my May matcha review! 🍵

happy matcha mondays ep. 29 💚 all of this month’s matcha powders were very good! it was hard to rank them, but don’t let my ranking completely sway your opinion. this is just based on my personal preferences. not everyone is the same & i encourage you to do your own research as well! try whatever sounds good to you or is most accessible to you. please also just purchase as much as you need so that others can enjoy matcha as well during this shortage 🫶🏼
