Matcha Magic

This is a new spot I had been wanting to try. When trying a new place, I usually get their “flagship” item; in this case, that was the Magic Matcha Latte, which they classified as a “potion” (hmmmm). Anyway, it was just your regular matcha with lion’s mane and cordyceps (???). I looked up cordyceps online, and it seems very questionable. The matcha itself was ceremonial grade, and unlike most cafés, I think this one was truly ceremonial grade. Does it matter? Not to me. But I still thought it was notable.

The ambience was not the best, granted it is a new spot. It felt kinda dead, and continuing from my last review on Aden, this is definitely not a spot to lock in and do your homework. Overall though it’s great matcha to take out haha. If you are reading this and work at Matcha Magic, ignore this review I am retarded and the place is great :)
