Civic dialogue, slow tea

Debate the news over a bowl of matcha

Monthly sessions where expert guests discuss current affairs while we taste and review matcha together, with considered disagreement at the centre.

The format

Focused exchange, deliberate pace

A moderated conversation sits beside a slow tasting flight. Guests make their case, the room listens, and the matcha gives the pauses somewhere to land.

Every recap keeps the strongest arguments in view, along with what was in the cup.

How a session runs

Three pillars of every gathering

Expert facilitation

A moderator keeps each guest on the question, invites rebuttal, and makes sure every voice in the room is heard.

Ceremonial tasting flights

Each session pours a small flight of single-origin matcha, with tasting notes shared alongside the discussion.
