[19th April | Mumbai] Whisk Theory: Introduction To Matcha Workshop

Date: Sunday, 19th April 2026 Time: 10.00 AM - 12.00 PM Location: Subko HQ Tickets: INR 595/- A hands-on deep dive into the craft, ritual, and technicality of matcha. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a seasoned drinker, this session is designed to build your confidence in preparing the perfect bowl at home. The Session Breakdown Origins & Grades: A look at how shade-grown cultivation and processing define flavor. We’ll clarify the divide between ceremonial and culinary grades and why it matters. The Anatomy of the Ritual: An introduction to the essential kit—the Chawan (bowl), Chasen (bamboo whisk), and Chashaku (scoop)—and the specific role each plays. The Method: A technical demonstration on the physics of the whisk. We’ll cover everything from sifting for consistency to the specific wrist-work required for a stable, creamy froth. Tactile Practice: Move from theory to the bowl. Under our guidance, you’ll whisk your own matcha, focusing on the rhythm and texture that define a high-grade emulsion. Sensory Evaluation: A calibrated tasting to explore the pillars of quality: umami, natural sweetness, and a clean finish. The Pairing: To close, we’ll serve a Matcha Escargot—a house-made spiral croissant filled with matcha pastry cream—to see how these flavors translate into the bakery. The Takeaway: You’ll leave with the practical skills to store, prepare, and integrate the matcha ritual into your daily life. Who should attend: Our workshop is open to all, regardless of your level of expertise. Whether you're a complete novice or already have some experience with matcha, our workshop will cater to your needs and expand your horizons.
