Found this at Sunrise Mart 7.15$, but aside from an english label that says "Yamashiro Uji Matcha" and something like Deiji distribution, i cant make out anything else - like dates or website or something. I asked the lady at the checkout if she can see a date or something but she didnt...
So i dont know if this is food matcha or what... the box is kinda cute to be some food matcha so i hope not

Can anyone translate japanese ?

It says "Harvest Year - 1987".

I can't read everything but there doesn't seem to be much information. The sticker on the lid has an Osaka address and phone number. The label does say 40g of matcha, produced domestically.
