Know what they ordered.
Posts center the place, the drink, the rating, and the photo. Tags like wait, seating, price, vibe, and sweetness help a note feel useful instead of noisy.
Place-first matcha discovery
Find matcha through real visits.
Chasen is a social matcha map built around places, photo notes, friends, and official city boards. See what people actually ordered, save the spots that matter, and follow editor signal without digging through a generic review wall.
Why Chasen
Built for people who care where the matcha came from.
Keep a personal matcha list.
Mark places as Want to Try or Favorite, then come back when you need a plan. Chasen keeps your saved spots connected to the map, notes, and directions.
Local signal with a point of view.
LA, OC, HTX, DFW, and NYC boards turn community activity into rankings, while official editor notes and picks add a sharper layer of taste for launch cities.
See the visits that matter.
Friends bring social context without turning Chasen into a global feed. Their photo notes help you discover places through people you actually know.
Chasen Club
Recognition for showing up.
Chasen quietly recognizes the people whose real visits make the map more useful. A growing body of thoughtful contributions can move from Scout to Curator to Chasen Guide.
Scout
The beginning of a useful body of work.
Curator
A thoughtful collection of places, orders, and honest notes.
Chasen Guide
A trusted body of work built over time.
Tastemaker
Separate recognition for a point of view people consistently value.
Launch boards
Local boards, now including NYC. Useful anywhere.
Official boards give launch cities rankings, editor identity, and curated momentum. Outside board markets, Chasen still works as a map for posting notes, saving places, and building local signal over time.
