Why Matcha is so Good for You?

With Wenzel’s new matcha launch, we wanted to share what makes this vibrant green drink so special, and why it’s more than just a trend

So, what is matcha?

Matcha is a finely ground powder made from specially grown green tea leaves. Unlike traditional tea, where leaves are steeped and discarded, matcha is whisked into water or milk, meaning you consume the entire leaf and all of its nutrients.

Why matcha is good for you?

A natural energy boost (without the crash)

Matcha contains both caffeine and L-theanine, a unique amino acid that promotes calm focus. The result? Sustained energy that lasts for hours, no spikes, no jitters.

Packed with antioxidants

Matcha is especially rich in EGCG, a powerful antioxidant known for supporting overall health and wellbeing.

Supports focus and clarity

Thanks to its unique combination of compounds, matcha can help improve concentration while keeping you relaxed.

What makes great matcha?

High-quality matcha is grown using traditional Japanese methods. Tea plants are shaded for several weeks before harvest, giving matcha its vibrant green colour, smooth taste, and signature umami flavour.

Our matcha range is made using quality matcha from Flow, imported directly from Japanese farms to the UK.
