"Which matcha grade is best for Thanksgiving recipes?"

We recommend using our Culinary Grade Matcha for all of your baking and culinary needs, however, it is entirely up to your personal preference which grade of matcha you use for your own enjoyment (plenty of folks use culinary matcha for tea, while others won’t even bake cookies with anything less than ceremonial). Our grade designations are simply guidelines for what we think works best for each use case. Feel free to explore our Pure Matcha offerings to learn which grade is best for you!
