FAQ's

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What’s the difference between your matcha and regular green tea?

Matcha is whole leaf tea ground into powder, meaning you consume the entire leaf — and all its antioxidants. Regular green tea is steeped and discarded, offering fewer nutrients

Can I drink this every day?

Definitely. In fact, many of our customers enjoy it daily for its calm energy, focus, and metabolism-boosting benefits. Just 1/2 to 1 tsp a day is plenty.

Is it sweetened or flavored?

Nope! Our matcha is 100% pure with no sugar, no added flavors, and nothing artificial — just clean, fresh matcha the way it should be.

Does the kit come with matcha powder too?

Our kits are available in two formats — with or without matcha powder. Please check your selected option before purchasing.

How long does the matcha stay fresh?

Once opened, it stays fresh for 6–8 months if stored in a cool, dry place or fridge. Always seal it tight after use.

How soon will I feel health benefits after drinking matcha?

Many people feel the effects — like calm focus and gentle energy — within 30 minutes of drinking matcha. Long-term benefits like improved metabolism, skin clarity, and reduced stress become noticeable with consistent use over a few weeks.

Can I use plant-based milk for a latte?

Yes! Oat milk, almond milk, and soy milk all pair beautifully with matcha. Oat milk gives it a naturally sweet, creamy finish that many love.

Rinse with warm water immediately after use and air-dry. Do not use soap on the bamboo whisk — just shake gently to remove moisture.
