You know our best-selling peach matcha you can’t get enough of? Imagine Unsweetened Peach Matcha tasting just like that, only it’s unsweetened. Delicate peaches come together on a bright Matcha Matsu base resulting in a creamier and more flavourful matcha experience. What you’re getting is an L-theanine packed drink that’s noticeably less sweet than other flavoured matchas. We bring the peach, you bring the sugar! Only if you want to, of course…
What makes it great
A peaches & cream matcha made on an energizing & detoxifying base of Matcha Matsu green tea powder from Aichi, Japan.
Matcha is a true labour of love—it’s made by removing the stems and veins of the tea leaves and then grinding the leaf into a fine powder.
Because you’re ingesting the entire leaf, you get 100% of the benefits, plus an energy boost.
How it tastes:
Delicate peaches on a creamy, unsweetened matcha base.
Matcha green tea, Organic peach flavouring, Natural cream flavouring

I disliked the flavoring in the regular peach matcha, but for some reason I’m okay with it here. The matcha whisked up a lot less smoothly than it usually does. The peach is a candylike peach, which was fine. Not a favorite, but a nice idea for those who don’t want presweetened matcha. I even sweeten the presweetened ones, so I had to add an obscene amount of fake sugar here, but I know I like things super sweet.
Somehow I managed to miss writing a tasting note for this tea when it first came out like a month back – oops! I’m really glad that we’re continuing with a gradual expansion of unsweetened matchas though – our first one being the coconut and now a version of our very popular Peach Matcha without the sugar.
I feel like this is pretty much what you’d expect it to be – it’s the same peach flavouring used in the Peach Matcha, though it does come off a little less intense/juicy without the sugar. It’s important to be mindful with unsweetened matchas that they will pretty much always lack the same intensity as a sweetened version because sugar is a flavour carrier and it makes flavouring seem much, much more intense even when the same (or in some cases more) amount is used in an unsweet version. The trade off, of course, is that you get to sweeten to your own tastes (or not sweeten at all) and the rich grassy umami flavours of the matcha itself are a lot more present too.
I will say, because I definitely think it’s worth noting since it’s noticeable in the taste, there is a light cream flavour used in this blend so it’s not really just peach. I wouldn’t go as far as calling this a “Peaches and Cream” flavour, personally, because it’s not anywhere near the same flavour level as the peach. The cream really helps round out the flavour though and gives just a bit more interest and nuance to the profile.
Overall, I like this matcha as lot! Probably more than both the unsweetened coconut and our regular peach. It’s great on its own, but my favourite way to enjoy it lately has been in an iced latte – nothing else added to sweeten it up. It comes off subtle but still really refreshing and distinct when prepared that way.
Friendly reminder that I do not numerically rate DAVIDsTEA blends as I’m currently employed there and it would be an obvious conflict of interest. Any blends you see with numerical ratings were rated prior to my employment there. These reviews are a reflection of my personal thoughts and feelings regarding the teas, and not the company’s.
