When it comes to cheese tea, there is one shop that stands out among the crowd, and that's machi machi. Having earned the somewhat hyperbolic moniker 'god' cheese tea shop back home in Taiwan, they've also been enjoying success in Japan.
Now, to usher in the Year of the Ox 2021, machi machi is offering a limited-time holiday latte incorporating traditional Japanese flavors. In a nod to the Japanese New Year's tradition of eating mochi rice cakes, this latte features an extra dose of chewiness, which is sometimes described in Japanese with the ideophonic expression mochi mochi:

"Mochimochi Matcha Azuki Latte" begins with a smoothie-type matcha latte base which isn't cloyingly sweet poured over a layer of tsubu-an paste made with plump, premium Hokkaido Azuki red beans, then topped with the special "crème brûlée" cheese cream used in the popular "Brûlée Milk Tea" offered at machi machi's Harajuku store. Finally, a skewer of chewy mochi dumplings on top round out the experience.
You can enjoy the variety in tastes which change from layer to layer, and you can even combine tastes by mixing them up, or dip your mochi skewer inside for a new taste experience.
