“Matcha (got the Ren) were the best I’ve had in Malaysia thus far. Indeed, the matcha was vibrantly green and jam packed with umami, both signs of the best quality matcha.”

“I drink KIKU almost everyday, there are times I did skipped, but somehow I feel empty when I did so. haha. So, now it’s my everyday essential. It helps me with my weight loss plan as well. My weight before was 66.4kg, and now 64.9kg in a few weeks time!”

"I felt dizzy for the 1st few days but it gets better by days. The very 1st thing i notice is i had very good sleep!! Like really good!! Because i did suffer insomnia back then - due to backache so i kept waking up during the night & having trouble to get back to sleep. But i rarely had it since i took kiku.
I can’t deny that it really helps to boost my energy. Plus, it helps me to manage my weight i guess i’ve lost 4kg since December 2018.
I took kiku every morning:
1. mixed it with honey & lemon; served warm; or
2. overnite matcha chiapudding; or
3. matcha smoothies"

"I felt that I've benefited greatly from KIKU matcha after drinking it daily for about 6 months before practicing yoga in the morning. I noticed I'm more alert my with surroundings and it has helped me a lot for my concentration with work during late nights when I need to stay awake. As I'm not a fan of coffee, this is a really good caffeine alternative."

“Love the ajisai latte! It’s naturally sweet and fragrant soy notes with the umami from green tea and creaminess of the milk makes it perfect!"
★★★★★

“Their Ajisai matcha has to be one of my favourites due to its complex and bold umami, soy-like & bitterness flavours that covers your pallet."

Serina Bajaj
Kind Kones Ice Cream Cafe
“We tried a few other matcha brands, but none of them worked with our recipe as good as YURI Matcha. Their finely milled green tea powder blends in so beautifully into our nut milk based ice cream. The green tea taste is subtle and complements the coconut very well. It’s no wonder the Niko Neko matcha coconut flavour has become one of our best sellers.”
★★★★★
Joy St. Gelato Cafe
Bangsar (Ice Cream Shop)
“We’ve made many gelato variations with YURI matcha powder and it all tastes spectacular! The YURI matcha blends well with our recipe to produce a delicious gelato that is both rich in flavour and colour. One of our recent inventions – Matcha Passion Fruit – had our customers blown away! Niko Neko Matcha really doesn’t compromise on quality and I can guarantee that.”

“I like using YURI Matcha because of the quality and the service. I find that matcha is sensitive in its quality so if I use a poor grade matcha powder I will have difficulties in making my creations taste great, look great and it affects the texture and shelf life.”

“Bought Niko Neko's YURI matcha powder from village grocer, very strong umami and smooth texture! Delicious!”

“It is unique subtle yet flavourful.
Adding the powder does not alter the texture of my cake and because the flavour is intense, you do not need a lot of it to bring out the flavour in my cake.”
