Ritual Matcha Whisk

„More and more people kept asking me when Dakys would finally have matcha. But I hesitated. Everywhere I looked, shelves were empty or filled with low-quality powders. For 8 or 20 euro you could buy something that might work for baking, but definitely not for drinking. I knew that if I ever brought matcha into Dakys, it couldn’t be just another one. It had to be several levels above everything else on the market.

Matcha is one of the healthiest drinks in the world. It has a profound impact on energy, focus, and recovery, and it is packed with antioxidants. But for me it was clear: if I was going to add it to our performance drinks, it had to be extraordinary. Not just on paper but in real life.

So I went searching. I tasted 112 samples from growers across Japan and then compared them with the best-selling brands available in the Czech Republic. In total, I tested over 120 different matchas. For weeks my office was covered in green dust, bowls and bamboo whisks scattered everywhere. My team thought I had gone completely mad. But then came the moment I had been waiting for.

We discovered a matcha that stood out completely. The taste was smooth and rich in umami, the texture silky, the aroma fresh and clean. Most importantly, the effect on energy and focus was noticeably stronger for everyone on the team. Compared to this matcha, all the others felt like cheap imitations.

That’s how Dakys Performance Matcha was born. We source it directly from a Japanese farmer renowned in his region for producing exceptional matcha. And what is rare even in Japan, our matcha is certified organic. It is packed directly in Japan to preserve its freshness and full potency. A drink that is not just a trend but a true ritual for energy and focus at the highest level.“
