Wrongheaded News & Tea

You can think of The Tea Tapes as what something would look like if a journalist moved to Japan and opened an e-commerce company.

Because that's exactly what it is.

"My typical day starts at the coffee shop where I drink a latte with two shots of espresso. Afterwards, I go the salon to work and make a cup of Tea Tapes Matcha. It keeps me going through the day unlike black teas I've tried. Plus, it's creamy and delicious."

"I can code for hours on this stuff. I become an avid matcha tea drinker after being a long term espresso coffee drinker. The clean refreshing 'buzz' keeps me alert for hours without the jitters."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"When I tasted The Tea Tapes matcha, I said, 'that’s it, that’s the flavor that I’m looking for.' It’s a jolt of energy, it’s like full-body energizing, not just mind. When I drink matcha, I’m ready to go climb. And my customers like it for the same reason."

- Rafael M., Owner, New Meadow Coffee
