The Kale: Premium Japanese Kale Powder for Daily Nutrition

The finely milled powder mixes cleanly into water with barely any grittiness. The kale odor is noticeably milder than other brands I've used. Because drinking it isn't a chore, it's simple to maintain as a daily habit.

Mellow and slightly earthy — easy to sip on. The shaker is compact and sized for a single sachet which helps keep the concentration consistent. A great way to fill the vegetable gap when meals lean heavy on starch and protein.

Soft and mellow whether mixed with water or milk. The included shaker is a thoughtful addition. A reliable daily green drink I look forward to.

The individual portions and bundled shaker remove all the guesswork about how much to use. You can always see how many sachets are left at a glance. I was honestly nervous about my first green drink, but with chilled milk it was far better than I imagined. Looking forward to trying it with honey and other mix-ins.

Every order includes a shaker bottle but I've got a whole collection by now. It seems wasteful. That said, the kale powder itself is top-notch.

When you mix it with milk instead of water the aroma intensifies quite a bit. If the packaging suggests milk as a mixer, perhaps the formulation could be tweaked to account for that.

I've been on kale green juice for a full decade and I'm committed to kale — not barley grass. This is a deep, intense green juice. No sweeteners, just the honest taste of kale. The individual sticks keep things sanitary and travel-friendly.

I appreciate that the ingredient list is just kale and nothing else. Each sachet is quite large so I stir half into my morning smoothie and save the rest with a clip. Much better deal than the smaller packets.

Before I had a shaker I always ended up with clumps at the bottom. The included one has measurement lines printed on it and the pre-portioned sachets mean every glass turns out uniform. Slightly powdery mouthfeel but overall very easy to consume.

Dusted some onto cottage cheese first — totally fine, zero bitterness. Then dissolved it in water — equally smooth. Tastes like chilled matcha. This is genuinely something I can maintain long-term.

Shook it up with unsweetened almond milk and it tasted naturally sweet — hard to believe it's just kale. Perfect for those mornings when eating isn't an option yet. Also goes well mixed into unflavored whey protein.

Blends into water smoothly and has a mild enough taste that drinking it daily feels effortless.

A brand I trust so I feel comfortable making it part of my daily routine. The included shaker simplifies preparation. There's a mild leafy taste but nothing that would put you off.

There's a detectable kale flavor in plain water, but it mellows right out in oat milk or rice milk. No lumps at all when using the shaker. Would like to keep this up.

Pure kale in convenient single-serve sticks — 30 in a box. The shaker that comes with it has volume lines marked and seals tightly. The powder is ultra-fine and disappears into water almost instantly. The flavor is lightly vegetal with a subtle matcha-like undertone. Not gourmet, but perfectly drinkable as a daily habit. I actually prefer it blended with milk. The shaker is a welcome extra.

Nice taste and generous amount in each box. I wish it were slightly more affordable, but I'm planning to reorder regardless.

Even though it's 100% kale I expected something intense, but it actually tastes like mild broccoli — and I mean that as a compliment. Would be lovely stirred into stews as well. I always thought of Kyusai as the brand behind those 'disgusting drink' commercials, but apparently they've been using exclusively domestic kale all along. Respect.

First time trying a kale supplement and I was pleasantly surprised by how drinkable it is. Seriously thinking about signing up for regular deliveries.

It takes a bit more shaking to fully dissolve but the taste is perfectly acceptable. No complaints there.

Every day I blend this into my pea protein shake and my stomach has never been happier. Results may vary from person to person, but my digestion now runs like clockwork. Definitely worth a shot!

Everyone remembers those old commercials about how awful it tastes, but honestly this is completely fine to drink. There's a faint grassy note but it goes down easily. Think of it as a thin, lightly earthy tea with a whisper of natural sweetness. Blended with fruit juice it thickens slightly but never feels grainy. At roughly 220 yen per serving it's excellent value.

Ordered in midsummer and the expiration date was well over a year out. Speaks well of their quality control.

The box is sizable but each stick is individually sealed which makes it a little bulky in the pantry. Easy to portion with the shaker and dissolves well with minimal froth. Neutral green flavor — neither exciting nor off-putting — fine if you're not bothered by vegetal tastes.

I braced myself for strong bitterness given that it's pure kale. The more vigorously you shake it, the smoother it becomes. Works equally well in water or milk — milk rounds it off even further. Not extraordinary, but certainly not unpleasant. There's also something satisfying about knowing you're putting something healthy into your body.

Green drinks like this tend to clump and that can kill motivation fast. Having a shaker bundled in solves that entirely — it dissolves perfectly. The flavor is reminiscent of a strong green tea — perfectly fine.

This lives up to the Kyusai reputation. Just as handy and flavorful as their frozen line. The authentic kale taste really comes through and I appreciate that.

The shaker blends it in seconds and the single-serve sticks are perfect for throwing in a bag.

I used to drink this brand a long time ago — tasting it again brought back fond memories.

Blended into carrot-based vegetable juice, any bitterness practically vanishes. It does get a little thick so I top it off with extra water. The bundled shaker prevents any lumps from forming. I did slightly prefer another brand's sweeter taste, but this one holds its own very well.

Pleasant flavor and it makes me feel like I'm making a healthy choice.

Pure domestic kale in powdered form — whip it up in the shaker, catch a brief grassy whiff close up, then enjoy how light and clean it drinks. Not something you'd call tasty exactly, but it's the kind of wholesome drink that becomes a daily anchor.
