Antioxidant packed and vividly green, Rebel Chocolate’s Matcha Japanese Green Tea chocolate could be ‘the healthiest chocolate ever’.

Rebel Chocolate, in collaboration with Tempo Tea Bar, has introduced a new bar which claims to include three servings of Matcha per bar, 20% protein and 40% less sugar.

Matcha, the cult green tea packed with antioxidants and supposedly bursting with other health benefits has been ‘tweaked’ into a version of Rebel Chocolate’s high protein white chocolate.

As with all Rebel Chocolate’s chocolate, it is also free from lactose, gluten and palm oil and comes with claims of being ‘the healthiest chocolate ever’.

Neil Robson, co-owner of Rebel Chocolate said: “We are all about the marriage of great taste and innovation so when Liam and his team from Tempo Tea Bar came to us with the idea of incorporating Matcha into our white chocolate I was intrigued. I knew Green Tea was a good source of antioxidants, but when I discovered Matcha contains more than 10 times the amount of antioxidants compared to standard Green Tea, this really got my attention​.”

The new bar is available from Tempo Tea Bar (either in Glasgow or Edinburgh, see www.tempoteabar.com ) or from Rebel Chocolate​ directly.
