In the first half of this one-hour class, we’ll cover matcha fundamentals including health benefits, how to select quality matcha, understanding grading, and proper storage to keep your matcha at its best. In the second half, you’ll step into the practice itself: learning how to properly whisk and prepare matcha at home. We’ll guide you through traditional preparation, as well as sharing an easy technique for crafting a balanced matcha latte. Using our house-favorite matcha, each participant will whisk their own bowl, gaining the confidence to recreate the experience anytime.
