The best matcha near Sant Feliu de Guíxols: what to know
"Best matcha in Sant Feliu" is an honest search, but let's be straightforward: the competition for ceremonial matcha in Sant Feliu de Guíxols isn't particularly high. Most places have something on the menu. Not all of them care about where it comes from.
If the question is where to get a matcha latte made with traceable Japanese tea, the nearest answer is five minutes away: Dirty Rabbit in S'Agaró.
What makes a good matcha latte
- Where the tea comes from. Japanese ceremonial matcha has its own flavour — without the bitterness of generic powder. At Dirty Rabbit we use REQ Matcha, a Barcelona project founded by a Japanese man who lives in Japan and selects the tea directly at the plantations.
- The dose. We serve 2g of ceremonial matcha per cup — enough to be recognisable without being heavy. There's an extra strong option for a little more if you want more body.
- Preparation temperature. Matcha doesn't mix well when dissolved directly into hot milk. We whisk it with cold water first. Small step, big impact on texture and flavour.
What matcha you can order
- Classic matcha latte — hot or iced, with plant milk available
- Orange matcha — with orange juice instead of milk (dairy-free, more refreshing)
- Extra strong — higher dose, for a little more

Dirty Rabbit, Avinguda Platja d'Aro 275, S'Agaró. Five minutes from Sant Feliu along the GI-682.
We opened on 1 November 2024. Iwonka runs the place with a simple logic: every ingredient on the menu has a name and an origin. Matcha from REQ Matcha. Coffee from La Cabra. Bread from Origo Bakery. Nothing anonymous.

Why matcha is everywhere but good matcha is rare
Quality matcha costs money. Japanese ceremonial-grade powder is in a different price bracket from generic imports, and that affects what most places actually buy. Adding "matcha latte" to a menu is easy. Working with the right supplier is a different decision.
This conversation arrived late to the Costa Brava. The places doing matcha well are the same ones doing coffee well — it's the same philosophy applied to a different ingredient. There are few in the area, but they're here.
