Anchorage, Alaska

The matcha
& mochi place.

Two little shops, one warm room. Aloha Mochi pounds fresh mochi on one side; Pualani whisks ceremonial matcha on the other. Built by a few friends who missed the islands.

One roof, two little worlds.

Order from either counter — or, honestly, both. That's kind of the whole point.

Fresh-pounded mochi, mochi donuts, and Hawaiian-inspired sweets. Chewy, soft, a little bit magic.

our story

A little aloha, way up north.

We're a few friends who grew up on mochi after school and matcha before sunrise. Anchorage winters are long — we figured the town could use a warm room, a whisk, and a mallet.
