We like to think of it as a sort of superhero amongst teas, as it’s a super-concentrated green tea powder that’s packed with antioxidants and nutrients. teapigs matcha comes from the renowned Nishio region in Japan, where the tea leaves are grown under cover to produce lots of amino acids and chlorophyll (the bright green good stuff). The leaves are then dried and very slowly ground by granite to a very fine powder, which is then packed and sealed immediately, so as to lock in all the nutrients in. It’s been a ceremonial beverage drunk by Buddhist monks and royalty for over 900 years. But you needn’t feel foolish about the fact you’ve never heard of it before as, until now, virtually all matcha has been consumed within Japan.
Louise the tea taster saysWith water - like a super-power green tea brew.
With juice/milk - a hint of delicate green tea flavour.
Blobby and slobby - this super-power brew is the answer to all muffin-top, couch potato-related concerns.
Every day - a shot a day is better than an apple at keeping the doc at bay.

OMG you gotta try this stuff mister, you just gotta!
by • 2nd May 2010
“I'm just about to order my 3rd little pot of this green magic - so far I've noticed that it's helped me start to shift some of those hard to loose last few pounds (with exercise of course) and I no longer get that afternoon shlumpiness. I'm far more alert during the day without the 'nnnnggghhhh' feeling of tension that caffeine can give. It's a firm part of my daily breakfast routine plus I've found the perfect way to take it - simply add the desired amount to a little bottle of drinking yoghurt, pop the lid back on, shake like crazy and drink (I use a cheap own brand cholesterel lowering one for added health benefits). If you don't like the taste of Matcha go for a flavoured yoghurt drink and you can hardly taste the difference.Like I said - it's magic. TRY IT! :-) Lisa from Worthing, West Sussex.” |
The best tea ever!
by • 1st February 2011
“I tried matcha tea after reading about its energy boosting effects and I have to report that it is true! I have crohns disease and had started to suffer terrible energy slumps in the afternoon, particulary after eating. It was so bad sometimes I thought I would have to leave work. After drinking Matcha in the morning for a week I started to feel so much better. I can now wake up in the morning and be alert whereas before I was quite literally a zombie and I can now go for a whole day and not feel sleepy in the slightest untill bedtime. I cant recommend this product enough. I drink it as a cup of tea as trying to mix it in the lovely shot glass made quite a mess! |
1 word, WOW...
by Alan Turner • 12th March 2012
“i love this tea, i have it every morning and it keeps me feeling good. I would recommend anyone and everyone drinks this tea... |
Matcha latte
by Terry • 4th November 2012
“I tried making matcha with water at first but didn't enjoy the taste, even though I enjoy green tea normally. Drinking a matcha shot was almost palatable as it was over fast - but a bit like drinking medicine for me. I've found that making a latte with it by whisking it into warm/hot milk is really tasty though and I really do enjoy it. A bit too soon to tell if there's any noticeable health benefits but I'll report back...” |
Matcha!!
by Emily • 24th February 2014
“I love Matcha, not sure why people couldn't like it, it's so nice and refreshing and tastes lovely. I love it in hot water, or as a late. but I think best one I have has is mixed in to fat free vanilla yoghurt then frozen :) (you can use the yoghurt, blended with soy milk to make a fab cold 'smoothie' also)” |
Amazing!
by Lucy • 27th March 2015
“So good. Strange taste which takes some getting used to but I mix it with lemon sorbet which tastes great. A great energy booster which I now crave as much as normal tea!” |

