Good to know
Is your matcha sweetened?
No. Both grades are 100% matcha green tea powder with no added sugar. Add a syrup if you'd like it sweeter.
Which matcha should I choose?
Choose Original for lattes and sweet or iced drinks, where its earthy flavour holds up to milk and syrups. Choose Classic Ceremonial if you like your matcha with water or just a little milk.
How much matcha do I need per drink?
Around 1.5g, about half a teaspoon. A 100g pouch makes around 66 drinks.
Does matcha contain caffeine?
Yes. Matcha is made from green tea leaves, so it contains caffeine.
How should I store it?
Reseal the pouch after use and keep it cool and dry. For the best flavour, use within six weeks of opening.
Can I buy matcha for my café or office?
Yes. For regular or larger orders, get in touch with our wholesale team.
