Clearspring expands Japanese tea bag range

Clearspring has added four new Matcha Blends to its Japanese tea bag range.

The new flavours include Matcha Ginger, Matcha Three Mint, Matcha Genmaicha and Matcha Turmeric (RRP: £3.69 for all). The flavour combinations work with the subtle notes of Matcha to enhance consumers’ authentic Japanese tea experience.

The Matcha Blends join Clearspring’s existing tea bag varieties including Japanese Sencha, Genmaicha, Hojicha and Kukicha. The brand’s entire tea range is organic, non-GM, free from added sugar and free from any artificial ingredients and preservatives.

The tea bag range is also getting a packaging refresh, with a bright and clear new design-style. The packaging is also entirely sustainable as the tea bags are compostable and non-GM, the string is made of organic cotton and the outer carton is made of recyclable FSC certified paperboard and printed using vegetable-based ink.

Maria Dawson, director at Clearspring said: “The demand for Matcha has grown immensely over the past few years. Our matcha blends have been launched to meet this demand, whilst adding something exciting with new flavor combinations.

“Fans of Matcha can now start their day with a refreshing and uplifting Organic Matcha Three Mint, have a warming Matcha Ginger or Matcha Turmeric midday tea and finish theday with a more soothing Matcha Genmaicha.

“This launch is another big milestone for Clearspring in our mission towards sustainable packaging. Sustainability is an increasingly important factor for shoppers, and we want to do everything we can to meet this challenge, whilst continuing to innovate and deliver great tasting products.”
