The owners of Shōgun Matcha have found a permanent home for their popular matcha business. Launched as a pop-up business in early 2025, the first brick & mortar Shōgun Matcha is slated to open early next year not far from Northside Hospital in Sandy Springs.
Shōgun is opening at 111 Glenridge Point Parkway (in the lobby of the Bell Glenridge apartment community) where it will occupy a roughly 1,300 square foot space beside existing tenant Little Venice NY Pizza & Grill. The space Shōgun has leased was for a short time in 2025 home to a franchise of Earl of Sandwich, but before that was home to a Jimmy John's franchise.
Founded in January 2025, Shōgun Matcha is a premium matcha brand offering farm-grade matcha (with cultivars like Okumidori and Saemidori) imported from the Uji region of Japan, an area known for producing some of Japan's finest matcha.
After finding community through pop-ups at the Druid Hills Farmers Market and Sandy Springs Farmers Market as well as at Nobu in Buckhead, Shōgun was ready to level up their business and hopes their Sandy Springs shop will allow them to offer the authentic Japanese matcha experience they were not able to fully provide as a pop-up.
The new shop will offer both fresh made matcha beverages as well as packaged matcha for home enjoyment.
