Had the flight with different combinations, from Ceremonial Matcha to some other refreshing flavours. It was fantastic! Loved the ambiance & great service! Would definitely go back when visiting Montreal again!
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.
On ne peut que saluer la volonté d'authenticité de l'établissement, les produits sont faits maison & cela se sent. Je ne mets pas 4 étoiles car le service peut être vraiment long. De plus, les laits maison peuvent être très riche & un peu difficile à digérer si vous n'en avez pas l'habitude. À découvrir si vous n'êtes pas pressés!

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. 🎋🍵✨
The owner (I'm just guessing) is super nice. He seems not to be super friendly in a way of hyperactive, just a calm, non-chatter person. When we told him that it's our first time, he explained to us with a very nice attitude. Even after that, we had 3 servings for the ceremonial matcha, & he had some takeout that needs guidance to the menu also after we ordered, which can be quite time-consuming, he was still very soft spoken. He asked some follow up questions to update with us if everything was ok, some small talks but didn't invade our space at all. Overall, it was a great chill time-spending spot. The drinks were good of course.
Love the tasting menu. It's best to come when you're thirsty because it'll fill your stomach up. Relaxing space, spend your time to chill while waiting for him to make the ceremonial matcha is the best. The dates with the avocado mix is absolutely a wonderful combo with the bitter drinks. We had to buy a box of dates to eat at home with his mixture of the avocado thingy because we were so addicted to it. Definitely coming back to try the rest & buy some more dates with that avocado mix (still don't know what to call it. House sauce?)
