This was a very fun experience! Make sure you eat breakfast before though. The barista was able to answer all of my pressing matcha questions, and I was surprised by the little snack at the end to top things off. Overall, I would highly recommend this experience if you are curious about matcha and want to spend time with a top tier Matcha Master!

If you're even slightly curious about matcha, this is a fun and enriching experience. The matcha barista and expert is of course very skilled at what he does. In addition, he was also willing to entertain our questions and hear about our preferences and thoughts on the best ways to showcase the depth and richness of high-quality matcha. Just don't expect that your at-home matcha lattes will instantly turn out as good as his!
