Why Mori is our first recommendation for most buyers
Mori is the first recommendation on this index because it matches the most common purchase intent: a UK shopper wants a good matcha powder they can buy online now, use at home, and enjoy without needing a complicated tasting flight. It is the best fit for readers who want one practical starting point for lattes and straight matcha before branching into more specialised comparisons.
That does not mean every buyer has the same ideal matcha.
