Ingredients explained
Hydrolysed Collagen Peptides
Collagen provides strength and integrity to the structural protein matrix found in skin, bones, ligaments, tendons and cartilage.
Collagen loss is a natural part of ageing which occurs from our 30’s and increase as we grow older. Our hydrolysed collagen peptides are a specific size (under 5000DA’s) for maximum absorption and efficient integration into targeted cells.
This incredible functional mushroom has long been used in ancient cultures, including Traditional Chinese Medicine to nourish your vital energy or “Qi’ thanks to it’s powerful antioxidant properties. Now widely studied for its cognitive benefits, managing stress, balancing mood and supporting your natural immune defences, we love this nootropic. Our finely milled lion’s mane mushroom powder is certified organic with absolutely no preservatives or additives. Our mushrooms are expertly grown indoors in temperature-controlled greenhouses to ensure the plants absorb no pollution and remain pure. We always ensure we use 100% fruiting body for a full spectrum of nutrients.
You can find our Organic Lion's Mane Mushroom in our Matcha + Collagen blend, created to help bring you focus in your Rise Ritual.
Matcha
Matcha, derived from the leaves of Camellia sinensis, the same plant used to produce green tea, is grown and harvested in a way that leaves it enriched with powerful antioxidants and other health-promoting nutrients like Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) Matcha offers a natural and clean caffeine source, without the jitters due to its rich content of L-theanine, an amino acid that provides a sense of calm against the stimulating effects of caffeine on the body's nervous system. Research has shown that the L-theanine in matcha works synergistically with caffeine, promoting a feeling of relaxation and mental clarity, helping to foster a state of tranquillity and alertness. Drinking matcha tea can also promote and protect collagen synthesis in the skin.

MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides)
MCT’s are readily utilised for cellular energy production and easily convert into ketones which may provide an alternative energy source for brain cells.
Rest assured our True MCT oil is sustainably sourced 100% from coconuts, never from palm oil, and is extracted using pure steamed distillation and gentle hydrolysis to contain C8 (60%) and C10 (40%).
A clear, odourless, and tasteless oil to easily fuel-up your day. A popular Brave Recipe is the morning ritual of adding True MCT to your morning coffee (or tea) for an invigorating start to the day.
You can also find MCT oil powder in our Radiant Collagyn. GMO and solvent free.
Moringa
Moringa has been used extensively in traditional medicine practices such as Ayurveda for over 4000 years. This tropical plant species, native to the Himalayan mountains and parts of India and Africa, is often called ‘Nature’s Multivitamin’ as it contains an impressive range of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and comes packed with over 90 protective compounds, including , flavonoids, isothiocyanates and phenolic acids. Best known for reducing inflammation, fighting oxidative stress and detoxifying your body - moringa makes a great addition to morning rituals. High in fibre, it can also help you to feel fuller for longer. The leaves have been harvested, dried at low temperatures and milled into a fine powder to create our vibrant, organic Moringa powder.
You can find our bright moringa powder in our delicious Matcha + Collagen blend, created for the perfect morning Rise Ritual.
Cinnamon
Originating from Indonesia and China, cinnamon is a tree bark and has been important both as a culinary spice and as an Ayurvedic botanical for centuries.
Researchers are uncovering how this aromatic spice may help support the mechanism that help regulate blood sugar balance and its natural sweetness helps reduce the need for added sugar.
There is something incredibly comforting about the naturally sweet flavour and aroma of this beautiful spice and for this reason, we’ve included our beautiful organic cinnamon to Cacao + Collagen and Cacao + Reishi
Matcha and collagen create a powerful synergy for skin health. Collagen boosts skin hydration and elasticity, while matcha’s antioxidants rejuvenate, protect against UV damage, and brighten the complexion. Together, they promote firm, glowing skin - radiance from the inside out.
