NEWS FROM OUR partner

I write to you with matcha news for the hospitality trade from Japan, where I recently visited the families who grow tea and matcha for us, for the 2026 harvest.

While in Kyoto, I visited several of the tea rooms and matcha houses to bring you the latest developments from the tea capital of Japan.

The most important observation for the hospitality trade is that the tea rooms are filled with tourists from all over the world coming to experience Japanese tea culture; and they're not ordering strawberry matcha lattes or gingerbread matchas. They're drinking usucha (the proper Japanese way of matcha in 70ml water) with a small sweet. They're buying new season leaf teas. They’re engaging authentically with Japanese tea culture and learning about how leaf tea and matcha should be drunk.

Seeing this, we need to be ready in the UK for customers that expect a higher level of authenticity when it comes to matcha and tea. This will be East Asian guests who are already knowledgeable, and also guests from all over the world who have visited Japan or seen content online and now have a higher level of knowledge and expectations. They know how it’s supposed to be done.

We will be faced with an increasingly educated customer who expects Japanese standards from the hospitality industry.

We have been supporting the FBMA since 2019. We’re here to support you, with all the skills you need to delight your guests, and exceed their expectations. You can email Médéric ([email protected]) to arrange a matcha tasting and education session for you and your core team.

Kind regards

Introducing . Our latest partner for the F and B Managers Association of London.

BE WTR is redefining premium hydration for the hospitality industry through a sustainable and locally driven approach to water. Combining advanced engineering with a deep understanding of gastronomy, BE WTR delivers still and sparkling water with a refined, neutral profile designed to complement hospitality experience at the highest level.

Built for modern hospitality, the brand operates through two complementary solutions. Its compact urban bottling sites produce and bottle water locally in reusable glass bottles, reducing unnecessary transport and avoiding the emissions associated with manufacturing new glass from scratch.

London’s soon-to-launch bottling site is located just six miles from the city centre, ensuring water travels only the distance needed to supply restaurants, hotels and venues across the capital.

At the heart of the model is circularity. BE WTR bottles follow a closed-loop journey through delivery, use, collection and refill, helping hospitality partners reduce waste while maintaining a premium guest experience. Since inception, this circular system has helped save more than 38,000 tonnes of carbon emissions.

Alongside its bottling operations, BE WTR’s patented filtration systems transform on-site water into exceptional still or sparkling water with consistent purity and balance in every serve.

As a certified B Corporation, BE WTR is committed to the highest standards of environmental and social impact. Working closely with leading hospitality partners, the company is helping shape a more responsible future for premium water – one that combines elegance, performance and sustainability without compromise.

The UK has a 20% rate of VAT, which is one of the highest rates for hospitality in Europe. It’s the second highest, in fact. Only Denmark is higher.

Most of our competitors have a much lower rate. In Germany, it’s as low as 7%. France, Italy and Spain have a 10% rate.

Lowering the rate of VAT for hospitality is the single most important thing the Government could do to support our local pubs, restaurants, cafes, hotels, and many more.

It would be a huge boost to the great British public, too.
