Matcha Cafe Maiko
Matcha Cafe Maiko – Canada– I’m a big fan of Matcha as many people can guess. I had done a review on them before when it first launched it’s Canadian store here in Richmond. Their taste and quality is definitely what stands them out from the rest of the Matcha players in Vancouver. Their matcha can only be sourced from Japan to ensure consistency and the deep umami flavour from the tea leaf. So I was super thrilled when the cafe launch their summer item – Shaved Ice Matcha. A wide disc with matcha ice, mochi and red beans topped on it with a serving of Matcha ice cream. I was so shocked on the portion size and how much you get for the item. It was really huge! I was told by the owners that it’s best to use a straw to drink and to mix the bottom of the ice since it can be bitter or too strong for some people to handle. I loved every minute of it since it’s so picture worthy and portion wise – you need at least another person to share this with you. You can’t go wrong with this item. Enjoy the Summer with this treat!
