Twinings Cleanse Matcha, 20 Tea Bags 40g
Worth noting: Cleanse is the product name, not an effect Teas.co.uk claims. Twinings describes the cup as vegetal matcha with sweet fennel seed and fresh citrus notes; I am treating that as the maker’s description, not our own tasting trial. This is a green-tea blend in tea bags, not loose matcha powder. It contains caffeine, but the current pack gives no exact caffeine amount. I make no daytime, metabolism, digestive, focus, cleanse, detox or other wellbeing claim.
Twinings Cleanse Matcha, in brief.
Twinings Cleanse Matcha is a lemon-flavoured green tea blend with matcha, fennel and added manganese, supplied as 20 individually enveloped tea bags in a 40g box. The current formula is Green Tea (36%), Fennel Seeds (26%), Matcha (15%), Natural Lemon Flavouring with Other Natural Flavouring (8%), Dandelion Root, Lemon Peel (6%), Manganese.
Twinings describes the cup as vegetal notes of matcha with sweet fennel seed and fresh citrus notes in a bright, fresh blend. This is attributed manufacturer wording, not a Teas.co.uk tasting trial.
Use freshly boiled water and infuse one bag for at least 3 minutes. The product contains green tea and matcha, so it contains caffeine; no product-specific caffeine amount is claimed. Twinings currently labels it vegan and sugar free.
Claim boundary: “Cleanse” is the product name. Teas.co.uk does not claim cleansing, detoxification, metabolism, digestive, focus or other wellbeing effects. The current authorised pack statement is: Manganese contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Product boundary: “Cleanse” is Twinings’ product name. Teas.co.uk does not claim that this tea cleanses or detoxifies the body, changes metabolism, aids digestion, improves focus or provides another wellbeing effect.

Nutrition and manganese
For a 200ml serving brewed for 3 minutes, Twinings declares 7kJ/2kcal, 0g fat, 0g saturates, less than 0.5g carbohydrate, less than 0.5g sugars, 0g protein, 0g salt and 0.5mg manganese (25% reference intake). The current authorised statement is: Manganese contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress. This does not support a broader metabolism, cleanse, detox or wellbeing claim.
Dietary, packaging and storage boundaries
Twinings currently labels the blend vegan and sugar free. Check the current UK pack if allergens or cross-contact matter; Teas.co.uk does not infer gluten-, dairy-, nut-, wheat- or soy-free status solely from the ingredient list.
The current manufacturer page describes the tea bags as plant based and certified industrially compostable, the carton as recyclable and the foil wrap as recyclable at larger supermarkets. Follow current pack and local-authority guidance. No broader plastic-free, sourcing, certification or environmental-superiority claim is made.
Use the best-before and storage directions on the current pack. No fixed post-date safety, freshness window, daily ritual, morning, post-meal or occasion recommendation is claimed.

The story behind Twinings
Twinings has been blending tea on London's Strand since 1706, the same address, three centuries later. Holders of the royal warrant for tea since 1837, they're the brand most-associated with Earl Grey, English Breakfast, and the polished afternoon-tea aesthetic. Wide flavoured-tea range; ethical sourcing through the Twinings Community Needs Assessment programme.
Packaging: Follow the current UK pack and local-authority guidance; components can require different disposal routes.
