Kiln Matcha

Kiln Matcha may be Baan Kang Wat's best kept secret – or maybe that’s because it’s as hidden as anything gets in this hugely popular craft village. What we’re saying is that it’s  easily overlooked, tucked away on the second floor of the more popular GRAPH cafe – a ying-yang contrast to the caffeinated connoisseurs below. 

The story behind their matcha is exactly the kind of authenticity that makes the drinks so good. They drove through rice paddies and forests to reach Hoshino – a quiet village often cited as one of the most beautiful in Japan – and sourced their tea directly. Their careful consideration and expert craftsmanship comes through in every sip, which makes their slogan feel exactly right: not just matcha cafe, but ‘a curator of moments’ – maybe it’s time you had yours? 

Baan Kang Wat. 9.30am-6pm, closed Monday.
