Festive Sips Await: Boxcar Bread & Wine Collaborates with KOMA Matcha

This December, Boxcar Bread & Wine in Marylebone is embracing the season with a limited-edition collaboration that blends its neighbourhood charm with the refined artistry of Japanese matcha. Partnering with KOMA, the premium Kyoto-born brand celebrated for its 100 percent organic matcha, the bakery and brunch favourite unveils a duo of festive drinks designed to spotlight the depth, tradition and elegance of Uji matcha.

Sourced from Kyoto’s historic Uji region, where tea cultivation has thrived for more than 270 years, KOMA’s matcha is known for its exceptional quality and vibrant flavour. Boxcar Bread & Wine’s December specials honour this heritage through two thoughtfully crafted serves, each offering a different expression of matcha’s signature earthy richness and gentle umami.

The KOMA Yuki leads the line-up, a velvety warm blend of KOMA matcha, creamy white chocolate and a whisper of nutmeg, finished with a handcrafted meringue stick for a touch of festive indulgence. Comforting and luxurious, it’s a winter warmer that nods to classic seasonal flavours while allowing the matcha to shine.

For something brighter, the Matcha Dream offers a refreshing iced alternative. Here, matcha is lifted with a jasmine tea infusion, rose water, lemon juice and soda, creating a floral, lightly sparkling serve. Dried rose petals and lemon balm add an elegant flourish, making it a crisp counterpoint to the richness of the Yuki. Guests can also personalise both drinks with optional add-ons: an extra shot of matcha or a splash of Irish cream liqueur for the KOMA Yuki, or a measure of gin for the Matcha Dream.

To mark the collaboration, Boxcar Bread & Wine will also host a curated collection of festive matcha gifts. From beautifully packaged KOMA matcha sets to traditional bamboo whisks, each item is wrapped in Japanese-style seasonal packaging, offering Londoners a thoughtful and design-led way to bring a touch of Kyoto into their homes.

Available from Monday 1^st December to Wednesday 31^st December at Boxcar Bread & Wine.

Address: 30-31 Kendal St, St George's Fields, London W2 2AW
