The concept of KYO Kohee is simple—amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday lives, they aspire to provide a tranquil space for customers to slow down and relax, charming visitors with their elegant, minimalist interiors. Decked out in earthy tones, stepping into the cafe is sure to imbue any customer with a sense of zen and calm.

KYO Kohee prides themselves on using premium quality matcha powder, which is said to be specially imported from Japan, in their drinks. Their signature Matcha Latte, Okumidori ($7.90) is supposed to have a well-balanced bittersweet flavour, with mellow grassy notes.

For an elevated fix, go for their Matcha Latte, Utsukushi ($9.90), which is made with ceremonial grade matcha powder and has a rich combination of earthy and floral notes.

Coffee lovers can go instead for Iced KYO Coffee ($6.90), which features a refreshing blend of espresso and a house-made sweet caramel sauce. You can also top up an additional $1 to upgrade your regular milk to Hokkaido milk, boasting a higher fat content and thus, producing a creamier, richer drink.

If you’re looking for a sweet treat, consider their Affogato Ice Cream, which features a scoop of vanilla ice cream, poured over with your choice of Matcha Shot ($6.90), Hojicha Shot ($6.90) or Espresso Shot ($5.90).
