ISO Matcha Green tea and Sencha Green tea

[garfield]

Looking for good quality Matcha Green tea and Sencha Green tea.
I picked up Match green tea from teavana but at 35 bucks for 80 grams its too costly.In any case would like to know the options regardless of price range.

Sanko on Queen had Matcha in a small tin for $10-15, and Sencha.

the Matcha was really good. (should call first to see if they still carry it)

Ozawa in Richmond Hill has very good quality match and sencha. You pay for the quality though. They supply Japanese food to restaurants in the GTA, and are only open to the public M-F 1:30pm - 5:00pm.

Not sure if this place at the JCCC is still afloat:

Try Costco Kirkland brand Green Tea. It's produced by Ito-En and good quality. The tea is composed of Sencha leaves mixed with ground Matcha. There are 100 bags per box, and cost about $15/box.

The cheaper stuff isn't any good. Try DoMatcha at the health food stores, that's the good stuff. Around $25 for the 30g ceremonial grade, but considering that lasts you two months (sixty servings), it's not all that pricey.

Heisei in J-town sells it quite cheap... but it's the boxed kind, but imported from Japan... about $2+ for a box of 12 or so?

Heisei Mart in J-Town? Sencha shouldn't be that hard to find. Sanko on QueenW would be worth a visit.

Thanks , Kagemusha and jennjen18, I will check it out.

They keep the matcha behind the counter at sanko, so you have to ask for it.