Lions Mane - carefully sourced
Our Lion’s Mane is sourced from China, where it has been valued for centuries as both a delicacy and nutritional powerhouse. Grown indoors in temperature-controlled greenhouses, our 100% fruiting body mushrooms stay pure and pollution-free, benefiting from China’s expertise in mushroom cultivation and research.
Power without the crash
Matcha’s natural caffeine and calming L-theanine provide steady energy without jitters, while collagen’s protein supports sustained release. Added cinnamon helps balance blood sugar, further stabilising energy levels. Combined, this blend offers a smooth, lasting lift, ideal for focused, balanced energy throughout the day.
Green detox power
Known as 'natures multivitamin', Moringa is a brilliant addition to your morning ritual, supporting detoxification with its rich supply of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. Greens like moringa promote liver health, aid digestion and support energy production, making them an important foundation for overall wellbeing.
Ceremonial grade
We’ve upgraded to ceremonial grade matcha from Uji, Kyoto, Japan, renowned for centuries of expert cultivation. Shade-grown, hand-picked leaves deliver richer EGCG antioxidants, deeper green colour, and mellow umami flavour. Every serving of Matcha + Collagen now offers elevated antioxidant potency, superior taste, and the full benefit of this exceptional, whole-leaf matcha.
FAQs
What kind of matcha do you use in Matcha + Collagen?
We’ve made a powerful upgrade to our Matcha + Collagen blend, switching to ceremonial grade matcha from Uji, Kyoto, Japan – a region world-renowned for producing some of the highest quality matcha on earth.
With this upgrade to ceremonial grade matcha, we are delivering a higher dose of EGCG, matcha’s most powerful antioxidant, as well as a superior flavour and elevated benefits.
WHY CHOOSE CEREMONIAL MATCHA OVER GRADES
Considered the highest quality green tea, ceremonial-grade matcha powder is made from young tea leaves that have been handpicked from shady Japanese tea fields. By incorporating the benefits of ceremonial grade matcha into Matcha + Collagen, we are delivering a higher dose of EGCG - matcha’s most powerful antioxidant, as well as a superior flavour.
WHAT TYPE OF COLLAGEN IS IN MATCHA + COLLAGEN
Featuring our signature True Collagen peptides, every serving of Matcha + Collagen contains 3g of hydrolysed Type I collagen peptides. This means that you can enjoy Matcha + Collagen alongside other Ancient + Brave products that contain collagen, such as True Collagen and Wild Collagen.
WHAT IS LION'S MANE AND WHAT ARE ADAPTOGENS?
Adaptogens are herbs and mushrooms that help your body build resilience against the negative effects of stress and anxiety. The benefits are wide-ranging and best seen when consumed regularly. Lion's Mane is an adaptogenic mushroom which has been shown to improve cognitive function, enhancing focus and mental clarity.
WHAT DOES COLLAGEN + MATCHA TASTE LIKE?
Seeking a non-bitter, earthy matcha powder with a sweet cinnamon aftertaste? You've found it. Enjoy a smooth, rich umami green tea flavour, as high-grade ceremonial matcha works in harmony with Lion’s mane and our neutral-tasting collagen peptides.
IS IT SUITABLE FOR PEOPLE WITH CAFFEINE SENSITIVITY?
The ceremonial-grade matcha powder used in Matcha + Collagen contains a low level of caffeine. To be precise, a 6g serving of Matcha + Collagen contains 23mg of caffeine. It is also naturally high in L-Theanine. This balances the effect of this caffeine, making Matcha + Collagen the perfect choice for an energy lift without the jitters.
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME OF DAY TO DRINK MATCHA?
Matcha + Collagen can be enjoyed at any time of day. Prepare a morning Matcha + Collagen smoothie to set yourself up for a day of clarity, or drink a grounding cup of matcha tea in the afternoon to lift energy levels. As even low levels of caffeine can interfere with restful sleep, we do not recommend Matcha + Collagen as an evening rest ritual and encourage you to be mindful of your daily caffeine intake.
