Pure Chimp Super tea review
Monday, July 14, 2014This is a sponsored post.
Last week I got an email from a company called Pure Chimp. They specialise in all sorts of 100% natural skin care products and macha green tea. I was offered this amazing tea to review, and as green tea has amazing health benefits, I wanted to hop on board and try it out!
This is how the tea is described as on the Pure Chimp website:
- High quality grade matcha green tea from Japan
- 137x antioxidants of regular green tea
- Improve your skin from within
- Caffeine without the anxiety
- Anti-ageing properties
A US study found that consuming matcha green tea can increase thermogenesis from a normal 8%-10% of daily energy expenditure, to between 35% and 43% of daily energy.
Basically you will burn more calories by drinking matcha green tea.
How to use: Mix 1/2 a teaspoon (1 gram) with 30ml of juice/water/milk for a super shot or mix with hot water & honey for a hot tea.
It sounds really incredible, doesn't it? The tea comes in powder form, which really surprised me (in a good way!). The thing that usually bugs me with tea is that you have to wait for several minutes before it's actually good to drink, but this is literally just a matter of mixing it up with hot water (or a small dash of liquid for a super shot) and that's it.
I think my favourite part of this tea is the COLOUR! Oh my goodness, the colour of the powder is the most vivid green I have ever seen, it's so beautiful that I just kinda wanted to look at it for ages. It just shows how pure this stuff actually is, you just couldn't get that kind of colour out of something that was chemically enhanced.
As I'm pretty used to drinking green tea, the taste of the Super tea really didn't surprise me. It's a bit more earthy than most teas I've tried, but that's in no way a bad thing at all! I do load my tea and coffee with sweetener though, I'm guessing the taste would be somewhat bitter in it's "natural" state.
Overall this tea is insanely good! Beautiful, herby and woody taste and the colour just makes me want to stare into my mug every ten seconds. I had quite a bit of the powder in the bottom of my mug so it kinda worked as that super shot, and oh my it made me shiver! :D It really packs a punch, bound to wake you up in the morning..
You can purchase the tea from the Pure Chimp website, and right now it's on sale at £14.95 (usually £16.95).

I like the taste of green drinks, if you have ever tried a shot wheat grass juice, you know exactly what I’m talking about! On the other hand, there are few people like me, who like the taste of Green supplements.
