Up for May: Yuuki Midori organic matcha.

Just so I can keep track, we have so far...

It's a now-trusted source for organic Japanese tea. I've had a few less expensive matcha varieties from this vendor and have been satisfied enough to want to try more.

I'm down for either. I haven't had a lot of matcha so I really would enjoy trying some "good stuff."

Happy with either! Please sign me up!

I have virtually no experience of white teas ... or any matcha-s apart from Marukyu-Koyamaen's.

OK, one more quick addition. I know someone-as-yet-unnamed sent samples of yuuki-cha Yame matcha earlier this year to a bunch of people.

Since I scored 40g on eBay last night, if some of you who are going to be in on the tasting (still room left for that, btw, as I ordered 100g) haven't had Yame, let me know. It's unlike the Uji stuff I've had and worth a taste.

Thank you! That is most generous.

I've never had Yame, only Uji ... so if you can spare a little, yes, I'd love to see what it's like.
