this did not go as planned

[@kel.sharpe]

Props to you for using cardboard packaging!! There is soooo much waste when it comes to PR and product packaging, and most of it is unnecessary - so this is fabulous!! 💚

[@hanimhouri]

i can't wait for this to be available internationally. me in malaysia is rooting for ashley and nami!

[@populationme]

[@chelseag6621]

Future Nami collab with Kevin?? 🧐 That was so sweet of him! Ashley I’m SOO excited for Nami to launch!!! In desperate need of quality matcha ASAP!! 🫶🏻🍵

[@kendrapadilla5690]

[@littlebitsquish00]

hehe coming from the matcha mob and seeing how beautiful everything came out must be so rewarding ashley. so close to the start of something big. your dad is comedic gold.

[@selinaxqing]

how cute is it that the butter yellow of your matcha packaging kinda matches the yellow walls in your house 🥹 full circle moment

[@soy6505]

Ashley!! could u make a matcha refill ~for sustainability~ maybe in like a tringular pouch so its easy to pour into the metal tin? I don’t know how easy that would be for you, but buying multiple metal tins is smth i’m def thinking abt re: sustainability/consumerism!! So excited to try ur matcha ❤ i feel like bcus ive seen u go to the factory and everything so i feel so much better abt getting it! Feel like i can trust u !! ~the parasociality is pulling through for u~

[@soy6505]

Ah or maybe a plastic pouch and u make a funnel 🤔 Im not a business girlie idk!!

[@urmomashley]

Yess! Def on my radar for the future 🫶 for now the tin is recyclable 👍

[@jennydejesus72]

@urmomashley I concur 👍🏽

[@startledraccoon]

I love how much of hard work you put not only on your vids but also your business I think it's impressive wishing you the best ❤

[@selinaxqing]

seeing you with the elastic band in your mouth to film on your phone was so real lmao i love it

[@letsrolloutnyc]

Nami is looking amazing and it’s going to do so well. And Happy Birthday to your DAD. 😎 Kevin is an amazing person and the cups looks amazing.

[@cinefiend4059]

Firstly, we're getting fed with the double dose of Andrew and Ashley vids. Second, I wasn't so sure and I'm not the biggest matcha lover, but the packaging and the overall kit is so beautifully and smartly done. Kudos. Thirdly, the family vibes with your dad and everyone in the family is truly one of the reasons why I've loved you and your sibs' vids for so long. Fourth, that cup is gorgina. Good luck and congrats on such a beautiful product. Looking forward to making it and tasting it.

[@dinakarassane4123]

Oh wow I love Kevin’s glass cup and the fact the white design will pop when the matcha’s inside!!

[@btwiitsmishal]

Please do a matcha tutorial with the matcha package! I would love to know the perfect way to make your matcha!

[@slowrin1]

i’m abt to drop my entire bank acc on this!! the fact that you’re making a full kit with niche touches is so cuteeeeeeee

The energy, the passion, the hardwork love it. You've come such a long way (i've been watching your videos since the beginning of time lol) you inspire me to make a business idea i've been thinking of, a reality. So proudd

[@Lana_win]

It's honestly so cute seeing how similar their dad's expressions are to Amber, especially around 15:27

[@Mimi-fs3eu]

I love how different influencers are launching brands and businesses with things they actually love and care about.😊

[@marisouza2469]

18:34 the way you said “there you go” IM DYING

[@winnieobunabor]

When you expand please don’t forget that your fellow matcha loving fans are in Nigeria too 🇳🇬

I want to be on nami’s pr list 😭💛💛

[@Genesis-cd8in]

[@xaryasharma]

[@alesamaa]

[@thehanaarchive]

so excited for nami! a shame we can’t get it in England yet but looking forward to your success and expansion!! 🍵💚💛⭐️💫

[@Lovelygirlcaitlin]

please make cups that look exactly like the matcha bowl. it would be so cute !!!!

[@meganly3280]

an idea for a separate tin could be a sifter built into the tin?! Maybe you can launch refillable pouches to promote sustainability? which goes hand in hand w the sifter tin

[@hi___m]

I am so happy for you Ashley!! 🥹 the kit looks sooo good and the vibes are literally how you wanted, I also love this aesthetic!! 😍 Your hardwork finally paying off and I have no doubt that your matcha will be the most delicious one 💚

[@ze_multistan_Jay]

So excited for Nami! Love u Ashley❤ Like so frrr the COLOR of the Matcha 🍵 makes me sooo excited every time I see it!!❤ Can’t wait!!!!

