Matcha green tea served in the tea ceremony is one of those things for which the phrase ‘acquired taste’ was practically invented: even the Japanese tend to grimace when they drink it that way and opt instead for regular green tea or coffee. There is an alternative, though, allowing you to enjoy matcha in a more agreeable way: the latte version, invented either in Kyoto in the 1960s or in the United States in the early 2000s. Whoever should get the credit, it’s truly delicious, and with the Hario Matcha Latte Frother you can make it at home as good as any Tokyo coffee shop!
Japanese design is renowned for its ‘monozukuri’ philosophy—the pursuit of perfection through functional beauty and innovation. The Hario Matcha Latte Frother solves the common problem of achieving that elusive, velvety foam at home without needing a professional espresso machine. It bridges the gap between the traditional tea ceremony and the modern cafe experience, offering a tool that is as efficient as it is elegant.
Any drink with latte in its name needs well-frothed milk and this is what Hario Matcha Latte Frother brings to your kitchen: an easy and efficient way to give your cold or hot milk the thickness it needs to make your matcha – or your cappuccino or your chocolate for that matter, because it is equally good with these. As in, barista-level good. Just 108 x 81 x 254 mm (4.3 x 3.2 x 10 inches), with a capacity of 350 ml (11.8 fl oz), and with a handled jar that also doubles as a mug, this is every matcha latte fan’s dream come true!
One of the unique quirks of this design is its multifunctionality. In a culture that values space-saving solutions, Hario has created a jar that isn’t just for frothing; it is your serving vessel too. The heat-resistant glass allows you to pop the jar directly into the microwave, simplifying your morning routine and reducing cleanup. Whether you are whisking up a treat for yourself or a guest, this Hario Matcha Latte Frother is a testament to thoughtful Japanese engineering.
