In coffee shops, the combination of matcha and espresso is called a dirty matcha. Vegan Barista Whey Matcha puts that same idea in a shaker and adds plant-based protein: a vegan protein coffee with fava bean protein, 7 percent real instant coffee and matcha powder. The tub contains 908 grams, enough for about 30 servings. For those who prefer their protein shake green, plant-based and just a little different. And because the base is the same as the Vegan Classic, you already know in advance that the shake mixes creamily.
Matcha is finely ground green tea, and in this variant it is simply listed as matcha powder on the ingredients list, alongside the instant coffee. The taste is exactly what you hope for: a soft, slightly earthy green note over a creamy coffee base. The coffee provides the roasted depth, the matcha rounds it off with something fresh and green, and sucralose keeps the whole thing subtly sweet. Anyone who occasionally drinks a matcha latte but does not want to miss out on the coffee no longer has to choose. Even the color betrays the mix: not standard coffee brown, but a soft green tint that fits just as well in your feed as in your shaker. You control how strong the matcha comes through: with cold water, the shake remains light and fresh, with a creamy oat drink it shifts towards a matcha latte. Purists who whisk their matcha ceremonially will smile, but this is also the quick sports version of that ritual.
The protein comes from fava bean protein isolate, extracted from fava beans (also known as broad beans). That isolate contains 89 percent protein and brings a 30-gram serving up to 24 grams of plant-based protein, more than the whey versions in the same line. Regarding protein: proteins contribute to an increase in muscle mass and to the maintenance of muscle mass. In addition, proteins contribute to the maintenance of normal bones. Unlike the regular Barista Whey, which is based on whey protein from milk, this version remains completely plant-based: no milk, no lactose, no soy. So no lactase is needed either. For your daily total, such a serving counts nicely: anyone aiming for around 100 grams of protein per day fills almost a quarter of that with a single shake.
The label states approximately 80 mg of caffeine per serving, coming from the real coffee. That is comparable to a cup of filter coffee. Good to know: green tea also naturally contains caffeine, although the manufacturer does not provide a separate value for that. So treat this green protein coffee like you would treat a strong cup of coffee: great in the morning or early afternoon, less convenient in the late evening. Compared to a double espresso, which easily reaches 120 to 130 mg, a serving remains on the quiet side by the way. For the same reason, the product is not intended for children, pregnant women, or women who are breastfeeding.
Vegan Barista Whey Matcha aims at a few groups at once. Vegans and people who avoid milk get a milk-free protein coffee. Matcha lovers get their latte moment with up to 24 grams of protein included, where a regular matcha latte barely provides any protein. And athletes who are tired of their umpteenth cup of coffee simply get something new in the glass. Shaken cold with water or an oat drink, the taste comes out best; warm is also possible, as long as you stay below sixty degrees. By the way, in an oatmeal bowl or smoothie, the powder gives a striking green twist to your breakfast. Many people wonder if such a vegan protein coffee also works without a shaker: with a milk frother or blender it is just as easy, and lumps get no chance. So this vegan protein coffee is just as versatile as its whey brothers, but without animal ingredients.
In short: this is the most distinctive flavor of the Barista family. Fava bean protein, real coffee and real matcha in a 908-gram tub. If you want the same plant-based base with a pure coffee flavor, look at the Vegan Barista Whey Classic. That way, you can simply get your coffee shop moment from your own kitchen cabinet from now on.
Matcha powder is listed as a separate ingredient and, together with 7% instant coffee, forms a dirty matcha profile.

No milk, no soy and no animal ingredients; an allergen declaration is therefore missing from the label.
Comparable to a cup of filter coffee; the matcha also naturally contains caffeine, without a separate label value.

Like a dirty matcha from the coffee shop: the roasted coffee flavor forms the base, and the matcha adds a soft, slightly earthy green note on top. The green character is clearly present but not overpowering. Prepared with oat milk, it becomes a creamy matcha-coffee latte.
Yes, matcha powder is listed as a separate ingredient, alongside 7% real instant coffee. The green colour and the tea notes therefore come from the matcha itself; the added flavour only supports the overall profile.
The label indicates approximately 80 mg of caffeine per serving, which comes from the coffee. Green tea also naturally contains caffeine, but the manufacturer does not specify a separate value for this. Therefore, treat a glass as a full cup of coffee and preferably do not drink it right before bedtime.
For the protein. A matcha latte from the coffee shop barely provides any protein, while this shake offers up to 24 grams per serving from fava beans. Plus, you can prepare it in half a minute with just a shaker and cold water or a plant-based drink.
Protein extracted from faba beans (broad beans) and then concentrated to 89% protein. It is a plant-based alternative to soy and pea protein, with a mild taste. This means that in the shake, you mainly taste coffee and matcha, not the protein source.
Only the taste. Both are based on fava bean protein and 7% real coffee, but Matcha contains extra green tea powder for a fresher, green twist. If you want a pure coffee taste without frills, the Vegan Classic is a better fit.
