Kofe Black Coffee vs Matcha Collagen: Which One's Right for You?
Nathan, Founder · 18 August 2026 · 4 min read

Both blends are £39.99 on a flexible plan, both carry 10g of marine collagen per scoop, and both come with the gift set. The difference is what sits around that collagen — and how the cup tastes.
the formulas side by side
Black Coffee: 10g marine collagen, 3g creatine monohydrate, 2g MCT powder, 80mg vitamin C, 150mg caffeine from Colombian coffee.
Matcha Collagen: 10g marine collagen, 2g Japanese ceremonial matcha, 500mg Lion's Mane, 250mg Chaga, 1.2g MCT powder, added vitamins.
black coffee: the training pick
If you lift, run or train regularly, Black Coffee is the more obvious fit — it's the one carrying the creatine, and it has the bigger caffeine hit at 150mg per scoop, roughly comparable to a standard cup of coffee.
It tastes like a smooth dark roast. If your morning already revolves around a strong black coffee, this is a straight swap.
matcha collagen: the gentler morning
Matcha Collagen is the softer, greener option. The caffeine comes from ceremonial matcha rather than coffee, so it's a lighter pour, and it brings the functional mushroom blend with it.
It suits people who don't get on with coffee, who find strong coffee too sharp first thing, or who simply want something that isn't brown.
taste, caffeine and timing
Black Coffee is roasted, full-bodied and best hot. Matcha Collagen is grassy, slightly sweet and excellent iced. Neither has added sugar.
If caffeine late in the day affects your sleep, Matcha Collagen is the easier afternoon drink of the two.
still not sure? take both
Plenty of people run Black Coffee on training mornings and Matcha Collagen on rest days. Both come with 60 days to try them, so picking wrong isn't expensive.