5 star
by • 4th May 2010
“I was surprised, not to say a little shocked, at the price of matcha when I first read about it. However, when I read that the cost was in fact £0.83 per cup, compared with what I would quite cheerfully pay for a cup of coffee and a Danish, I decided to give matcha a try. |
Good and Green
by • 22nd February 2011
“I have been drinking (swallowing) the powerful powder for about three weeks now.I bung it in my cholesterol-lowering drink vial and give it a quick shake before drinking down. I think it helps the afternoon energy levels and reduces the amount I want to eat. |
Good matcha
by Katie Steward • 22nd May 2012
“One of the nicest matchas I've tried, easy on the digestion which is often a good indicator. I prefer to whisk it with cold milk as a kind of 'matcha frappe', a much more pleasant flavour this way and if I don't have my morning shot, I miss it!” |
More powerful than I expected...
by Jem • 12th November 2012
“I bought the Matcha set in a desperate attempt to boost my energy levels as most days I was coming home from work and falling asleep on the sofa. |
Matcha Me UP!
by snub 2005 • 24th September 2013
“Best tasting green tea - clear refreshing taste best in the morning to wash away the cobwebs - highly rate this stuff for anyone into their green tea! |
Prefer it with hot water
by Sandra Tyler • 2nd March 2014
“We've been drinking this daily for about a month now. I have mine when I get to work - made with hot water, mix a little first in the bottom of the cup then whisk it smooth before adding more hot water. It does look a bit like 'pond' but I actually like the taste. My husband mixes his with a probiotic yogurt drink and says you can't taste the Matcha at all. Will buy again!” |
Excellent service, helps me during breast cancer
by Frances Holden • 19th October 2015
“I've been using matcha green tea on and off for a couple of years but more recently on a frequent basis. I was diagnosed with breast cancer I found sometimes I didn't fancy certain things but a little green tea in a smoothly has probably help support my hair and nails during chemotherapy. I cannot guarantee it's health benefits but psychologically I've felt it refreshing mixed with a teaspoon of honey and lemon on my bad days. The team also were helpful during a recent enquiry. Highly recommend trying. Frances from Potters Bar xxx” |
So cute
by Lucy Hayes Logan • 31st July 2019
“The container is so sweet and the matcha is spot on! make sure to mix well to avoid any little lumps.” |
Wow I love it!
by • 15th October 2008
“I am a big fan of tea pigs anyway so after reading about Matcha super green from one of their newsletters I knew I had to give it a try. Due to having no energy and feeling low, I was looking out for something to give me a boost and wow did I find it! Dont let the smell put you off, I was worried at first but now I love it I add more water so I can sip it and enjoy it for longer. It has a creamy, heady relaxing aroma which tastes dreamy. I am about to order another tub as I do not want to run out. Try it you wont be dissapointed.” |
Monica
by • 19th May 2010
“Have been drinking matcha for a few weeks now and I can thoroughly recommend it! I take it in a shot glass first thing in the morning mixed with some orange juice.Without trying to,I have lost a few pounds and feel more energised.Worth the money to me!!!! Well done teapig people for bringing it to us!” |
Matcha in a Nut shake recipe
by • 9th April 2011
“Being a Raw Food Coach and chef, constantly coming up with various new recipes, I am absolutely loving experimenting with the teapigs Matcha and the variety of uses it has. Not to mention how pure and consistent it makes my energy levels all throughout the day. I wanted to share one of my favourite Matcha recipes with everyone else too. Enjoy... http://www.betterraw.com/2011/04/matcha-hemp-shake-for-athlete.html” |
:-) Matcha
by Ellie • 29th May 2012
“I take my matcha with a little warm water and I whisk it well so it thickens with the air. That seems to enhance the taste and I really enjoy it every morning. I started on it 5 months ago for the anti oxidants. I feel better now than I have for years and I'm sure this is due in part to the matcha. I've lost some weight too, another matcha bonus :-).” |
Life's little secrets
by sgoodlett • 2nd December 2012
“I have sickle cell and very low on iron and always feeling sluggish and being a shift worker it doesn't help. Matcha has given me a huge boost, now on my 3 rd pot. I take it daily first thing with 1 freshly squeezed Orange juice and whisk away, quick shot and it has made my skin brighter, a lot more energy throughout the day and a tummy detox that stops that sluggish feeling. I have had a lot of compliments and I put that all down to my little pot of secret - well i do tell everyone eventually. Thanks a million. Can't put a price of feeling good. I LOVE Match and TeaPig for the magic tea. |
Amazing stuff, expensive but worth every penny
by Bee Lopez • 26th September 2013
“I swear by it...This really is the superhero amongst teas! 137 times the antioxidants of standard green tea, 70 times the antioxidants of orange juice and 9 times beta carotene of spinach.... amazing stuff! really incredible product which makes me feel tons better and gives me lots of energy. Perfect for when you stop smoking as it is not only healthy and helps you clear toxins from your body quickly but also elevates your mood. It's not cheap at £23 - £25 for a tin but you only need to use half a tea spoon every day either with hot water (you drink it) or sprinkled on your breakfast or in a salad vinagrette. A tin lasts for 3 months which means it works out at less than 30p a day to feel amazing. After a week I noticed the difference and 3 months on from when I first tried it I can honestly say its one of the best things ever to exist. |
Love it!
by Jade • 7th March 2014
“Bought another tin recently and after taking it for 3 days I can already feel the effects. I start work at half 5 every morning and always add it to my smoothies I make around 6am and feel full of energy for the rest of the day! Sleep like a baby and skin has got so much clearer. Would 100% recommend. Just waiting for the slimming benefits to kick in.” |
a great pick ME up
by ATW • 20th May 2016
“I have ME/chronic fatigue syndrome & have matcha every day for the antioxidant benefits. It does help as a boost, be that physical or mental. I take it either straight or mix it into a raw cacao hot drink made with coconut milk - it's delicious.!” |
Matcha Green Tea

