Eastern tea soul. Western richness.
Tradition, refined into a single sip.
Ours was spent beside a children's hospital in Los Angeles, at the Ronald McDonald House. There, an empty coffee pot and a tired mother stayed with us.
Years later, a cup of matcha in Japan felt like healing. Our son fell in love with milk tea. At home, Hui began testing recipes.
The old has gone, the new is here. That is our first green.
Taiwanese and Japanese milk-tea craft, blended with US grass-fed fresh milk. The pure character of matcha, kept intact.
Shizuoka matcha with our own pistachio milk. A soft, savoury note meets matcha's gentle bitterness, in a Nile Green colour.
