Publicity Regarding Matcha Supply Shortage

As you may already be aware, Japan has been experiencing a significant shortage of Matcha. This is driven by a surge in global demand for this green tea powder. The supply challenge is particularly pronounced for top-tier Matcha such as Marukyu Koyamaen and Ippodo, which is precisely the type of Matcha we proudly carry at Tealife.

This underlines the growing appreciation for premium Matcha worldwide, and I can't be happier for this development. However, it also means that obtaining these quality Matcha products has become more and more challenging.

We've been trying as best as we can to secure stock, however, unfortunately, we have also been limited in our ability to get stock.

There has been significant media interest recently, starting with articles on the Straight Times, and then with Channel News Asia and Singapore Press Holdings Lian He Zao Bao.

I recently had the opportunity to discuss this topic in detail during interviews with Channel News Asia, where I shared insights into the rising demand and its impact on the Matcha market. You can find the interviews here:

We'll continue our pursuit to provide authentic, high-quality Japanese Matcha and appreciate your understanding as we navigate these evolving challenges. We really thank you for your continued support!

I have also created a video talking about some of the key points regarding this crisis. Take a look below!