Do not under estimate the power of Matcha
by • 26th May 2010
“Started on this stuff about 3 weeks ago. Matcha keeps me alert all day with none of the jitters / headaches of coffee. I've given up coffee. Its a bit of an acquired taste but ok chugged down in some hot water. Matcha kit is essential to make sure all of it gets dissolved. Nice one Teapigs! P.S. If you're miserly with the quarter teaspoon measures you can stretch it out beyond a months supply! :)” |
I almost don't want to promote this amazing tea........
by • 18th April 2011
“Because it is SO AMAZING I am frightened to tell anyone because then they will buy it, tell their friends who will then buy it and then Teapigs will run out and I won't be able to get it anymore!!!!!!!!!!! People are commenting on pictures of me asking why all of a sudden I look so good, how have I lost weight etc etc! |
matcha for better teenage skin
by F Topping • 18th June 2012
“great for teenage skin - worked on my son where little else had any effect. Brilliant stuff” |
Love it!
by Amy • 17th January 2013
“Once you try it you will be converted! it may take a little while to get used to the taste, I like it best with juice. It is a natural pick-me-up and I hardly every get ill, if you take it as soon as you get a tickle in your throat. I give it too my kids too in juice to keep them perky!... |
love this stuff
by Cindy Bonnell • 9th March 2014
“I am a US customer so I pay a premium for this tea but I cannot find a better brand in the US. It is great for energy level and tons of antioxidants. I enjoy drinking in the I was excited to see tea pigs will becoming US soon!” |
Green power!
by Shelley • 21st May 2016
“Tea Pigs Matcha is a great way to start the day...tasty and energizing.” |
Excellent energiser!
by • 8th January 2009
“I have just about finished my first pot of matcha - which I purchased a long time ago but never got around to trying. I'm impressed enough to order another as I don't want to be without! I wondered at first if it was a 'mind over matter' thing that I felt more alert after my daily dose, but having forgotten to take it over Christmas whilst the fridge was too crammed full to see the little pot on the shelf, I soon realised that this stuff does work! I also believe that it has had a positive effect on my metabolism, as I have been dieting for the past few months and the weight has been dropping a little faster since I started guzzling the green stuff! |
Part of my fight against cancer
by • 7th June 2010
“I have been diagnosed with inoperable breast cancer and last year had 6 mths of chemotherapy and 6 weeks of radiotherapy which left me feeling very tired and lacking in energy. I found it hard to believe - being sceptical by nature - but my energy levels have improved dramatically since drinking Matcha green tea. I hope the high levels of antioxidants also help me keep 'the beast at bay'. Thank you for supplying the amazing Matcha!” |
Susan
by • 2nd May 2011
“A daily shot of Matcha Green tea makes all the difference to losing/maintaining weight loss. A low glycemic load eating regime and a small amount of daily exercise works well - but the addition of Matcha really gets the weight moving.” |
AMAZING
by lisa • 3rd July 2012
“Ordered this at a cafe as recomended by the till worker- when it came it looked like a frothy pea soup- I was scared! Didnt need to be as it tasted really delicious, not 'bitty' in the slightest... just about to order myself a jar :-)” |
Apprehensive - then pleasant surprise!
by Gundula Swann • 21st March 2014

