YUZU x Isshiki Matcha Introduce the Limited-Edition Yuzu Strawberry Matcha for a Wellness-Focused Valentine’s Day

This Valentine’s Day, YUZU is making self-care the ultimate love story with its #SelfCareWithYuzu campaign, and it all starts with the perfect match(a). In collaboration with Isshiki Matcha, YUZU is unveiling a limited-edition Yuzu Strawberry Matcha, available throughout February at Isshiki Matcha’s NYC location at 138 2nd Ave, Inside Moko, New York, NY 10003.

Blending the bright citrus of yuzu, the earthy richness of ceremonial-grade matcha, and the delicate sweetness of strawberry, this exclusive drink is designed to infuse self-care into everyday moments. Rooted in the traditions of Uji, Kyoto, Isshiki Matcha is known for bringing a moment of tranquility to New York’s fast-paced energy, making it the perfect partner for YUZU’s campaign celebrating intentional well-being and connection.

On February 14, YUZU and Isshiki Matcha will bring this collaboration to life with a special Valentine’s Day self-care event at Isshiki Matcha’s NYC location. Guests can enjoy a complimentary Yuzu Strawberry Matcha by showing their YUZU profile, enter a raffle for a YUZU Matcha Bowl Set, and participate in a charitable initiative supporting the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation. Designed as a space for mindfulness, connection, and well-being, the event invites attendees to take a pause from the chaos of everyday life and embrace self-care as a shared experience.
