Switching from coffee?

If you're curious what the fuss is about, matcha gives you the same caffeine as coffee, released more slowly, for steadier focus without the peaks and dips. Worth trying alongside your usual flat white.

Hi, I'm Maddie

I found matcha while travelling, then went looking for the best of it in Japan. Okumidori, grown in Mie prefecture, is the one I kept coming back to, smooth, naturally sweet, nothing like the bitter stuff I'd tried before. This is the tin I put my name on. Monty is quality control.
