This exclusive Matcha blend combines the velvety texture of Matcha with a hint of natural, sugar-free vanilla for a rich and creamy drink with a powerful kick. The delicate balance of flavours creates a unique and delicious brew that is sure to tantalise your taste buds.
Matcha is a truly unique tea experience, offering a powerful and exquisite taste. The green tea leaves (tencha), which are packed with polyphenols, are ground into a fine powder, allowing you to consume all the goodness contained in the leaf. This delivers a healthy dose of L-theanine, renowned for its stress reducing properties amongst other health-benefits.
Ground from the finest quality matcha leaves, this special blend is carefully flavoured with natural vanilla for a truly exquisite experience. Enjoy the fresh, earthy flavour of matcha with a subtle hint of sweet vanilla for a cup that is both comforting and invigorating.
Prepare your Vanilla Matcha the traditional way, by using a bamboo spoon (Chasaku) to measure out the powder, placing it in a bowl where it is mixed with hot water and whisked vigorously using a bamboo whisk until frothy. The Matcha is then served – and sometimes drank – from the bowl.
Matcha (80%), Flavouring (20%)

Tea Pop!
We saw so little matcha during our trip because most shops we visited were sold out, so when we saw Whittard had a flavoured but unsweetened matcha we were excited to pick it up and give it a try. It was vacuum sealed in the smaller 30g tin it was purchased in with one of those pull tab/pop tops. So, I was INCREDIBLY disappointed to open it up this morning and be met with a super, super dull and chalky looking powder. Not very fresh seeming at all!
Unfortunately it didn’t taste very high quality either. The vanilla flavour was totally fine, but the matcha itself was very dull, bitter and grassy. I ended up pouring most of the matcha I’d made into a cup with ice and then topping with a coconut flavoured La Croix, which definitely saved the drink big time. You could still taste the matcha a little, though the vanilla note was heavily masked by the coconut. Better overall that the matcha on its own, though…
