Aokomi
★ 4.2 · 84 reviews Hong Kong Opened February 2026
Matcha, whisked to order on First Street
No pre-mixed batches here. Aokomi whisks every cup fresh, sourcing ceremonial-grade matcha straight from growers in Uji and printing the grade and origin right on the cup instead of leaving it vague.
Matcha specialists have been popping up across Hong Kong for two years now, as the ingredient moves past dessert menus into its own category. Aokomi sits in Sai Ying Pun's cafe cluster on First Street, going up against single-ingredient shops rather than general coffee houses.

This place is on the pricier side and you can definitely find a place that is cheaper with better quality. There wasn’t much flavor for the matcha latte as well as the affogato. But the staff were really friendly!

It’s official: Aokomi is my new matcha obsession. I had to see if this hyped-up spot lived up to the noise, and it absolutely does. The staff are literal angels—they walked us through the menu and gave us custom recs based on our tastes. We tried the classic iced matcha latte (bonus: oat milk is free!), the Tencha-Ori, and the matcha komi cake. Every single one was a hit. My friend hasn't stopped raving about the Tencha-Ori since we left, so a return trip is happening asap. Plus, I already have my eye on their fresh-cracked coconut matcha for the next hot day! 🥥🍵

Travel Cafe Eat Drink - Malaysia & Asia Hidden within shops in Sai Ying Pun, Hong Kong is a unique surprise in Hong Kong. This matcha cafe has its own stone mill where all Uji matcha is freshly ground, resulting in a pure and refreshing aroma. The matcha pudding is worth trying out, very fragrant and silky smooth matcha texture.

Truly freshest matcha in Hong Kong thanks to daily on-site stone milling — brighter, more complex flavours with strong umami and no bitterness or dullness common in pre-ground powders. Limited seating and food options — best as a drink-focused stop rather than a full meal. Higher prices may feel steep for casual visitors

Absolutely you will experience the high quality 🍵 yet you have to lineup and wait for 40 minutes to be seated, the cafe is a bit crowded and so noisy, it’s a not a good place to chill or even chitchat with friends. I recommend to order takeaway instead. U fortunately we couldn’t able to try their food as all food was sold out before 4pm
