We stumbled upon this new matcha spot during their first week and decided to check out their Buy 2 Get 1 Free opening promo—a great deal that let us try the Matcha Latte, Hojicha Latte, and a Matcha Yuzu.
First off, the place itself is absolutely adorable with a super cute Japanese vibe, but just a heads up: it's a tiny spot, strictly for take away only! The staff were lovely—very friendly and offered great recommendations, which made the visit pleasant. They also have a wide variety of things to try, including drinks, ice cream, kakigori, and even matcha nama chocolate for sale.
However, I have to mention the price: at €7.80 per drink, this spot is definitely on the pricier side. Compared to other specialty shops I’ve tried in the neighborhood, their starting price is the highest.
Now, for the drinks themselves, the lattes were a mixed bag. For the Matcha Latte with regular milk, the flavor was quite weak; the milk completely overpowered the matcha, making it almost tasteless. I think they might need to tweak the ratio a bit—especially given the premium price tag. My friend tried the Hojicha Latte with coconut milk, and while she said the smell was lovely, the actual hojicha flavor was very light. BUT, the Matcha Yuzu was the absolute star of the show! I loved how incredibly refreshing it was. You won't get a strong matcha flavor here, but the bright, citrusy yuzu aroma combined with a delicate matcha aftertaste was fantastic. Just a heads-up: it is on the sweeter side since it uses yuzu syrup, so if you prefer zero-sugar drinks, you might want to skip this one.
Overall, it's their first week, and I'm rooting for them. While the ambiance, service, and the Matcha Yuzu make the trip worthwhile, I really hope they rebalance the milk-to-tea ratio on those lattes to better justify that premium €7.80 price tag compared to local competitors. I will definitely be coming back to give some of their other interesting menu...
Read moreAmazing experience ! I didn't know the brand before, but the staff was sooooo nice and they explained me everything I didn't know about their matcha. The quality is really good and I really liked the fact, you can see directly the preparation of the beverages. 😎
Staff members are very polite and welcoming ☺️
I just missed a chair to sit because I wanted to stay longer, as everything look very clean & pleasant. 🥲 But for taking away : this format is well.
I have to give it a try to see if they are as good in the other countries, but for sure, it's gonna be a place where I will definitly come back to taste the other products here in Paris ! I want to try all the ice cream when weather will be better 🤩🤤
I recommend !
J'aime beaucoup : je recommande fortement. Il y a vraiment du choix, et j'ai adoré le sourire et l'accueil du personnel. Le cadre est impeccable. J'y retournerai pour goûter les autres...
Read moreCame in on a whim as my wife was looking for something hot to drink. Matcha is real! We had. Matcha latte and it was prepared in the traditional Japanese style using proper matcha whisk, bowl and technique. Matcha ice cream is as authentic as the matcha ice cream we had when we visited Japan.
Service we received from Adama “man” and Adama “woman” were exceptional! Very professional and hospitable! If your a tourist, they spoke English to us and were very helpful
Definitely recommended this place for authentic...
