Experience Matcha Brewing at Nana's Green Tea

Nana's Green Tea, a global cafe brand backed by Nanaha Co., Ltd., is excited to announce a unique promotion that brings together the excitement of baseball and the rich culture of Japanese matcha. From March 6 to 19, visitors to the Jiyugaoka location will have the chance to brew their own matcha, connecting with traditional Japanese tea culture in a hands-on experience.

This initiative coincides with an international baseball tournament that has sparked enthusiasm for a unique celebration pose inspired by the art of making matcha. For 25 years, Nana's Green Tea has been dedicated to showcasing the beauty of matcha, and this new initiative reflects their passion for uplifting Japan’s culture through tea.

During this period, customers who order the exclusive "Matcha with Kinako Chocolate (Hot)" will have the opportunity to use a tea whisk (chasen) to prepare their own cup of matcha. Normally, staff prepare each cup, ensuring that every drink meets the highest quality standards. However, on weekdays, customers can step behind the counter and immerse themselves in this cultural experience.
