300m from Euljiro 1-ga Station. A large four-story matcha specialty cafe in Myeongdong that grinds organic tea leaves grown on Jeju Island and coffee beans on traditional millstones in-house. The signature matcha milk tea delivers a rich, full-bodied matcha flavor and arrives in distinctively oversized, wide-rimmed cups with a generous fill. The roasted green tea milk tea carries a deep, toasty profile close to a hojicha latte in character, and the Earl Grey milk tea earns consistent praise for its intensity. The soft-serve ice cream balances sweetness against pleasant bitterness, ranking among the most requested items through warmer months. The millstone americano comes in two varieties: one with bright acidity and another with drip-style depth, both benefiting from the exceptionally fine grind produced by the stone. Sugar levels are adjustable across all beverages, and desserts such as strawberry tiramisu round out the menu. The Korean retro interior provides ample photo-worthy corners throughout, and the space spans four floors served by both stairs and elevator. Upper floors tend to echo, making the ground level preferable when conversation matters. Conveniently positioned near Euljiro-ipgu Station, this cafe draws a steady mix of Seoul residents and international visitors and stands as one of Myeongdong's most recognized matcha destinations.
