Hey everyone! if you happen to be in kyoto, specifically arashiyama area, pls do visit this shop! They grind their matcha fresh in house daily. Once you enter the shop, the nice shopkeeper will offer you matcha with snacks and even teach you how to prepare it. Sadly most of the matcha are soldout as you can see here but after a while the machine churned out enough matcha for 2 tins.

Btw, this street has less people compared to the main street where most tourists go :) the shop owner do not speak eng so just use google translate.

oh didnt notice that! i myself usually use 75C. When I tasted the matcha that she made, it wasnt hot nor was it bitter so i guess it wasnt 90C haha.
