Starbucks Japan Premium Mix Matcha Latte 4 Sticks

Starbucks Japan Premium Mix Matcha Latte 4 Sticks is a Japanese instant matcha latte mix produced by Nestle Japan under the Starbucks Japan license — delivering the smooth, creamy matcha latte flavour associated with Starbucks café drinks in a 4-stick instant format for home or office preparation. Distinct from standard matcha powder; the Japan-domestic Starbucks Premium Mix uses the specific matcha-to-milk ratio and sweetness calibration of the Starbucks Japan café menu product.

• Japan-domestic Starbucks license production — not the same formulation as Starbucks products sold outside Japan
• Premium matcha-to-milk ratio — calibrated to the Starbucks Japan café matcha latte standard
• Instant stick format — dissolves in hot or cold water/milk in seconds
• 4 sticks — gift-appropriate quantity; popular as a Japanese café souvenir for matcha enthusiasts

Japan Starbucks Premium Mix vs standard matcha powder: Standard instant matcha powder mixes are unsweetened pure matcha for customisable preparation. The Starbucks Premium Mix is a pre-calibrated matcha latte formulation — sweetened, with milk solids included — specifically designed to replicate the Starbucks Japan café experience without café preparation equipment. For a Starbucks Japan flavour reproduction at home, this is the closest available product.

Known in Japan as ネスレ プレミアムミックス 抹茶ラテ 4本入.

Nestle Japan produces the Starbucks Premium Mix under the Starbucks Japan licensing arrangement, targeting the Starbucks Japan cafe matcha latte standard rather than the international Starbucks matcha standard. Japanese Starbucks matcha is consistently rated as more genuinely matcha-forward than in most other markets. The 4-stick format is the standard gift pack for travel souvenir or hospitality purposes.
