Who is Matcha Union?
Matcha Union is a London brand founded in 2020 by Louisa Birkhahn, working directly with growers in Uji, Shizuoka and Yame. The name refers to the union of tradition and modern ritual.
Its range pairs cultivar-named matcha with flavoured versions and matcha chocolate, shipped worldwide from warehouses in the UK, Germany and the UAE.
Smooth full-bodied Shizuoka matcha made for lattes and iced drinks
Matcha Union Premium Grade Matcha is a 100g Japanese green tea powder made for matcha lattes, iced matcha, and daily drinking. It comes from Shizuoka, Japan, the country’s largest tea-growing region. Samidori and Yabukita cultivars from first- and second-flush harvests give it a smooth, full-bodied profile with a fuller, bolder flavor that holds its own with milk.
How does this Shizuoka matcha work with milk?
The flavor profile is tailored to milk-based drinks. Its full body and bolder character remain present in a hot or iced latte, while the smooth finish suits regular use. It can also be whisked with hot water, blended over ice, or frothed into a morning latte.

What is in Matcha Union Premium Grade Matcha?
The sole ingredient is 100% Japanese matcha powder imported from Japan. It has no added sugar and no additives. This makes the flavor of the matcha itself the basis of each drink, with milk, water, and ice added according to the intended preparation.
How should this matcha be prepared?
Add one teaspoon, or 2g, of matcha to a cup. Pour in 60ml of hot water at 70–80°C and whisk or froth until smooth. The water should not be boiling. For a latte, add 200ml of milk. For iced matcha, pour the prepared matcha over ice. These quantities provide a specific starting ratio for both hot and cold drinks.
How should the 100g pack be stored?
Keep the matcha in a cool, dark place before opening. After opening, store it in the refrigerator and use it within one month for the best flavor and color. The 100g format is intended for daily drinking and repeated preparation of lattes or iced matcha. Worldwide shipping is offered.
Shizuoka is Japan’s largest tea prefecture, producing 40% of its tea, with mountainous terrain and shading methods that deepen matcha’s umami.