CAN I MIX IT INTO SMOOTHIES AND WARM DRINKS?
Yes, Matcha + Collagen can be added to smoothies or warm drinks. To create a matcha tea or matcha latte, mix 1 scoop (6g) with a small amount of hot water (not boiling) into a paste, then pour in milk of your choice. We love adding our favourite unsweetened plant mylk to Matcha + Collagen, but you can also enjoy this matcha with fat, semi or skimmed cow’s milk.
DO YOU NEED TO MAKE IT WITH A MATCHA WHISK?
Matcha + Collagen has been thoughtfully crafted to blend seamlessly into smoothies and warm drinks. To help you create a perfectly smooth matcha, we offer a Ritual Whisk. Beautifully handcrafted, this creates a deliciously frothy Matcha + Collagen and transforms your daily routine into a moment of mindful indulgence.
IS COLLAGEN + MATCHA SUITABLE FOR VEGETARIANS OR VEGANS?
No, our Matcha + Collagen ritual contains our EU-sourced bovine True Collagen; therefore, it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans. To support your collagen needs on a plant-based diet, try Radiant Collagyn, our vegan alternative to collagen which supports your collagen production using a powerful blend of plant-based nutrients, amino acids and antioxidants.
IS MATCHA + COLLAGEN SAFE TO TAKE DURING PREGNANCY OR BREASTFEEDING?
Always consult your doctor or midwife before making changes to your diet when pregnant or breastfeeding. This caffeine product contains Lion’s Mane, an ingredient that has not been extensively studied in pregnancy. Please consider this when deciding whether this ritual is right for you. We recommend caution until more information is available.

Reviews
The best matcha I’ve tried
"The nicest matcha I’ve tried (and I’ve tried a lot) Wish you did a bigger size as I got through this in a week!"
— Poppy H. (5/5)
Delicious but expensive
"Love the taste however It’s hard to review a product after only two weeks. I haven’t noticed any difference in my skin or joints but am hopeful over time I’ll see the results claimed. I do think it’s quite expensive so if results aren’t visible after 2 months I’ll be stopping."
— Sarah W. (4/5)
Matcha & Collagen
"Having liked Cocoa & Collagen. I thought I'd try the Matcha &Collagen and so far I'm not disappointed. During this hot spell in weather. I have been making this cold with ice. Sometimes with milk and sometimes without and i love it"
— Angela A. (5/5)

Love my morning matcha routine
"I have a renewed energy and love for matcha. With half milk and hot water the taste is smooth and rich."
— Michelle D. (5/5)
This my friends is incredibly
"This my friends is incredibly good. Definitely suits me better than coffee. I tend to blend it. Have just bought the whisk though for a gentler, quieter, purer ritual. I would love Ancient & Brave to sell a chawan."
— Pauline O. (5/5)
I’m struggling to drink the
"I’m struggling to drink the matcha because it’s quite earthy. I’ve just ordered oat milk and some syrup just to take the bitter taste away. This is nothing to do with the matcha itself but my personal taste. The matcha will be wonderful once I get the blend right"
— Sam M. (5/5)
Not sure
"I have Long Covid ME/CFS,fibromyalgia and functional tremors. I can’t say I have noticed much difference other than coming out in acne. Tastes good but was hoping for more noticeable benefits"
— Leanne L. (4/5)
Slightly disappointed ☹️
"Overall I am very pleased with the matcha + collagen product. It’s very easy to mix up and also pleasant enough to drink just adding water instead of milk. I am however disappointed that the pack doesn’t match the subscription period I have signed up for - there is only 25 days worth and the subscription is 28 days! Also it would be good to have had a scoop that measured the 6g amount required or at least a line in the 10g scoop in order to get an accurate measure"
— Mrs R. (4/5)
Mixed
"Generally I like it, just find it hard to dissolve / it settles in the bottom of the cup and the matcha flavour is quite weak."
— Lauren F. (3/5)
