with no response back.

I love this matcha! The okumidori was the perfect one for me! the right amount of nutty flavor!

A beautiful velvety matcha! I appreciate that it is milled to order and it is good to support a local business.

Amazing matcha

So glad to have found River & Stone matcha. Having lived in Japan and knowing what fresh high quality matcha can be like I was so tired with all the matcha I could find stateside. Even the most expensive matcha from numerous online tea companies I tried just didn’t have that same clarity as the matcha I would drink in Japan. It was dull. And now I know why. It’s all about fresh milling. The fresher it’s milled the better it is. The crisp fresh flavors of the matcha I tried from River and Stone take me back to being in Kyoto drinking matcha at a temple and truly experiencing the full synergy of the tea. With top tier (ceremonial) matcha, quality and freshness go hand and hand, you can’t have one without the other and River and Stone has got them both. Thank you River and Stone, now I can enjoy matcha again just like I remembered when I was in living in Japan. The best!!

I really enjoy this matcha more than I ever expected. I feel like I stumbled upon a hidden gem. I think the packaging is the only thing holding this back from being a true dominant matcha. I will continue to buy!

Found the tea shop during one of my visits to Minneapolis in January 2024. Some of the best matcha I’ve ever had. I recommend them to every matcha lover I know.

So many matcha options! Simon helped me find which was right for me. They’re very knowledgeable. I also appreciate that they stone ground the tea themselves! Super satisfied.

Highly recommend! I look forward to having a matcha every morning, and River and Stone’s matcha makes for a great gift.

They really do take their matcha seriously! The prices are steep, but the flavor and freshness of their matcha are second to none in the USA. Their shipping is fast and free. This is some of the best matcha you can get in North America without importing it from Japan (and paying $25-30 for shipping in the process).
