Ceremonial Matcha at Tala

In a world of quick fixes and instant gratification, our ceremonial matcha service offers something different: a moment of mindfulness, a connection to centuries of tradition, and an unparalleled sensory experience.

What Makes It Ceremonial

Ceremonial grade matcha is the highest quality available. The tea leaves are shade-grown for weeks before harvest, increasing their chlorophyll content and creating that vibrant green color. Only the youngest, most tender leaves are selected and stone-ground into an ultra-fine powder.

The Traditional Preparation

We prepare each bowl individually using a bamboo whisk (chasen) and ceramic bowl (chawan). The whisking technique creates a smooth, frothy consistency that releases the tea's full flavor and aroma. This isn't just about making tea — it's about being present in the moment.

The Experience

When you order ceremonial matcha at Tala, you're invited to slow down. Watch as your matcha is prepared, notice the vibrant color, appreciate the earthy aroma. Each sip is an opportunity to taste notes of umami, slight sweetness, and a clean, grassy finish.

It's meditation in a bowl, and it's waiting for you at Tala.
