CHALOG: Tea Tasting Notes

About

Quietly log today's bowl of tea. CHALOG is a calm tasting journal for matcha and Japanese tea. Note each cup with a photo and five tastes, and your own taste slowly comes into view. Turn "that was good" into a cup you can actually remember. Rate umami, sweetness, bitterness, astringency and finish on a simple radar, and choosing your next matcha — and how to brew it — gets easier with every bowl. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Quick log: save a bowl in seconds with the tea, a rating, a photo and a note - Full tasting notes: five tastes, froth, aroma, preparation, wagashi pairing, place and occasion - Taste type: after three bowls with flavor notes, discover which type of tea drinker you are - Brew guides: whisk usucha, koicha or a matcha latte, or steep sencha, gyokuro, hojicha and genmaicha in a teapot (kyusu) — from what you need to the last drop, with step-by-step timers - Collection: organize by tea and tea house, with search, sorting and favorites - Stats: totals, streaks, your flavor radar and how you prepare your tea - Tasting calendar: see your tea days at a glance - Badges: 12 badges to collect as you keep going - Photos: crop to a clean square to capture your bowl and sweets - Reminders: a gentle nudge at the time you choose - Works on iPhone and iPad PERFECT FOR - Matcha and green tea lovers who want to remember every cup - Anyone curious to find their favorite teas and growing regions - Beginners who want clear steps for brewing sencha or hojicha - Tea ceremony students keeping notes from practice - Café hoppers tracking the matcha lattes they try PRIVACY Your notes stay on your device.
