Cameron B. drank Peach Matcha by 3 Leaf Tea

4161 tasting notes

Sipdown! (13 | 13)

Yay, look at me go, actually finishing some matcha ha ha! :P (we’ll ignore the fact that I still have like 5+ 30g tins in my drawer plus another two flavored packets..)

I’ve been enjoying iced flavored matcha with oat milk every morning, and this one really lends itself to that preparation. It tastes almost exactly like that peaches & cream instant oatmeal packet that I used to love! Less sweet, obviously, but the peach of the matcha together with the creamy, oat-y milk replicates the idea perfectly. So perfect for breakfast ha ha!

And if I’m feeling frisky, I might just add a drizzle of maple or vanilla syrup just to augment the yumminess… ;)

Flavors: Creamy, Grass, Peach, Sweet

Preparation

Iced 1 tsp 8 OZ / 236 ML

Look at you go! :)

My eggnog matcha yesterday was so delicious that I was tempted to start the day with another one. One matcha drink a day is plenty and I was in the mood for more tea sipping.

Are you able to drink more caffeine after you have a matcha, or like me, one and done?

I’ve started my morning with matcha too!

I’m not at all sensitive to caffeine, so I don’t really pay attention to how much I have!

Neither am I, but matcha sends me to the moon.

Profile

Bio

Hi, I’m Cameron!

I’m a 30-something software engineer currently living in Austin, Texas with my husband and our two pugs, Gobo and Ume. I tend to cycle between my different hobbies, and they include piano, knitting, video games, board games, miniature painting, planners, bento, Korean skincare, and – of course – TEA! But really, what I’m best at is “collecting” hobby-related things… ;)

~ 2024 SIPDOWN CHALLENGE! ~
- November sipdowns: 13
- Total 2024 sipdowns: 156

I prefer my tea lukewarm or at room temperature and without milk or sugar. I steep Western style, and fluctuate between using big mugs or small teapots depending on the season.

I am always up for a swap! Just let me know if you’d like to try something in my cupboard.

Tea Preferences:
I enjoy both flavored and unflavored teas in many forms. These days, I drink mostly flavored teas, and I tend to gravitate most toward black, green, oolong, and herbal varieties. I do have a special fondness for straight Japanese green teas, however.

I do not sweeten my teas, and pre-sweetened teas are usually too sweet for me. I also do not enjoy stevia.

I tend to reach for fruitier flavors rather than desserty ones these days, but I do have favorites from both categories. Willing to try anything once! There are a few ingredients/flavors that aren’t generally my jam, such as coconut, rose, lavender, and chocolate flavoring. But I also have teas that I love with some of those things, too! :)

Favorite Companies:
3 Leaf
Bird & Blend
Dammann Frères
Harney & Sons
Kyoto Obubu Tea Farms
Lupicia
Old Barrel Tea Co
Simpson & Vail
Taiwan Tea Crafts
TeaVivre

Tea Rating Scale:
90-100: Outstanding! Permanent cupboard resident
80-89: Great – a possible staple
70-79: Good, but I wouldn’t buy it
60-69: It’s decent
50-59: Meh… I may or may not have finished the cup
40-49: Ick. Couldn’t finish it.
00-39: Repulsive, I spat it out

I will sometimes refrain from rating a tea if I feel I’m too biased due to my personal dislikes, or if I suspect the sample has been compromised by age or scent contamination.