Eliminate the afternoon slump
by Margaret • 21st May 2016
“Matcha green tea has helped me avoid the afternoon slump. I had tried other remedies, I have a good diet and take plenty of exercise and water, always take a walk at lunch time, but still struggled with concentration in the afternoon. I now have matcha with my porridge and it has made a huge difference. It's only long boring meetings that are a problem now! I would definitely recommend it to increase concentration without any negative side effects.” |
Designated drivers should get this!
by • 21st August 2009
“I LOVE matcha! I went to a one day festival near where we live last weekend and agreed I'd drive back us all home at the end of the night. I took a big bottle of orange juice and matcha and sipped on that throughout the day. I out-danced everyone and still felt alert enough at the end of the day to have no worries about driving. Also having an interesting alternative to alcohol made me feel less of a party pooper! A lot of people wanted to know what this strange green concoction was and everyone that overcame their trepidation really liked it.” |
matcha - I love you!
by • 29th June 2010
“ok, so maybe it's expensive.. but having real matcha is such a treat (I've only ever had the sweetened version before that the Japanese tend to use more for baking and desserts). my only issue is the shot glass / milk frother combo - I can never get the amount right and it always ends up going everywhere! instead, I make a bigger drink so I can enjoy the flavour of the tea more! I've noticed I have more energy and a spring in my step thanks to this bright green powder that looks more like paint.. thanks teapigs!” |
Energized
by • 15th June 2011
“Had my first shot of matcha and its fantastic, energized for the day. I haven't had the tried heavy feeling after lunch, still on the go....matcha will be an everyday enjoyment.” |
Nicely surprised.......
by Sharon Naylor • 6th July 2012
“I was prepared to hate the taste but determined to persevere for the health benefits. What a nice surprise - its really quite lovely and really gives a boost and sense of well being, and thats after only a few cups! Will continue to use regularly as an alternative to coffee in the mornings” |
Matcha tea
by Susan Smith • 28th January 2013
“Beware! Do not drink Matcha late late at night! Matcha does exactly what it says on the box! We've been adding it to our daily fresh juices, soups and smoothies but recently thought we'd give ourselves an extra antioxidant boost in our late evening Teapigs cuppa - only to find ourselves still awake and alert in the early hours! Best drunk during the day when you need a little extra va va voom.” |
At last
by Joanne • 3rd December 2013
“I love tea and have tried many over the years, a friend gave me a sample of Matcha and all I can say is wow. Tried it with Juice and there wasn't a bad taste, I seen a difference in my weight and my energy levels straight away. Most importantly I suffer from IBS and have found a massive improvement in my health THANK YOU,” |
Vitality in a can
by Lisa P • 21st March 2014
“Wouldn't have believed it but it works. I feel happier and have more energy. I too sometimes have an extra shot late afternoon if I need energy into the evening. I mix mine with a little cranberry juice and just knock it back.” |
Matcha Green Tea
by • 1st December 2009
“This wonderful tea mixed with morning orange juice sets me up for the day, and for an extra lift in the afternoon to help with the gardening I mix it with cranberry juice, it's great I wish I had known about it earlier.” |
matcha green tea
by • 15th July 2010
“LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff..... keeps me sane on the tube in the morning - gone are the days of shoving on and being in a huff cos someone deigns to stand within a cm of me! Wasnt sure it would actually work but if I don't really notice a difference anywhere else - it definitely improved that morning journey! And... I havent had a summer cold this year - coincidence?” |
Great start to the day
by • 4th July 2011
“It's made my family think I'm little mad starting each day with a green milk froth :) but what a difference it's making. It's July - last week of the school term & the last couple of weeks have been crazy! - usually I'm on my last legs. But have been drinking my green latte each morning & my energy levels are definitely better. It's not a caffeine buzz that is great when you first drink your fresh coffee ... and then feel like you need another 2 hours later. It's a natural, feel good feeling & de-fogs my brain. Will be back for more when my pot starts to run out :O)” |
Wow, what a boost
by Rhiannon • 11th July 2012
“This tea really does give me an energy boost. I think the taste is too strong so I add a TeaPig's peppermint tea bag and it's amazing :)” |
Instant greatness
by Philip chamberlain • 9th February 2013
“Love green tea, and the smell of this matcha is intoxicating, i do recommend doing the shot though as mixed this with my morning coffee, you know for the extra boost and the taste was, well, so please buy and please do the shot.” |
nice stirred into yoghurt!
by toni • 3rd December 2013
“I really enjoy green tea, and drink lots of it, so thought I would advance into the world of matcha! I don't really enjoy drinking it, just don't like the taste, so instead I stir a spoonful into a flavoured yoghurt every day, therefore it goes down a treat, even though the yoghurt turns green!!” |
matcha rocks!
by • 11th January 2010
“I really just got this for the anti-oxidant health boost but my jeans started getting looser after about a week and a half. I have a terrible metabolism and have to eat well and work out a lot just to stay normal, so I couldn't believe it. It has definitely boosted my metabolism and improved concentration levels. I love it am converting everyone I know, I think i'm converted for life (p.s. you should be paying me commission teapigs, i've converted about 8 people already). Thanks for providing such a great product!” |

