This tea has a beautiful, milky aroma to it— not akin to cow’s milk, but maybe some sweet soy or almond milk. It also smells just a touch buttery and like golden caramel.
The taste is wonderful. I detest milk in tea, so I thought I wouldn’t particularly like this tea— was I ever wrong. It’s warm, and has wonderful milky light caramel and toasted rice notes over a satiny green tea flavor. It has just a touch of bitterness on the back of the tongue that balances everything out perfectly.
I love this tea, and would recommend it for anyone seeking out a light yet satisfying tea for a cold night. Just make sure you taste it before you add sweetener or milk— you may find you don’t need it!
