Why VFuel
Designed for the long haul.
Fast, Sustained Energy
Maltodextrin and dextrose deliver rapid carbohydrate energy through dual absorption pathways, designed to support steady output throughout extended efforts — not just the first 30 minutes.†
Real Matcha Powder
Matcha Green Tea Powder is included in every pack — not a synthetic green tea flavoring. Matcha contributes its characteristic earthy profile and naturally occurring plant compounds alongside the performance formula.
Amino Acid Complex†
Every pack contains L-Citrulline, L-Ornithine, and Taurine — amino acids studied for their roles in endurance performance, circulation support, and post-exercise recovery processes.
MCT Oil Included
Medium-chain triglycerides are included alongside carbohydrate sources, providing a fat-based energy substrate that metabolizes differently from long-chain dietary fats.
Electrolyte Support
Magnesium Chloride and Potassium Chloride are included to help replace key minerals lost through sweat during prolonged activity.
Made in Japan
Every batch is manufactured in Japan under strict quality standards, with a 24-month shelf life. Matcha sourced and produced in the same country as the world's finest green tea tradition.
Usage Guide
When to reach for Matcha Green Tea.
Trail & Ultra Running
The subtle, earthy flavor tends to stay palatable across very long efforts — particularly favored by athletes who find overly sweet gels difficult to stomach in the later stages of a race.
Morning Training & Early Starts
Matcha's familiar profile makes it an intuitive choice for early-morning efforts when more assertive flavors can feel out of place.
Cycling & Gravel
Works well alongside VFuel Drink Mix for a complete on-bike fueling strategy. The understated flavor pairs cleanly across extended ride durations.
Flavor Rotation Strategy
Matcha's neutral-earthy profile makes it an ideal contrast to the fruit-forward flavors like Cool Citrus or Mountain Berry across a long race day.
Suggested Timing
Target 30–60g of carbohydrates per hour during sustained efforts. Pair with VFuel Drink Mix to reach higher intake targets on long race days.
Transparency
Everything in the pack, and why.
Matcha Green Tea uses real Matcha Green Tea Powder — not synthetic flavoring — giving it a genuinely earthy profile that holds up well across repeated servings. Like all VFuel formulas, every ingredient is selected for a specific performance or palatability role.

FAQ
Common questions.
Yes. Matcha Green Tea Powder is included in the formula — not synthetic green tea flavoring. The characteristic earthy, slightly vegetal profile comes from the actual powder rather than from flavoring compounds designed to mimic it.
This product is manufactured in a facility that handles milk-derived ingredients. FDA labeling requirements mandate that allergen declarations reflect the processing environment. No milk is intentionally added to the formula, but the processing environment cannot exclude the possibility of trace exposure. Anyone with a dairy allergy should avoid this product.
Matcha shares the same maltodextrin-dextrose carbohydrate base and amino acid complex as the other VFuel gels. It stands out for its real Matcha Green Tea Powder ingredient and its earthy, non-fruit flavor profile. At 140 kcal per pack, it sits between the 114 kcal citrus-based gels and the higher-calorie Cafe Mocha and Maple Bacon variants.
We strongly recommend consuming each gel with 4–8 oz (120–240 ml) of water. Water helps dilute the concentrated carbohydrates, supports absorption across the intestinal wall, and keeps the formula from sitting heavily in your stomach. Taking gels without water during exercise is a common cause of gastrointestinal distress.
Yes — VFuel gels and drink mixes are designed to complement each other. The drink mix provides approximately 190 kcal per pack with high-concentration electrolytes; combining with a gel every 45–60 minutes can help you meet the 60–90 g/hr carbohydrate targets recommended for events lasting over 2 hours. Both products use non-fructose carbohydrate sources, so they stack cleanly.