[@tanviasija]

Hi Ashley! I just wanted to say how excited I am about your matcha business launch! 🌟 I’ve been following you for ages and have always wanted to try matcha, but I promised myself that my first taste would be from your brand. I’ve also been a member of the matcha mob. Seeing it available only in the USA has been a little heartbreaking, as I’m not there. I can’t wait to support you and finally experience your matcha. 💚 Thank you so much for everything you do!”

[@nateibayjr]

I cant wait to get this matcha set in my hand!!!! Omg my mom is going to love this!!!

[@arlyhernandez9167]

[@Nirupma805]

lovesss to the extra dynamicss

[@e.ram07]

you should partner with kevin and sell the glass!! in diff colors would be awesome too!! xx

[@MelOntheMove02]

You should do the product picture in the woods or flower fields I feel like it matches the nature aesthetic that you’re going for. Sub since day 1, good luck ash!

[@milly2955]

Congratulations Ashley!! So happy you have created something you actually love ❤❤❤

[@lunae6579]

I feel like I’ve been waiting for LIFEEEEE for this matcha to be released, so seeing the tin on the matcha mob with the release month 👀 oooooo me so excited ! I can’t wait 😭😭🤍💚 ⭐️

[@triggeredpotato3870]

[@eggsshellss]

So happy for you ashley I’m emotional

[@jamiekimchi]

a sakura or pink set would be super cute if you plan on doing other colors in the future! 🌸🍵

[@Dee-vd6tj]

i think a lavender bowl with green tea leaves would be so cute 💜🍃

[@shiksharai9304]

Wow, the packaging and whole product is so so nice. Everything’s just perfect❤

[@amehoons]

can’t wait for the launch of Nami! my favorite matcha brand already!! ☺️ in the future, i would love for Nami ceramic cups, mugs or glass cups so i can have Nami branded everything when i drink my matcha 😌

[@jacquelineannq]

the second this is launched… BEST BELIEVE I WILL HAVE MY HANDS ON IT!!!

[@eloise.r]

honestly as an aussie, we are so used to EXPENSIVE shipping for american stores that i doubt you'll have issues with shipping pricing for us.. thought i'd mention that as i know americans arent used to $20+ shipping lol

[@jazminaca5433]

being early to matcha series is my biggest flex

[@Ascurio.]

cant wait for nami to be available in other countries as well! sending love from the philippines!

[@DevonRivera-nm9zc]

You're such a comfort person for me Ashley!!! 💚💚💚🥰🥰🥰

[@sophsayshii]

i think it’d be so nice if later on you incorporated asian flavors into your matcha! like taro, sesame, pandan, etc! i’m soo excited for this launch! 🥳🥳

[@jorellhammond]

Can’t wait for it to be available in Australia 🇦🇺 will definitely be still supporting you and the Nami journey

[@Victoria-JoGapuz]

im soooo proud of u ashley!!!! i can tell this will be successful :’)

[@vibeautyy]

babes you would love the neck-mount for filming, like love the diy with the rubber band but you deserve better 😭

[@evelinafaktorova2864]

Literally this is going to be the namiest matcha ever!!🍵💚

[@youngguru6057]

man i wish i could work for you as a startup, being lost in my career field and laid off, its not only been hard to get a job but to be passionate about the career I chose because of my strict asian parents. I hope you have a huge success with this, as I like seeing people like you going for the hardship risks in opening a business. Hope you can open a shop up in Toronto because the Matcha market here Is absolute trash lol. All the best !

[@colensub]

so proud of you!! all the best for the launch ❤

[@JESSIESGIRL]

you are a queen - slaying the business diaries!!! love this for you 🫂

[@daiimiranda12]

love the color of the Nami Matcha Kit, congrats Ashley 💛💚

[@ashleyg4390]

Ashley! I'm so excited for this!!! I really hope you get to expand NAMI to at least Mexico soon ❤🎉

[@さら-m9f]

So cute! In Japan making matcha casually at home isn’t common so I see a lot of potential that it can be popular in Japan

[@sofullofpho]

I really love the kit idea. I was always intimidated to invest in my own matcha because my funky perfectionist brain is like “i can’t make a proper matcha without all the proper tools”, so for some reason, that always stopped me. I’m definitely investing in the kit! It’s a wonderful idea.

[@JenniferYang]

SO CUTE OMG I'M SOOO EXCITED TO BUY IT!!! I luv matcha so much too!! Congrats and thank you Ashley for creating Nami!! :)

[@rirism888_]

r u kidding me THE PACKAGE IS SO BEAUTIFUL
