Buying Matcha Online?

[Cabot]

I live in a weird little country. It's in Europe, but it feels like it's in Africa. I found matcha tea once and can't find it ever since. 

Luckily we do have access to www.ebay.co.uk and www.aliexpress.com 

Anyone ordered matcha and/or other "superfoods" from one of these services?

I buy my Matcha green tea at a local health-food store. It's made by Green Foods, organic, 1774 ORAC, 11 oz (312 g) can for about $30. Just checked Amazon.com and they also carry a variety of different brands of it. Haven't been a huge ebay shopper, but will check out the links above/ customer reviews on the quality and purchase satisfaction. Thanks.

It appears to be available for the same price on ebay, shipping is only 2$ as well.

It arrived today, I'm very satisfied with quality as well as the amount!

fyi- with services like www.myus.com you can get yourself a US address, have things shipped there, and they will forward it anywhere in the world. I used it while travelling across Europe and Asia, works very well .

I am a rooibos tea drinker and like to drink tea in the evening to relax.

Sadly there is no decaf matcha to be found. But I have found roibos matcha from bluebridteaco and on minvita.co.uk.

How does regular matcha compare in taste to green tea? I already don't really like green tea to begin with. I imagine the taste is just even stronger?

Do you drink this as if it was tea or is it different to tea?

I bought matcha online and is it just me or does it taste like grass?

There was no way I could finish the cup. Can you explain the benefits you got? I dont think I got any

u got Placebo effect?

I've read that consumption of Matcha must be dosed - it has a lot of caffeine. So what is better - simple green tea or fashionable Matcha?
