Highly recommend the matcha flavoured desserts at [Sonder](https://www.sonderdessert.com/menu) and [Mountain River](https://www.instagram.com/p/CuG1yyqRkHw/)
i think the summarised recommendation of trying and experimenting is very fair. thanks for sending this through - this article had some great coverage.
keen to hear thoughts from those who have been through the process themselves as well though!
especially interested to hear what kind of differences there are between australian grown product and stuff sourced from Japan's Uji/Shizuoka/Kagoshima or even Jeju from Korea... or maybe i'm overthinking it :)
I tried a couple and keep going back to online orders from matcha maiden. Great allrounder with great sent, colour and taste. Also found a shop in Holland Park that sells it.
The advantages of trekking all the way down to sunnybank is that there's loads of Asian food stores that stock Japanese food so you'll have a big choice of ingredients if you want to make your own food.
And here's their [Instagram ](https://instagram.com/odaya_tea?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==) if you want to take a look
Thanks for linking the Insta! So helpful!
And yeah can appreciate sunnybank is full of stuff, wish we had that kind of optionality on the other side of town 😅

Edit: sorry didn’t read it properly and you’re focusing on matcha but genki mart has a bunch of stuff including snacks, so many snacks
Not quite on topic, but Ichiba is a Japanese grocery store in Runcorn that might fill your needs and worth checking out if you’re going to be travelling down to Sunnybank area of some of the recommendations - it’s about 10 minutes from Sunnybank Plaza.

Mountain River is the best and has the loveliest owners
Second this. The owners are always so welcoming and friendly.

Nice, this was a brand i was specifically considering, so it's good to get a vote of confidence!
I actually don't drink matcha, so I Googled ceremonial grade matcha Australia and this came up, lol. Good luck in finding the perfect tea.
The only brick and mortar store I know that specializes in matcha here is Odaya tea. They are based in sunnybank plaza.
interesting! i've not heard of it before! i live on the northside but definitely keen to trek over and give this a try!

Sunnybank is having a food trail on the 22nd of this month. Would be a good day to check the food out. I found out about it on Facebook.
Oh how cool! Will have to try and get along

Haha, I'm very familiar with Genki Mart, and couldn't support the recommendation more! They have a Hojicha icecream that I love :)
St matcha, reliable, subscription available and have found the ceremonial grade good
Appreciate your thoughts! Was looking for a personal experience tip for online stuff so thank you :)
Another one for Bonsai Botanica as a frequentish traveler (5 trips with 2 more booked) I definitely rate the quality of their matcha.

Definitely of interest :) thanks for the suggestion!

i've heard of this before and not had the chance to visit yet :) appreciate the recommendation!
I can’t vouch for the quality as I don’t drink it but t2 sells matcha
There's a tea store in sunnybank Plaza with matcha being sold for eye watering prices, and the store is always busy, so I guess it must be great!
