If you dont sieve it though you end up with lots of little bits that dont dissolve well

But i just can’t tell the difference between the two and i honestly prefer the culinary grade the flavor seems more consistent

Been purchasing for over 3 years and the product seems to be the same quality each time

If you are a matcha to drink as a standalone tea then you should be looking for something other than a culinary grade product
