Cafe Marumataen, located in Tsuruhashi, Osaka, is a Japanese tea specialty store operated by the Uji tea wholesaler 'Marumataen', founded in 1853. Amidst a decline in traditional tea sales, the store opened a cafe space two years ago. To celebrate its 2nd anniversary, the store has partnered with matcha influencer 'Maccha Lover' to offer free unlimited freshly ground matcha toppings to those who follow their official Instagram account. The campaign runs from June 1, 2026, to June 30, 2026. The shop features a stone mill, allowing customers to enjoy gelato and lattes made with matcha carefully selected by a tea master who has won the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Award. Popular items include matcha gelato with three levels of intensity, the voluminous 'Yama' (Mountain) gelato, and matcha affogato. Located just a 4-minute walk from Tsuruhashi Station, it is a convenient spot for both locals and tourists.
