Good overall but bamboo whisk weak
I love this set it's so affordable but the bamboo whisk is so brittle. It breaks so easily but I like it so far.

High-Quality Matcha Set
This 7-piece Matcha Whisk Set is beautifully made and feels like a true traditional tea kit. The ceramic chawan bowl has a nice weight to it and makes the whole process feel special. The bamboo whisk and scoop are sturdy and work exactly as they should for creating smooth, frothy matcha. I liked that everything comes together as a complete set, so you don’t have to buy anything separately. It’s great for beginners or anyone who wants an authentic matcha routine at home. A wonderful set that makes preparing matcha easy and enjoyable.

Great matcha for the price!
Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 2.1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
So delicious and has the perfect green color! The flavor is very mild and not bitter at all. Can definitely feel a buzz from the caffeine, but it’s very nice and subtle. Didn’t realize how small the can would be, and the can did come quite dented, but it’s still useable.
