    Valentine's Day in Japan

    Grab your heart-shaped boxes! This week on Spill the Matcha, Misato and Cherine are breaking down the fascinating "reverse" tradition of Valentine’s Day in Japan. Unlike in Europe or America, where it's all about cards and flowers (often from the guys), in Japan, the pressure is entirely on the women! The girls discuss the complex hierarchy of chocolate giving and why February 14th can feel more like a strategic mission than a romantic holiday. Sponsors: Ninja Wifi (use Code MATCHA10 for 10% OFF)

    The Unspoken Rules of PDA in Japan

    How close is too close? This week on Spill the Matcha, Misato and Cherine are getting into the awkward, sweet, and sometimes confusing world of Public Displays of Affection (PDA) in Japan.

The girls break down why you rarely see couples kissing on the street in Tokyo and how even holding hands can feel like a "big statement" to some locals.

    Christmas in Japan

    Get ready to swap your roasted turkey for fried chicken! This week on Spill the Matcha, Misato and Cherine are celebrating the holidays by comparing Christmas in Japan with the festive traditions of Europe, specifically the UK! They’re spilling the matcha on the unique Japanese holiday customs, like why Christmas Eve is celebrated as the most romantic date night of the year and how the bizarre tradition of ordering KFC for Christmas dinner ever started. (P.S. The girls confess they prefer the fried chicken from Mos Burger!) Then, they compare notes with the UK's traditional approach, discussing everything they miss: the cheesy jokes and paper crowns of Christmas crackers, the charming fun of Christmas markets, and the rich, boozy deliciousness of Christmas pudding. Tune in for the ultimate girls' talk about romance, food, and the completely different ways the world celebrates the most wonderful time of the year!
