Starbucks Matcha Shortage 2025. While one can never be 100% sure with starbucks production, matcha is an incredibly popular item, and there is no plan to discontinue as far as i’m aware. Matcha is a popular japanese powder that is high in antioxidants.
I explained to everyone one day that we had a nationwide shortage and the next day morning crew ordered 6 boxes of matcha thinking we’d only get 1 box. In the past month, leading japanese matcha producers such as marukyu koyamaen, ippodo tea and ocha no kanbayashi began imposing restrictions on the number.
