Calling all matcha enthusiasts!
From March 14 to 16, matcha lovers can head to the Glorietta Activity Center in Makati City for the Souk pop-up Matcha Festival, a three-day event that brings together matcha purveyors, artisanal bakers, and lifestyle brands celebrating the Japanese green tea.
The event will feature everything from traditional ceremonial whisked matcha to matcha-infused desserts and pastries from participating beverage brands like Hojichan, The Matcha Co., Matchanese, Matcha House of Lipa, Sari Matcha Bar, and Waypoint Sip, to name a few.
The festival will also feature a market offering premium match powders, whisking kits, and ready-to-drink lattes, as well as limited-edition items such as matcha pastries, “matcha-misu,” and savory matcha dishes.
From fragrances to local apparel, a selection of lifestyle products will also be showcased, alongside photo installations and a photobooth.
The event runs all weekend from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Admission is free!
