Built for the 2-5 p.m. slump.

Your first coffee is a ritual. Your second coffee can feel like a compromise: too late, too heavy, too much. This is a lighter afternoon coffee alternative for the hours that still matter.

1

Real lift

40mg caffeine gives the tab a noticeable afternoon use case without turning it into a full coffee serving.

2

Smoother feel

80mg L-theanine supports the calmer positioning behind a tea-powered reset.

3

No second cup

No brewing, line, shaker, or large drink at 3 p.m. Just one tab from your desk or bag.

Focus without the frenzy.

This is not an energy drink in tablet form. It is for people who want to keep working clearly without using the second coffee as a blunt instrument.

The brand owns a higher-value emotional territory: calm ambition, self-control, and clear afternoon output.

FAQ

Clear answers for the second-coffee moment, without stretching the claims.

Is this meant to replace my morning coffee?

No. It is designed for the second-coffee moment, especially the afternoon slump when you want a lift without another full cup.

How much caffeine is in one tab?

One tab contains 40mg caffeine. Two tabs provide 80mg. Follow label directions and avoid late-day use if you are caffeine-sensitive.

Why add L-theanine?

L-theanine is part of the smoother-energy positioning. The formula uses 80mg L-theanine with 40mg caffeine per tab.

Why Yuzu Matcha?

Yuzu creates a bright citrus finish, while matcha gives the product its tea-powered identity. The flavor is designed for afternoon clarity, not candy or breath-mint positioning.

Is it sugar-free?

Yes. The product concept uses a sugar-free base with real matcha and yuzu citrus flavor.

What should the brand avoid saying?

Avoid medical claims, sleep claims, cognitive-performance guarantees, and disease-related language. Keep the claim focused on caffeine content, afternoon lift, and smoother alternative positioning.

Own the second-coffee moment.

The winning position is not tea candy or a generic focus supplement. It is the simplest shortcut: when you want a second coffee, take a matcha tab instead.
