Ive been finding out after I buy some Matcha tea has other ingredients in it. Is this 100% or does other ingredients like brown rice flour, etc.

To my knowledge, its 100%. Its the only brand that my friends and I find doesnt have a funny taste... some of the others taste like theres dirt in it... this doesnt.

the package does not list other ingredients, saying only that it contains organically grown and handpicked matcha green tea. I have had trouble drinking it, the taste is a bit strange compared to other matcha teas I have had, but they were flavored with other ingredients. I just assumed I was making my tea too strong, but have not yet tried it with less powder b/c the tea upset my stomach. I don't know if it is the product or my ignorance of the proper way to use the product.

Angelica,My package of Tradition Pure Green Tea Powder lists "Ingredient: Tea Leaves." My understanding is that Matcha tea is Japanese and is powdered Japanese Gyokuro Imperial tea leaves (which I have as leaf tea as well). I have compared the Matcha tea from Teavana (now a subsidiary of Starbucks) with other green tea powders from Taiwan and Korea. All are satisfactory, but the imperial Matcha (ceremonial green tea) from Teavana is the smoothest and most elegant in flavor. I also get regular whole leaf Sencha green tea at my Teavana supplier and it is the Sencha not grown in the shade. Wikipedia has an extensive article on the varieties of Sencha.I hope this helps!

I have tried making mochi with both this brand and an Asian glutinous flour and the Asian flour worked much better. This Bob's Red Mill sweet rice flour did not yield the same gluey texture needed to make mochi. It was also very gritty. I wouldn't recommend it for this purpose.

Yes. Ingredients, from package: "Enzymatically processed rice protein from certified organic, whole grain, sprouted brown rice".I don't know why the information on Amazon doesn't mention it's brown rice - probably an oversight (or intentional omissions due to thinking that consumers wouldn't be interested) from whoever manages the sales process.

I bellieve the list includes 100% matcha tea and is blended with Xylitol for sweetner. I must admit that I generally don't mind the taste of xylitol, in this case it alters the taste of the match tea in a negative way.

The ingredients are just brown rice and water and don't indicate any allergen alerts to dairy or egg so I think you are good to go. I would call the manufacturer to be sure.

http://www.green-tea-guide.com/pesticides-in-green-tea.html ....read this article, it'll open your eyes as to how fraught with pesticides and lead Chinese matcha is compared to Japanese matcha... even the organic label doesn't make much of a difference... I've drank Davidson's matcha for quite some time but at this point I'd rather be safe than sorry

Our organic Matcha is made of 100% pure powdered green tea. No fillers, no by-products or additives whatsoever. Our recommendation per serving is 1/2 to 1 teaspoon. But for others, 1/4 tsp does the trick, especially when they want little, to no taste of Matcha in their food or smoothie.What other details do you need? Let us know and we'll try to get back to you with as much answers as we can provide.Warmest regards, Ashley Evans KissMeOrganics

I bought this matcha to add to my smoothies after learning about its antioxidant properties. I suppose you could make tea with it but I think it would be simple just to get green tea bags for tea as I have.

The other ingredients are rice flour and cellulose (capsule). It says it contains NO sugar, salt, yeast, wheat, gluten, corn, soy, milk, egg, shellfish, or preservatives.

I don't know how to answer that Faye. You are correct and the description does say it contains gluten. I would think that particular comment is wrong. I am looking at the bag and it states it contains 100% rice. The nutritional facts state nothing about containing gluten.

No. The only other ingredients listed are: Rice flour, Cellulose (capsule) and Ascorbyl palmitate - whatever that is!

The ingredients list only the flours, which are also listed on the Amazon site. Nothing else is included. It makes very good bread, especially when combined with millet flour and potato starch, and perhaps a little sticky rice flour.

Its 100% organic matcha powder. It doesn't specifiy the actual amt per serving but ingredient says 100% so I'm assuming 100% in each serving. Hope this helps.

It is from both "brown and white rice flour" per the box ingredients. Hope that info helps.
