Matcha is widely regarded as a unique treasure in Montreal, celebrated for its high quality, authentic flavor profiles, and creative menu items like the popular Iron Matcha and Avocatcha. Visitors frequently describe the space as a warm, cozy, and artistic environment that reflects deep passion and craftsmanship. Many guests appreciate the educational aspect of their visit, noting the dedication to tea culture, the use of house-made ingredients, and the insightful conversations shared about tea preparation. While experiences with the service vary, the majority of patrons find the atmosphere inspiring and leave feeling that the visit was a memorable, worthwhile discovery for any matcha lover.
Randomly went here due to my friend searching google maps on our visit to Montreal. No pictures because we were too busy chatting with the owner about sweetened vs. unsweetened matcha, Chinese tea, & the tea scene in Montreal. Owner was kind enough to give us unsweetened versions of our drinks to try when we mentioned that we like our drinks without sugar. Delicious 😋
My boyfriend & I were here in Montreal for a dragon boat race two weeks ago. I found this place from a recommendation & was determined to try out the matcha drinks! We got the iron matcha & hojicha choco & they both did not disappoint the slightest bit. The decorations were lovely & cozy (he also has beautiful paintings). Nestor was so kind & nice & friendly & you could tell how passionate he was in curating the best & most healthy drinks for his customers, getting the best ingredients from all over the world. During our chit chat he even offered some delightful snacks (best date with cashew ive ever had!!) & mini drinks of cermonial matcha & jasmine tea (also the most fragrant & delicious jasmine tea ive had). It was a great experience & we promise to come back if we ever visited Montreal again. Or let us know if you ever open a place in Vancouver haha!
Amazing drink, good vibes, & good view. I talked with the owner. He is really passionate about what he is doing, & his knowledge about teas in general & matcha in particular is wide, so he could have the best option for the customer. I highly recommend the Jasmatcha if you love a drink that is not sweet & has a light scent of jasmine.
Heard about this tea house from the media & the lasting impressions of the general public, so decided to give it a go (as a matcha enthusiast myself). I was impressed. Nestor is definitely one who shows his passion, even his stories about his travel & craft have been quite inspiring to say the least. I left a visual review on my insta which he has seen as well. I am really glad to have given this a try on my last day in Montréal. Worth every minute & cent spent. More power to you & your cafe, Nestor :)
We have been to many cafés & tea houses in Montreal, but this is our all-time favourite teahouse for matcha. Nestor is a master of his craft, & his knowledge of tea truly inspires us to learn more about the art of tea-making.
We especially enjoy the iron matcha & order it on every visit. That said, there are many options to choose from-ranging from traditional serving styles to more refreshing & creative blends.
We always leave feeling recharged & refreshed, & we learn a new fun fact about tea with each visit.
On our endless search for the finest matcha, we took a delightful chance on a mysterious, intimate tea room. They quickly exceeded our expectations, showcasing an impressive selection of organic matcha & a variety of enchanting Japanese & Taiwanese teas.
What makes this tea room unique is its dedication to matcha drinks-not the traditional lattes you often come across, but rather thoughtfully crafted beverages that celebrate the rich flavors & qualities of matcha in their purest forms. We were particularly taken with the presentation; our drinks were served in sleek glass bottles to go.
We decided to try the Ironmatcha, infused with the warming essence of cardamom, which created a bold yet comforting flavor profile. The Jasminematcha was equally captivating, as fragrant as it was delicious, highlighting the delicate notes of jasmine.
We were pleasantly surprised by the pumpkin seed milk, which was just incredible. Its earthy, nutty flavor paired harmoniously with our matcha selections.
Additionally, the tea room featured a charming boutique with an array of tea-related items, from exquisite tea sets to premium matcha tools, allowing visitors to take a piece of their experience home.
Interestingly, this place doesn't seem to engage with social media, as we discovered a humorous sign stating'no TikToks' inside! It only added to the authenticity & allure. It's clear that the focus here is on creating a genuine & intimate experience rather than cheap marketing.
Our visit was a delightful adventure, & we couldn't resist sharing the wonderful experience we had. This tea room is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates the artistry of matcha & the tranquility of a serene tea experience. 🎋🍵✨
charming cozy tea house! the tea tasting is a must! I personally loved the jasmatcha & couldn't help but order more! looking forward to stopping by again
Such a great locally-owned matcha spot! The owner really knows their stuff when it comes to teas, & you can tell they genuinely care about the products they sell. The milk for lattes are homemade! I love stopping by for a quick chat & always end up learning something new about tea.
