Did you know that you can find Matcha Tea at Aldi ?
The Aldi supermarket chain is riding the matcha tea wave with a bulk version, in 50gr format and suitable for all pockets.
We are going to analyze Aldi's matcha, we are going to see if it is of good quality and if it is worth the quality-price ratio.
Price and composition
Under your own brand Gutbio of ecological products you can find 50g of matcha tea for €3.89.
The matcha cup, calculating with 1.5g of matcha, you get 12 cents. The price is almost unbeatable and cheaper than what you can find anywhere. Mercadona but let's see its quality and if it's worth it.
Obviously with these prices you will not find anywhere near a ceremonial or premium matcha but it can be a good option to prepare a home made matcha latte, smoothies or some matcha cookies.

Aldi Matcha Tea Review
Aldi's matcha tea comes from Japan and is 100% organic as you can see on its label.
We have prepared several matcha lattes with it and the quality is quite fair. To take as a drink matcha latte we do not recommend it at all since quite a few bitter aftertastes appear. A good option is to use it for smoothies or for desserts where it is mixed with other ingredients.
If we compare it with Mercadona Matcha, Aldi Matcha Tea loses out. The quality is quite inferior, the green color is dull and the taste leaves much to be desired.
I hope we have helped you choose and clear up doubts if you were thinking of purchasing a matcha at a very good price.