“I have just got my seventh friend into this amazing product.I feel so fantastic from drinking it for the last eight weeks that they all wanted to know how!!! When I told them what I was drinking they all wanted to try It now they are hooked.I have also lost nearly 1 stone from when I started drinking this product not bad going in eight weeks.” |
Quite surprised
by Julie • 15th July 2012
“I wasn't expecting to like this, or see any real benefits either, but i'm quite surprised by it. I drink it with cold milk and I love the taste. I'd put off trying it due to the cost, but it's worth it. I've noticed more energy and a general calmer, more focused feeling. Great way to start the day!” |
Amazing!! Worth every penny!
by Hatz • 7th March 2013
“I was quite sceptical about trying this tea at first. I've had green tea in the past, but have never been a big fan of it and at £25 it is quite steep to the other competitive brands out there. I've always had a problem with feeling really tired and drained at work and coffee and berroca wasn't really helping much anymore, so knew i had to try something else. A friend recommended teapigs matcha and after reading many reviews on cheaper matcha brands, a lot of people were commenting that no one can beat the quality and taste of the teapigs brand, so I decided to give it a go. So far this is day three of me trying it, and OMG I feel the different already! I am much more alert then before and feel happier in myself too. This tea literally works miracles to help boost you. And the great news is, if you don't like drinking the same things everyday or not a fan of green tea or hot drinks, you can mix it with pretty much anything and it still tastes amazing. I have been mixing it with orange juice. So far this is my favourite product of 2013 and would recommend it to anyone. Thanks teapigs! :)” |
Great for bubble tea
by Pim Robertson • 4th December 2013
“I love matcha green tea. Adding it to bubble tea is brilliant. Unfortunately it gets a bit expensive as bubble tea needs at least a tablespoon full.” |
Menopause boost
by Adie • 26th November 2017
“I have been using matcha for approximately 5 years. I started to get fuzzy head feelings when the menopause started. Matcha has helped incredibly with that and gives me a boost to the day. I like mine with muesli, yoghurt and honey.” |

by • 25th January 2010
“I met the tea pig team at the Diet and fitness show at Olympia yesterday, really impresssed with the taste of this Green tea and have spent loads of money trying to find the right one, this is definately it. Tastes great with apple juice, i felt energised, 'really' and I teach exercise, so really helps my energy levels and concentration.” |
Its Brilliant
by • 10th August 2010
“I havent been using matcha for long but I have seen a massive difference. I have more energy through out the day and my clothes seem to be looser too. |
Matcha
by Dianne Owen • 11th October 2011
“Previously heard of Matcha from magazies that was very costly, but after tasting Teapigs products I knew it was worth the gamble! It looks green and awful but if you down it in one there is no after taste (in fact you crave more!), but I stick to 1 a day so it lasts a month and I look and feel a lot better for it :D” |
Love it!
by Premal • 13th August 2012
“This stuff is amazing! I've been drinking loose leaf green tea for a while so I thought i'd try the Matcha and I love it! I drink a bowl of it every morning, with my breakfast. Some people say it tastes like grass and it tastes weird but you adapt to it and learn to taste and smell the sweetness of it. You can really tell the difference within your self when you drink it. I have the bamboo whisk and spoon and a traditional tea bowl. All worth it!” |
Loving it!
by Annita Pullinger • 1st January 2014
“I love green tea and I found this is the best for me! |
The bomb!
by Ems • 21st May 2014
“I've been having my daily shot of matcha for about 8 weeks now and I cannot even begin to tell you what a difference it's made for me. |
good quality matcha
by Nel • 16th January 2018
“I lived in Japan so have drunk matcha before, I bought some from a supermarket soon after coming back to the UK and was incredibly disappointed. My matcha arrived today and I could tell it was good quality simply from the smell. I ordered it as part of the traditional matcha kit and set about making some immediately. It was delicious. My only issue is the fact the tin is quite hard to open. I have a disability that affects my hands so it is probably easier for others but I found it very hard to open the ring pull inside the tin and spilled some matcha all over my trousers. As the tin already has a lid is this ring pull really necessary? But as this might be purely my issue I don't feel I can take away any stars for this.” |
A Cynic is Converted
by • 27th January 2010
“I read the 'hype' and moved on. Then saw the discount code and thought I would try Matcha. |
Converted!
by • 11th April 2011
“I said I would come back and talk about Matcha again if I was converted. Well here I am, I stuck with it. I am on my 2nd tin (I found a supplier near to home) and have just ordered 2 more today. I still wouldn't drink it as a shot, but I have it as part of my soya fruit smoothie each morning (soya milk + soya yoghurt + oat bran + frozen berries + super power matcha - all whizzed up in my blender). I really noticed the difference when I was away for a week and had no access to my smoothies... I felt sluggish, and I felt dreary. I have become an addict to matcha and have also found a palatable way of drinking it too - score! I am really pleased I persevered. I am also in the middle of a health overhaul at the moment too (lost 2.5 stone so far, another 3 to go) and although I wouldn't attribute that to matcha (it's been the old eat less and exercise more sensible approach) I do find my matcha smoothie really gets me going and energetic first thing, and keeps me full until lunch. A cup of tea + toast never managed that. Thanks Teapigs - I continue to spread the word!” |
Lives up to the hype!
by Jess • 1st November 2011
“I bought matcha tea after reading the rave reviews on this website - I'll freely admit that I wasn't expecting it to live up to the hype! |
Vicky
by Victoria Taylor • 31st August 2012
“Have been really pleasantly surprised by matcha. I had it with cold water to begin with, but preferred it with hot water as it brings the flavour out more. It actually tastes really nice!” |
Tasty and good for you!!
by Steffie Lambert • 4th January 2014
“Delicious additive to any yoghurt or juice (particularly apple). Great way to start the new year!” |
Wow!
by Jacqueline Jackson • 9th June 2014
“We received three samples of the new Matcha green tea drinks and they not only taste gorgeous but raise energy levels through the roof. A lovely lazy way to drink green tea and much healthier for you than fruit juice. Thoroughly recommended - a brilliant idea!” |

