drank Mint Matcha by DAVIDsTEA
4269 tasting notes

Thank you Kawaii433! I think this is the first time I have had a Davids matcha? I like this combination though! Sweetened with coconut nectar, I think this is the choice of sweetening matcha that is the most okay with me. Brewing it, I started with green tea temp water, but when I saw how much matcha was in the sample for a mug, as I was sipping, I just kept adding cold water to the mug. A LOT of water to dilute all that matcha. This matcha is MURKY. Like olive green murky. But tastes fine with this lovely mint flavor. A great combination of flavors. I wouldn’t mind trying more of David’s matcha like this… It was a nice change of pace for today! Now to steep up some puerh for the afternoon….

I’ve really been loving their matcha this last year or two! I’m glad you’ve had the chance to try it!

tea-sipper

Yep, now I want to try all of their matchas. haha. At the moment I happen to be drinking a tea you sent over, AJRimmer! :D

It’s more murky than our other matchas because of the more naturally brown colour of the coconut nectar ;)

tea-sipper

OH ok, thanks for explaining that. I didn’t mind the murkiness, I just hadn’t seen a matcha like that before.

Hi! I love tea and trying new ones – it adds a bit of variety to my day! Books, music, TV & movies are my thing… and tea, of course.

Most of the teas listed in my cupboard are actually sample sizes. I don’t really have 2,000 ounces of tea around here! Many of my teas have only one teaspoon left… maybe two. But I like keeping them in my cupboard list for reference to what I could be sipping. Usually, I write tasting notes once for each tea. I’m still drinking them, just not writing tasting notes each time!

I’m always in search of: Hattialli, Qu Hao black, Jin Jun Mei, teas using marshmallow root.

My dislikes: hibiscus, ginger (unless in chai), turmeric, bee pollen, charcoal type flavors

My ratings:
95-100 – Super awesome deliciousness favorites – cupboard essential
80-95 – Also pretty delicious
65-80 – Pretty good
50-65 – Okay
1-50 – Probably won’t want to sip it again

I’m planning on being a Steepsterer as long as there IS a Steepster, so if you’re not hearing from me, that means something happened to my health… if you know what I mean. (Or as evidenced by the great computer hiatus of 2019, something happened to my computer… I have a dumb phone so can’t access internet on that. As of 12/20/21 my wifi might start getting unreliable.)

Happy sipping!
