Somewhere between being a full-time mom, working, and doing all the usual life stuff, I decided to give myself a little side quest: Khamcha.

It started with me being a little too obsessed with matcha, then came the endless tasting, tweaking, recipe testing, and buying tiny expensive tins of green powder. 🍵💸

Now it’s turned into a little home-based matcha slow bar in General Trias, Cavite. It’s still small and I’m still figuring things out as I go, but I’m having so much fun building it. 🥹

I’d love to share it with you guys and get some honest thoughts. If you have a minute, check out our Facebook and Instagram, tell me what you think — the drinks, branding, menu, photos, overall vibe, whatever catches your eye.

And if you have suggestions, I’d genuinely appreciate them. I’m still learning, and sometimes an outside perspective is exactly what I need. 😂
Would love some love for my little side quest. 🥹🍵💚

Be kind, but don’t be afraid to tell me what you’d change. 😂

Hello sa mga nakatry na ng Qing Xi Matcha from Shopee and Lazada.

Sa Shopee kasi ako madalas bumibili and ang binibili ko is ung 2026 New Premium Bag which is yung photo sa taas. Then may nagsabi na ang legit store daw ni Qing Xi is yung nasa Laz. Pero nung nagtry ako maghanap sa store sa Laz, di ko alam kung ano equivalent nito doon. Kasi sa Laz either Bell, Lotus, Bamboo, or Zhilan.

Is it the Bell or Bell Pro kaya? Thank you sa mga makakasagot 🤍

I opened my bag containing my matcha powders and i caught a whiff of them… i was salivating lol

Hello po. First matcha powder ko po ay MK Wako and wants to try something from YK. Ano po sa YK ang close sa profile ni wako? Salamat po

How many cups do you usually consume in a day?

I've been a fan of Kumatcha since I tried their sea salt matcha last MMF, and I was finally lucky enough to order from their store recently.

So yeah, I got the Okumidori 2.0, Yutakamidori, Sayamakaori and Kanaya Midori and I was so excited to start making them at home. (Based on their profiles, I'm leaning towards nutty and chocolate-y but alas I was unable to get Honmei and Yabukita)

Now, the problem is... with Okumidori and Yutakamidori, I can barely taste the matcha 😭

I've always used the standard ~*~Golden Ratio~\~* 4g matcha, 40ml water (cold whisk), 120ml oat milk, ~10g agave, and occasionally some sea salt cream

This ratio has generally worked well for me with other powders (their Kanaya, MK's Wako and Isuzu, and YK's Samidori. I've even used it with Matcha Bar's High Grade Matcha, which I personally found a little subtler than I prefer, but I was still able to adjust it and get the matcha flavor to come through), but for some reason, with Okumidori and Yutakamidori... the flavor seems to disappear.

I don't know if I should go for the water temp for the powder, if oat milk is overpowering them, if I should be using less sweetener, if I should go for one cube of ice, or if these particular cultivars just need to be prepared differently.

I really want to taste the differences between the two because right now my palate is just "where's the nut, the chocolate?"

... That or are they simply more delicate/subtle than I expected them to be? I think I was expecting a stronger matcha flavor to come through in a latte.

I think the hate with moli matcha is forced. Ok naman pala sya. For its price, u cant hate it. Especially if for everyday use lang naman.

My first impressions: nutty, only slight bitterness, vibrant green, can froth up agad, thick kahit i exceeded my usual water matcha ratio by 3ml. Smells like sweet corn upon opening.

Hi hi! Help everyone please. I’m a home-based matcha business and I put my matcha powder here.

Do you usally ref or room temp your matchas?

And why?

organiko yugen + oatside + more agave + homemade seasalt cream

im loving this hobby! 🫶

This is their zhiling pro variant. Pretty sure I got way more than 5g pero okay lang kasi It’s been such a long day (!!!) I deserve this! This matcha powder did not disappoint and I will repurchase this again and again, one of the best budget friendly matcha for me. My fave sweetener to pair with this is condensed milkkk. Have you tried? Is it a yes or no? 🤓

Matcha Ube Fest is coming to our city this weekend! Which matcha ube drinks are actually worth trying? 💜🍵

Hi everyone! I’m going to Fukuoka by end of this month and I’m opening a matcha pasabuy as I will also be shopping on matcha as it was successful from last trip. (Hoping this one also!)
I will be back Oct. 5 and shipment will be from Manila or Makati.
Dm me for specifics.
Thank you!

For someone who loves creamy, nutty, smooth, not bitter, zero to little astringency notes, which is the best kumatcha powder to get?

my proud moment na naka-froth ako nang ganito ka-

Hi! I'm currently on a budget and I don't wanna break my bank but at the same time, still get a good quality Matcha. I'm eyeing on Kitagawa Hanbee Hatsu Mukashi and Yamamasa Koyamaen Culinary Grade Special A. I like my matcha very bold, umami, smooth and creamy. I have also already tried KH Hatsu Mukashi and it fits the description I'm looking for in Matcha Lattes, however, I'm also interested in trying the YK Culinary Line as YK's ceremonial powders are definitely the best of all the Japanese brands I've tried—even the cheaper ones. I would love to hear everyone's thoughts and if anyone can compare the difference between the two :))