“After much deliberating bout whether 2 buy ths tea or not (due 2 never havin tried it b4 n it being quite a pricy tea!) I decided tht if th standards of all of th other teapigs wer anythin to go by thn it would be foolish of me not 2 try th matcha green tea! All I can say is tht I'm extremely glad tht I made th decision 2 purchase sum of ths wonderfully healthy, tasty and energising tea! Double thumbs up 2 teapigs 4 nailin it again n again!!!!” |
There's Nothing To Match(a) The Matcha
by • 30th October 2010
“I treated myself to some of this amazing stuff recently and am so terribly glad I did. Within 20mins of having a wee shot of it in apple juice, I feel alert, awake and calm. It keeps my hunger in check (I overeat like no one's business) and as someone mentioned earlier it's a great internal cleanser. |
Best ever!
by Eric abad • 8th September 2012
“This tea is the best! It taste right with anything. I start my day with a shot of pure matcha tea or i mix it with soya milk. It makes me feel good! Give it a shot! :)” |
My first 30g
by Martin Gilbert • 1st May 2013
“I have just about finished by first 30g of Matcha from teapigs and i want to share my results. I take a shot every morning with breakfast religiously. I tried adding it to coffee, milk etc but I find the direct route the best. So, energy, this has improved and has been more noticeable in week 3. Skin, I've always had a good skin regime but I was amazed that my skin is even more smoother (noticeable in week 3) and the bags/dark rings under my eyes have reduced (more noticeable in week 4). Body fat, this is a difficult one as I have a good diet and hit the gym 4 times a week and my body fat is low to start with. However, one thing I have noticed is I sweat more during my workouts. This is good. I'm that impressed so far I've just ordered the 80g to keep me stocked. Don't expect results immediately, stick with it and the benefits will come.” |
Possibly helps with giving up smoking
by Karen • 12th January 2014
“Have been drinking matcha for a few weeks now. Firstly, it tastes vile. I really don't understand other people's comments such as earthy and grassy; that I wouldn't mind but it tastes and smells like seaweed water! However, I just mix mine up with a very small amount of boiling water, first mixing it up into a paste to reduce lumps and then adding a little more hot water and stirring well. I then top up the glass with apple juice and like magic, you cannot taste the matcha anymore! I can't really feel any effects such as increased energy but I gave up smoking last week and I am finding it amazingly easy compared to many failed previous attempts over the years. Could it be the matcha, who knows but I'm starting to feel pretty good!” |

Green rocket fuel

“I've been using Matcha for a couple of months now, and overall I've been impressed by the results. I drink it as a daily shot, with a quarter teaspoon of matcha dropped into a small gulp of fresh orange juice - I'm not a fan of normal green tea so I wasn't sure I'd like the taste but it's actually quite pleasant, in the shot it tastes a little like blood orange juice. It turns the juice a dark green spinach colour, so you really do feel like you're drinking something very healthy. Use a milk frother to mix it though, dissolves the tea much more easily than by hand. |

“So i thought I'd splash out and bought a kit of these things. It's absolutely amazing, re-energises you, kills your hunger and makes you feel really alert and active. Because of the increase in metabolism it also makes you lose weight, and feel a lot more like exercising, and feel a lot less drained when you do. It's amazing, a miracle for anybody who lacks motivation. |

Perfection
by Drugsdontwork • 23rd January 2014
“I started to drink teapigs matcha around 5 month ago, just one cup in the morning, mixed with warm water. The reason to start was my constant fatigue, even in the mornings, althoug I have a quite healthy lifestyle. I was very impressed from the first month! I started to feel energized and more concentrated in the first couple of weeks. Never ever before I felt so good and not tired at all after a work day, but going to sleep easily at 11pm. Drinking additional shot around 8pm helps me to stay fresh at work through the night in case of a deadline. After two month I definitely noticed the slimming effect and skin improvement. |

