The luxury ice-cream brand wanted to put an accent on the Japanese origin of the new matcha flavor with a playful twist. The main objective of the campaign was to launch the highly anticipated Japanese matcha flavor in mainland China while increasing the brand’s awareness in a particularly competitive market. This was the first flavor created specifically for the Chinese market.
