This is definitely one of the best places I have been to. Got the matcha marreto. It comes in a big 500 ml bottle. It is very light, flavorful & soothing. The perfect mix of flavors of almond, dates & rice. The owner is very nice & friendly.
The most amazing shop in Montreal! I came here with my girlfriends for my Bachelorette & came across this shop. Nestor is so incredibly sweet, knowledgeable, & the most down to earth person! We got to taste so many teas & had many good laughs. He is also a painter so the shop is decorated with amazing artwork you can buy. I was able to get this masterpiece & am so thankful. You truly feel so wholesome going into this shop. It's an ABSOLUTE MUST for anyone in Montreal! 🤩

Although slightly different from the matcha I am used to, it was a very nice spot to stop in on our walk through Montréal. You can taste the care put into each tea that you are given. Handwritten letters adorn the walls alongside various artwork & tea-making tools, which gives the environment of the shop a very quaint romanticism. My only real complaint was the heat inside the building during the summer, which I found to be a common theme in the city. The owner was very nice, & would even wave to us as we walked by his shop in the following days.
Wooowww qu'elle belle découverte! ❤️🍵& je souhaite qu'il le soit pour de futurs clients. Des saveurs uniques. Endroit stratégique dans un quartier vibrant. Une haute qualité de produits. Cerise sur le gâteau, le tout sélectionnés & servis par un propriétaire passionné & très accueillant. Merci Nestor de nous faire connaître & partager autant de savoir.
Such a welcoming & calming space to be in, the tea is delicious & thoughtfully made. The owner is so wonderful, thank you for the one of a kind experience!
My friend & I popped in a super hot day looking for a refreshing drink. We ordered the cold iron matcha "latte" to go & were pleasantly surprised by the format & unique taste, earthy & subtly sweet thanks to the homemade nut milk. We've thoroughly enjoyed our experience & look forward to going back soon. Merci!
I tried sesame matcha (cold) drink & it was really good. Their matcha comes strictly from Japan, this quality product. The owner was friendly & funny. I will return.
Merci de partager votre passion & votre expertise. Chaque visite permet de découvrir de nouveaux goûts, d'en apprendre davantage sur les thés, & de se gâter avec de nouvelles inspirations, que ce soit pour son propre plaisir ou pour faire un cadeau unique.
Absolutely worth a visit! The owner is incredibly sweet & welcoming. We had the tasting menu & all the teas were delicious, we left feeling full & happy. Thank you for the experience!

Super unique place! The owner offered me to try various teas & drinks he made, & all of them are very delicious & quite unique. I like that all of his drinks are very centralized on the flavor & taste of the tea. If you're someone trying to avoid artificial sweetners & sugar, I strongly suggest this place as I noticed most of the drinks are sweetened with fruits. I also got the Smootcha to-go & am amazed by the deep earthy taste of matcha but none of the bitterness. As a side note, it seems the owner isn't a fan of unprompted photos of himself nor screen usage in his store, so please try to be respectful & minimize usage of it.
Je suis une grande fan de matcha , ce magasin est un vrai paradis ! Le propriétaire Nestor , est vraiment très agréable il aime son métier & ça se ressent dans ce qu'on déguste dans sa boutique . J'ai goûté un matcha lait de citrouille fait maison & légèrement sucré à la date , une exaltation pour les papilles. De plus l'ambiance est zen, & le style bohème est au top. Je suis là pour 10 jours encore je vais revenir c'est une certitude