“We're enjoying our Matcha as part of our morning 'healthy stuff' intake. We've also found it quite easy to mix if you start with a paste, like hot chocolate, it's easier even than the wizzy thing.” |
Update
by Sam Eggleton • 24th February 2012
“I have been taking it awhile now and depending on the day take 1-3 shots. Usually have it with juice but as I'm going away needed to try drinking it with water. I wouldn't say it was my favourite way of drinking it but it doesn't taste as bad as it smells in the water. Just like veg water. So phew can drink it on hols” |

WORTH EVERY PENNY

Not as bad as I thought!
by Cat • 26th January 2014
“Well I have started the matcha challenge today and I have to admit I was very wary of the taste! I am not a fan of green tea or powder in drinks! Well I mixed it in 30mls of orange juice and gave it a good whisking and knocked it back! Was pleasantly surprised at the taste, I think the orange juice masked it well as the smell from the tub was very strong! Bring on the challenge!” |
love it!!
by Charlie Worth • 25th December 2014
“I have a hot cup of this every morning. I love the taste (though looks a bit like pond water) & it gives me a nice boost of energy, which is good as I'm not really a morning person.” |
Matcha green tea

Good things come in little pots...
by • 8th April 2010
“The super heros of tea! Didn't look too pleasant mixed, but a shot of this on a morning really sets you up for the day - after about a week I noticed the benefits, especially if i didn't take it one day. As they saying goes - you don't know what you've got till it's gone... My husband is converted too! Well worth giving it a go - you won't be disappointed.” |
i love organic matcha!!
by • 20th January 2011
“I buy this every month!! i first tried it just as a shot on a morning and it totally put me off(it tasted, well, powdery green is all i can say), but then, i started adding it to orange juice, and for the past 6 months i have been having it as a morning smoothie.....banana, ice, very small bit of orange juice, put it in the blender and then as its whizzing around, add the 1/4 teaspoon of matcha. I used to add the matcha at the beginning but a lot of the powder was wasted so i now add it as it is mixing. It tastes lush! If you really dont like the taste of it, just make your own smoothie on a morning, just remember to add the ice as the blender makes it warm...hope this has helped you lot who dont like the taste!! thanks tea pigs...im obsessed!!! (and thanks for the 20% off this month...the usual place that i get it, it wasn't in stock, and now also costing £29 there...gutted. cheers!!!)” |

It does what it says on the tin!
by claire prior • 26th May 2013
“Reading all these reviews does make me chuckle. It tastes rank - there is no getting away from the fact. However taken as a shot every morning with some juice it is easily knock backable!! It REALLY does give you the energy boost and zing that puts a spring in your step. Not noticed any weight loss.” |
Matcha Green Tea
by sgoodlett • 6th February 2014
“This sip of magic has helped me in so many ways. I feel the bounce back of the "old me" with a "new me" freshness, lighter and happier. The taste is no problems for me , just mix in with a little freshly squeeze orange juice each morning. I feel happier and skin has improved and compliments speak for itself. Well done Teapigs bringing Matcha to the market. I love it. Suriya from Hampton Hill” |

Thank you teapigs!
by • 26th January 2011
“Having discovered almost by accident that drinking green tea seemend to ease my headaches, my wonderful boyfriend brought me some green tea temples, which are so much better than anything I have found in the shop! So, when teapigs emailed me a promotion for matcha green tea, I just had to try it. I was quite confident having felt first hand the benefits of drinking green tea that this bright green powder would be good .. but nothing could have prepared me for the instant boost after my first glass. Driving to work feeling calm, clear headed and energized on a Monday morning, was simply the best feeling I have ever had. I've only been taking this incredible drink for 3 days and I am very excited to see the long term benefits. I cannot recommend this too highly!” |
No more coffee!
by Vanessa • 9th March 2012
“S'amazing stuff! I was hooked on the coffee to get me going and keep me going. Matcha seems to manage it all in one shot a day!!! I've been having it as soon as I wake up for the last few days and the boost is amazing. And it lasts! Glad I can finally break my dependence on coffee.” |
Amazing
by KH • 9th June 2013
“Matcha tea has taken me out of a 20 year brain fog and tiredness after having ME. A daily shot of Matcha along with a Proven adult probiotic capsule has alleviated the very uncomfortable symptoms of dyspepsia, so I now don't need or take any proton pump inhibitors (lanzoprazole) or tablets for nausea. I have recommended this to many |
Morning Shot
by Nat • 24th February 2014
“I started the matcha challenge at the start of Feb. I have a shot whisked with fruit juice every morning and I totally love it. I cannot stand drinking hot green tea so this has been perfect for me. I now cannot go without it and cant wait to buy my second tin at the end of the month. My skin feels fab and it helps with energy too.” |
Amazing benefits!
by Sara Dixon • 10th March 2015
“My dad bought me this for my birthday 8 days ago. I'm starting to feel huge benefits now such as constipation is easing, not needing to depend on strong coffees every morning, feeling more alert and you should see my skin - it's so smooth! I'd like to attempt to use matcha in some recipes. I would not usually spend so much money on a product but I will be when this one runs out.” |

