[SHIBUYA STREAM HOTEL] A tranquil retreat for adults. A blissful "not-too-sweet" afternoon tea featuring the bitterness of matcha and the aroma of sesame!

SHIBUYA STREAM HOTEL (Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, General Manager: Shinichi Yoshida) will offer the 'Stream Afternoon Tea ~GREEN MEETS SESAMI~' at Bar & Dining 'TORRENT' starting Friday, May 1, 2026. This time, we are preparing an afternoon tea where you can enjoy the intertwined flavors of matcha and sesame. The slight bitterness of matcha and the deep richness of sesame. By utilizing the aromas and flavors inherent in these Japanese ingredients, we have created an adult taste that does not rely on sweetness. With a composition that layers lightness and richness, you can enjoy shifting flavors with every plate. Please spend a moment of relief in the city of Shibuya while feeling the changes in aroma and texture. ## Desserts layering the charm of matcha and sesame The two-layered cold glass dessert layers matcha sauce over lightly sweetened white sesame blancmange and black sesame agar, allowing you to feel the various expressions of sesame along with the difference between a smooth and a jelly-like texture. The Dainagon Matcha Cake is a dish where the gentle sweetness of Dainagon adzuki beans and the aroma of caramelized sesame overlap on a slightly bitter matcha roll cake. Also, the matcha pudding, which resembles sesame tofu wrapped in bamboo grass, is finished with a smooth mouthfeel and soft elasticity. To bring out the individuality of each item, the lineup is arranged with an awareness of layering and texture contrast, allowing you to feel a change with every bite. ## Tastes to enjoy matcha and aroma
