drank Pumpkin Pie Matcha by DAVIDsTEA
239 tasting notes

I can’t believe I forgot to review this.

Though I am not a huge fan of sugar in my tea, I loved this one. The spice and flavoring paired surprisingly well with the matcha, which I wasn’t expecting. It’s buttery and cinnamony, with maybe some hints of the other pumpkin-related spices.

Since they say that they add matcha flavoring to their matcha, I’m not sure how to rate the base. It tasted a little floral, sweet, grassy, and creamy as it should have, but how much of that was the flavoring?

I’m also docking off a few points because by the time I get the tea flavor as strong as I like it, it’s too sugary. Let us sweeten our own teas, David!

I want more. I stopped by my “local” David’s, but they were out. I don’t think it’s worth the $9 shipping fee, so I’m going to have to wait until there’s a sale and hope that they still have it in stock.

Just want to clarify; there IS added flavouring in this matcha but the added flavouring is “Pumpkin Pie” flavouring. There shouldn’t be any matcha flavour added. Also, if your local store is out then sadly they likely wont be receiving more: this is a limited edition/seasonal blend and now that the Fall Season/Collection has ended it wont be supplied to stores anymore. However, that said, it is still available online! Though I know that’s not the easiest option given that you’re in the states right? Shipping sucks.

Yeah, I’m hoping it will still be online during the holiday sales.
