Hi! I'm Amina, founder of Mina's Matcha.

I first got into matcha in 2014, and over the years it became more than just a drink to me. Mina's Matcha started as a small pop-up before growing into farmers markets and community events across Seattle, and that community is what made this café possible. Thank you to everyone who stopped by the cart, brought a friend, and believed in this from the beginning. This place is because of you, and I hope every visit gives you a chance to slow down and enjoy a great cup of matcha.
