Murray is joined by Andrew Forsyth-Thompson, the founder who built one of Cape Town's most talked-about brands, Nice to Matcha, on a foundation of authenticity and community.

Andrew's story is anything but conventional. It didn't start with a love for tea - it started in the world of corporate finance. A chance encounter with a bustling matcha bar while on a work trip in Germany sparked an idea that would completely change his path. He launched a brand with a simple purpose: to focus on an exceptional product and create authentic, human connections that make people feel seen and loved.

He dives deep into his unconventional journey, from starting the business with just R20,000 to transforming a former fried chicken shop into a viral sensation without spending a single cent on social media. Andrew gets real about balancing the grind of a side hustle with his consulting work , the power of faith in his decision-making , and the incredible growth that led to selling 80,000 matchas in just ten months.
