Ahmad Tea London - "Slim" - Lemon, Mate & Matcha Green Tea Infusion

To create this special blend, our Tea Masters combine mate and matcha teas. Mate – the national drink of Argentina – is an invigorating brew made from the leaves of the yerba holly bush. Matcha, on the other hand, is a type of Japanese green tea, made by grinding premium tea leaves to powder. Both teas are known to help speed up metabolism, which can contribute to healthy weight loss. To complement their grassy flavours, we also add spearmint, nettle and lemon balm, which creates a vivaciously fresh and cleansing brew. Finally, we fortify the blend with natural zinc, an essential mineral that contributes to normal carbohydrate metabolism. It’s the cherry on top for this slimming blend. The Great Taste Award judges also loved it, praising it for being "delightful". They awarded it one star, describing it as a "rounded, sweet, bright infusion, warming and uplifting.

Ahmad Tea is a UK-based family business, drawing on four generations of tea blending and tasting experience. Founded on a passion for the finest tea, we are dedicated to the unique place that tea drinking commands at the heart of daily life in Britain and beyond. When the company was established in England, we felt that people desired an exceptional infusion which could be enjoyed every day. The selection of our first plantations and partners, our initial blending and tasting, and even our early packaging – all were driven by a commitment to meet this need. To this end, we were also one of the first companies to present tea in ways that emphasised its worth, offering it in beautiful gift packs, exquisite tins and charming caddies. Over the years, as our reputation grew and our reach spread, it became equally obvious that people throughout the world shared this desire for a cup of tea that was much more than simply refreshment, but an enjoyable, memorable and satisfying experience. Early in the life of Ahmad Tea, our Managing Director promised, “I will not sell anything that I would not drink at home.” This refusal to accept anything but the finest teas – primarily in terms of their flavour, aroma, strength and consistency continues to guide our tasters and inspire our entire company. Ahmad Tea is renowned for the quality of its teas across the globe, and yet remains a family business, true to the vision that founded it.
