BioTechUSA 100% Pure Whey 900g – Strawberry Matcha Latte

BioTechUSA 100% Pure Whey in the limited Collector's Edition Strawberry Matcha Latte flavour — 900g, 32 servings, 20g of protein per shake, made with real matcha green tea powder.

Please read before buying — this protein contains caffeine

Unusually for a protein powder, this one contains caffeine. The matcha green tea powder is the third largest ingredient in it.

  • High caffeine content — 50.4mg per serving (20.2mg per 100ml made up). Not recommended for children under 18, or for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
  • EGCG content is 168mg per serving. Do not consume 800mg of EGCG or more per day, and do not take it on the same day as other green tea products.

Two servings a day puts you at roughly the caffeine of a small coffee, plus 336mg of EGCG. If you already take a pre-workout or a green tea supplement, count this in your daily total.

Concentrate and isolate together

Pure Whey is a blend of whey concentrate and whey isolate rather than one or the other. The isolate lifts the protein and lowers the lactose; the concentrate keeps the price sensible and the texture fuller. At 71g protein per 100g it sits between a straight concentrate and a pure isolate.

BioTech add L-glutamine, L-arginine and bromelain. We list them because they are on the label, not because we can tell you what they do — none holds an authorised health claim in Great Britain. The same goes for the matcha: we can tell you it is there and how much caffeine it brings, but not that it does anything for you. The protein claims above are the ones that stand up.

Strawberry Matcha Latte

A limited Collector's Edition run — 6% real matcha green tea leaf powder with strawberry. Earthy and sweet rather than a straight fruit flavour. When it is gone it is gone.
