Sorate
About
Reviewers often describe it as the best in the city, noting its rich and umami flavor. However, some find the taste to be too grassy, not everyone's preference. The Soku cultivar, with its nutty taste, is appreciated by many, while others report that the matcha was grainy and poorly mixed. Matcha lattes with oat milk and agave are a great unique experience for those seeking something different. Long wait times can be an issue, but the quality of matcha itself often outweighs these drawbacks. The atmosphere can feel chaotic at peak hours, lacking clear organization or warm service. Still, Sorate's commitment to authenticity in its Uji Matcha collection is widely acknowledged. Guests appreciate the chance to see ceremonial grade matcha made with care and precision, making it a place where tradition meets innovation.
