I was given a bag of Kirkland Green Tea from Costco and I was shocked to find it was actual matcha. Not good matcha; it's not aromatic like the higher grade stuff, but it definitely has that characteristic flavour. It's nothing wonderful but it's entirely drinkable which is a lot more than I was expecting.

How much is in the bag? How are you going to store it so it?ll stay drinkable?

These things are actually teabags, with a coarsely ground matcha in them, as well as with powder outside the bag in the same envelope. The notion is that you're supposed to put the teabag into the tea to steep and then add the powder from the same package. It works better than I'd ever have expected.

I think I’ve encountered these in a Japanese restaurant once or twice. But please try to seal them as best you can, and maybe refrigerate them in small batches to avoid condensation.
