Meet Mel & Mimi

Two friends from Vietnam and Thailand who fell in love with matcha and want to bring good flavors to Helsinki.

Mel · The flavor maker

Mel creates our flavors, from the house made strawberry jam to the ube and coconut blends.

Mimi · The whisk master

Mimi has the best skills behind the bar: the perfect whisk and the perfect layers. She is also a balloon artist.

The idea

We bring the matcha bar to your guests.

Whisked live

Premium Japanese matcha, prepared by hand in front of every guest.

Fits anywhere

A matcha cart of 1 to 2 m² and one power outlet. Set up in under an hour.

Two ways to book

We sell to your guests, or we cater your event as a prepaid package.

Matcha is a destination in Europe

Helsinki · Community

Matcha Crew

Started in Finland, now in five European cities, with drinks, workshops and events.

London · Craft

MATCHADO

Four calm cafés since 2019, tea sourced directly from Japan, desserts and retail.

Berlin · Urban energy

Matchasome

Freshly stone milled matcha in a bold café made for social media.

Our gap: None of them come to you. We bring the craft and the color into your lobby or event, with no build out for the venue.
