Quality matcha can be great, but calling it "so much better" than other tea?

Come back when you've had a high quality Wuyi oolong.

Matcha tea causes irreversible damage to the brain stem.

that's how I know you tasted the cheapest utter trash.

Overrated garbage that tastes like fish.
>B-but anon, I bet you haven't tried GOOD macha! It has to be grown in the shadows of a mountain temple and picked one hour after sunrise and hand-dried by100 year old monks, my matcha provider Shuromo Kinyama-sama told me so, he's my greatest ally!
Even Japanese only drink it ironically and laugh at weebs like you who think it's actually good.
