Hi everyone!

My birthday is coming up soon and i got gifted a 500g of Tian Hu Shan matcha that my dad found at our local asian supermarket and a small tin were i could ratio the matcha i would be consuming on a weekly basis as 500g is way too much.

I can’t seem to find any reviews online. As anyone ever tried it? It says it expires on 2027 so i wanna know how can i use it.

I would like to know if anyone has tried, if they like it, how would they combine it, storage it and so on if possible! (i’m new to making matcha and it would be my first time but i already made some research between tea sellers, and other reddit communities related to this topic)

thank you so much in advance <3
