"Matcha" sweets are appearing one after another toward spring. When I took a peek at the convenience store the other day, I found that the ice case had a bright green (package) as if early spring had arrived.

That's why the En-eating editorial department purchased all kinds of matcha ice cream sold at convenience stores now (at the time of writing). I will tell you the ice cream that the staff tried and compared and decided that "this should definitely be bought"!

I bought 6 green tea ice creams

The following 6 items are available for matcha ice cream purchased at the nearest convenience store. Prices include tax, and the items in parentheses are types.

Haagen-Dazs Mini Cup Matcha 293 yen (ice cream)
Haagen-Dazs Crunchie Crunch Matcha Crumble 293 yen (ice cream)
Meiji Essel Super Cup Matcha 140 yen (lacto ice)
Morinaga & Co., Ltd. Tasteful matcha ice cream 172 yen (ice milk)
Akagi Lloyds Ice Stick Matcha 237 yen (ice cream)
7-ELEVEN Gold Gold Matcha Ice Cream 267 yen (ice cream)


Unexpectedly, there are 3 cup ice creams and 3 types combined with toppings and cookie dough.

As a result of eating and comparing them, it turned out that the same "Matcha ice cream" has its own characteristics and different taste and texture!

If you want a “matcha feeling” that goes through, “golden matcha ice cream”

It was 7-ELEVEN's golden matcha ice cream that I felt the most pure matcha without mixing. The sharp bitterness and astringency unique to matcha lived firmly.


It's bitter, but it doesn't insist from the moment you eat it, but as the ice melts, it fills your mouth with wrinkles and the taste of tea. The sweetness is also suppressed and the taste is very adult. The astringent scent that gently comes out of your mouth also makes you smell the quality of matcha.

If you're looking for something to eat, "tasteful matcha ice cream"

While feeling the matcha, the one that I felt was the most satisfying was the tasty matcha ice cream . I got the most "fullness" I ate this time.


Matcha ice cream is placed on a crispy germ-filled biscuit and coated with crispy matcha chocolate, so you can enjoy various textures with a single bite. Ice cream that you can chew and taste.


It wasn't as rich in matcha flavor as gold ice cream (it's a bit lacking in sharpness and bitterness), but it's quite delicious. If this is the case, even children can enjoy it. Considering the price and volume, the goodness of cospa may be the best!

The most popular ice cream in the En-eating editorial department is ...

Haagen- Dazs Crunch Crunch Matcha Crumble was the most popular among the other editorial staff.


The deciding factor is that it doesn't look like any other ice cream. In addition to the "thickness" of matcha, the texture of the crispy crumble and crispy coating further enhances the satisfaction. Moreover, I'm glad that the ice cream, cookie crumble, and coating are all "matcha flavored" from the inside to the outside!

I summarized each taste

Finally, I have briefly summarized each taste, so please refer to it. Of course, each person has his or her own taste, so please buy the ice cream that you think is your favorite type.

・ Haagen-Dazs Mini Cup → Matcha is thick, rich in milk, and bitterness remains.
・ Haagen-Dazs Crunchie Crunch → The ice cream, cookies, and coating are all matcha, so the matcha feel is amazing. You can enjoy three types of matcha that are crispy, crispy, melty, and have different textures.
・ Super cup → Creamy is strong. The bitterness and aroma of matcha are slightly weaker.
・ Tasteful ice cream → Ice cream is bittersweet and creamy. Similar to the matcha flavor of a super cup. The crispy, crispy, and mellow texture is the same as the Haagen-Dazs crunch crunch.
・ Akagi Royce → It's delicious as a whole, but almonds and chocolate are strongly claimed, and the presence of matcha seems to be pushed.
・ 7-ELEVEN gold matcha ice cream → Matcha is thick, and the bitterness and astringency that remains behind is strong. A taste without any miscellaneous taste.
