Kettl Hollywood

About

Kettl is a Japanese tea company that started in New York and works directly with growers in Japan. This Hollywood Blvd shop is a tea room and store: matcha whisked to order, sencha, hojicha, and a counter-style matcha omakase tasting, with teas from different regions on the wall. It's calm inside, and you can buy loose tea and teaware.

Jasmine says

A tea house from Brooklyn
that turned a corner of Los Feliz into Kyoto.

Pure tea, a matcha omakase,
and a whole tea wall of origin notes.

If you want to seriously understand matcha,
start here.

Pure tea, a matcha omakase and the calm of a tea museum.

Insider tips

To drink seriously, book a seat at the matcha omakase counter.
The origin notes on the tea wall are worth reading slowly; this is a museum of tea.
Take a matcha popsicle to go and eat it strolling the Los Feliz streets.

Jasmine’s notes

Kettl · Hollywood Blvd / Los FelizIf you want to seriously understand matcha, start here; the origin notes on the tea wall are worth reading slowly. First time, and want to taste the tea itself? Start with Kettl. In my book, the best matcha in LA. There's a four-seat tasting bar you can book on Resy. A Japanese tea house from Brooklyn where you choose the origin of your latte matcha and it's whisked to order; the four-seat tasting counter is booked on Resy.Order: A seat at the matcha omakase bar
