OSULLOC Tea House Haeundae — Restaurant in Busan

A modern matcha and tea shop that serves really good matcha soft serve and a variety of other desserts.

It is mainly a tea shop so there are loads of souvenirs you can buy for your friends back home.

Love that you can smell the sample tea leaves before buying, honestly every tea concoction they have was great, do note their tea bags did indicate there is some artificial flavorings to it but we tried out the free samples as well, the flavour was on point, and so we also ended up with quite a bit of purchase there, nice pick me up tea or morning to start the day with it.

They also sell matcha cookies and biscuits too, which seem to be a popular item.

Now on to the dessert, there are 2 floors and also some outdoor seating as well.

We tried all 3 varieties of soft serve, verdict was matcha was the best for adults while the kids love the vanilla option. The texture is firmer than other soft serve we have tried and matcha flavour was strong yet not so sweet.

We managed to get some matcha powder after our ice cream, and plan to make our own version of matcha latte at home.

Tax free is available so all the more great to get some. Did I tell you they also sell room diffuser too, the scent was so fresh that I can’t help to get one for my home, recreate a piece of memory of busan...

Can’t go wrong with their green tea drinks. Ordered a Matcha Shot Vienna and a Matcha Shot Coffee Vienna. Recommend the Coffee version as you get more contrast from the Green Tea and the Coffee. I also recommend not to mix the drink as you can taste the contrast better. After I was 2/3 done I mixed it and I could hardly taste the coffee.

The Green Tea cheesecake has that ordinary cheesecake flavour, there’s a hint of matcha with a thin crust at the bottom.

Card payment accepted. Toilet was super clean also. They were running a promotion at my time of writing and were giving out free merchandise. We got a pair of small Osulloc tea cups (think espresso...

Though not a matcha connoisseur, I think the Jeju matcha is a different type of matcha from what you get in Japan/Kyoto. For one, you can tell by how deep the green is.

The soft serve has a different texture, more ice cream bar than melts in your mouth creamy. Though the tea flavour is pronounced, I tasted more cream than matcha. Same goes for the matcha latte. I ordered the savoury one and wished it had more tea than oat milk. Probably should go with just the matcha itself.

My friend got the brewed tea and that was refreshing and surprisingly good. Recommend the brewed tea on its own though...
