1 shop serving modern matcha sweets in Shimokitazawa.
Shimokitazawa·Shimokitazawa Station·4 min
A Japanese tea specialist run by the Oyama family, whose head holds the tenth dan, the highest grade awarded to Japanese tea appraisers. After 51 years in the old Maruwa Center, the shop moved in October 2021 to reload, the low-rise complex built on the former railway land between Shimokitazawa and Higashi-Kitazawa. It is best known for matcha kakigori made with Marukyu Koyamaen matcha from Uji, and it sells that matcha by the tin alongside sencha and gyokuro. Retail runs from morning, but the tearoom service is takeaway and opens only in the afternoon, so timing matters. Summer waits are common.
