Common questions

Is Matchaful Kiwami Super Ceremonial Matcha healthy?

Matchaful Kiwami Super Ceremonial Matcha scores 14/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Does Matchaful Kiwami Super Ceremonial Matcha contain seed oils?

No. Nothing in Matchaful Kiwami Super Ceremonial Matcha’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".

How processed is Matchaful Kiwami Super Ceremonial Matcha?

Matchaful Kiwami Super Ceremonial Matcha has no NOVA group.
