Sustainabily sourced from Uji, Kyoto, the Strawberry Matcha blend is made from organic Japanese ceremonial grade matcha and naturally sweetened with coconut sugar and strawberry powder.Head of Marketing at Matcha Made Madeline George said the company is experiencing rapid expansion across NZ, Australia and the US, and this is just the beginning.
“One of the most rewarding things about being an agile brand is that we can react to what our community wants and cater to the latest trends,” she said.
“Strawberry Matcha has been trending on TikTok with over 150 million videos and we can’t wait to bring this into the homes of our consumers.”Matcha contains only 30mg of caffeine compared to your standard coffee which has 95mg.
It also naturally contains L-theanine, an amino acid which promotes relaxation and improves focus and concentration when combined with caffeine.
Matcha Made believes we live in an over-caffeinated community, so the business is on a mission to help shoppers consume caffeine consciously, so you can ditch that jittery feeling and be more mindful.
Matcha Made also comes in Pure, Vanilla and Cinnamon Blends — no coffee machine needed, and the results are the same quality cafe matcha at home, if not better.