Samples 
by Julie Mason • 16th November 2013
“I bought the sample of this to see what it tastes like and IF I could handle the taste daily (very fussy when it comes to teas). The taste isn't too bad (I was expecting it to be for some reason!) had my first sample before my trip to work one morning, defiantly felt more awake than after my daily morning coffee! |

Matcha
by Neil Harrison • 12th May 2014
“Got some a few days ago. First day straight with hot water, bit like liquified spinach ,second day mixed with some loose leaf teapigs yerba mate - very nice, a double whammy of greatness:), third day mixed with beetroot juice, again lovely - looks great too! In my experience needs to be mixed. I am anticipating great things. The kit is quite nice too:)” |
excited to try
by tiffany • 26th January 2012

Matcha
by Rosie • 28th February 2012
“I tried matcha last year and found the taste awful and struggled to drink it but I am kept on and finished the tin. I was tempted to try it again with the January offer and found the taste is much better, I don't know if I had a bad batch before but I had to hold my nose to drink it and it never dissolved even with a whick but this time I can drink it like a cup of tea. It still does not fully dissolve but the taste is almost pleasant. I feel more alert fairly quickly after drinking it which is a big plus for me.” |
Looks yuk but tastes great!
by Lee Bowman • 30th March 2019
“I like green tea but this takes the experience to another level, it look awful but tastes great, You do need to keep this moving as you drink as it does like to settle” |
Surprising
by Claire D'Arcy • 11th October 2012
“I bought this on a whim having never heard of it before and I admit I wasn't expecting much of a result. The colour was quite off-putting but even just mixed with water it has a lovely fresh cut grass smell and tastes like strong green tea so is completely unproblematic. My husband has tried sprinkling it on cereal and toast(!) and says it is un-noticeable to taste. Hard to be 100% sure but I would say I overall feel better, more alert, less sluggish in the afternoons and am even sleeping a little better. Definitely worth continuing with.” |
Quite Tasty
by Claire Scull • 3rd August 2013
“I've just had my first try of Matcha, got a free sample with an order, it is actually quite tasty. It tastes of good strong tea, nothing more, nothing less. I am going to order some and see how I get on.” |
Not Worth It
by Ellen Evans • 14th November 2016
“I'm a student, so this purchase was quite a thought-about, pricey one for me. However, after reading the 5* reviews I was convinced that it would boost my energy and help my skin. I took it without fail every morning and have felt no benefits whatsoever. Very disappointed :( Perhaps it just doesn't work for some people! I personally wouldn't recommend for students on a tight budget as it didn't make any difference to my energy, skin or mood. Keep searching!” |
Too expensive but not the best quality
by A • 24th April 2013
“I am a matcha fan.The quality is ok, just ok. Smell and taste not as good as the one I bought from a japanese food market in London, the Japanese one I bought is only £4.99 for 30g, and that is the product from Japan! but teapigs sell £25 for 30g, quality better?i don't think so.” |
Not wwhat I expected
by Nicole Mitchelmore • 29th November 2013
“Made my first cup the 'traditional way' - with hot water and I couldn't get past the first sip because of the strong algae taste and smell which other people have mentioned. |
DOesn't worth the hype!
by Fahmida • 21st May 2014
“The "matcha taste" is milder so more edible for people who hate matcha taste but the benefit is not more than any usual matcha (if not less). |
Be careful, Japanese products are not safe
by Prisca • 29th April 2013
“If you are concerned about your health, you'd better not drink any tea grown in Japan. Although the powder green tea imported by Teapigs is grown in the region that is not close to where the nuclear explosion happened, the impact of the explosion is massive and is still ongoing. Many Japanese people are migrating to other countries and numerous academic papers have pointed that the entire Island is hugely affected by the radioactive produced by the explosion. Japanese government is busy hiding the truth, it's officially forbidden that Japanese people measure the radioactive and publish the result on the internet. |
Not All Its Cracked Up To Be

Not for me
by Gordon Hyslop • 30th July 2014
“I didn't notice any difference in any of the claimed criteria It was messy to make and in my opinion didn't taste good, more like taking medicine. Love the other products though” |
not worth it
by nick • 23rd May 2013
“this stuff isnt worth your time, says on the tin 'gives you a 4-6 hour boost' more like a taste of dung in your mouth for 4-6 hours, your better off saving your money and getting some organic green tea bags from the shop that you will feel the boost and will be kinder to your wallet” |
