ZenSha started with a simple idea, born from a family trip to Japan and a love for matcha.
After coming home, we kept adding matcha into our protein shakes, chasing that clean energy and calm focus. But the process was messy and inconvenient — and getting high-quality matcha in New Zealand was hard to find and often expensive. That’s when the idea clicked: why not create a premium blend that brings the best of both worlds, matcha and protein, in one simple scoop?

We’re three year 13 students from Nelson College who set out to create something better, a product that’s clean, effective, and made with the needs of everyday people in mind. So we created ZenSha: a blend of high-quality Japanese matcha and New Zealand whey, crafted with care right here in Nelson.

Simple as that, just high-quality matcha and protein in one.
