Ceremonial and Culinary Grade Matcha: Everything You Need to Know – Jade Leaf Matcha

But first, a disclaimer: Much like wine, matcha is sold in a very wide range of quality levels (and a very wide range of price points to match). This quality is determined by where it is grown, how it is cultivated, when it is harvested, and how it is processed. Grade designation and pricing is entirely up to the brand
The main difference between Ceremonial and Culinary Grade matcha is the period (or season) tea leaves are harvested, which yields different characteristics. Here are some things to keep in mind when determining which grade is best for you.
