What I REALLY wanted this morning was a matcha latte lol but since I’m trying to get a bite to eat and get down to the gym before its too late in the day I opted for a new tea instead. I’ll reward myself with the matcha shake or latter when I get home. :)

This is a bit underwhelming. I’m not sure if I over steeped or over heated this tea but there’s an underlying bitterness that I’ll need to play around with to see if I can get rid of. Th dry scent of the tea is divine! And fter brewing there’s much more creaminess than strawberry…but the taste, well it’s like a creamy black. I’m not getting the strawberry. Holding off rating this until I get a chance to play with more of it :) but still a decent cup of tea to kick off the day.

This is the second review I have seen on this tea that said pretty much the same thing I think. I wonder if Frank had a bad batch of this because it is absolutely a wonderful tea. Hope you had a great work out!

I had this and gave it away because I didn’t like it. Maybe it’s a hit or miss thing.

I did a “short” cold brew while I was at the gym of the leaves I’d steeped and it was a bit better. Sat for about 2.5 hours I’m guessing. More strawberry but still not what I’d expect.

So no real clue what to write about myself here. A friend got me into drinking loose tea and it’s something I thoroughly enjoy though I have nowhere near the experience that many folks on the boards seem to have.

My other interests are cycling, reading, board games, disney cruises, world of warcraft and dancing – in no particular order. I love travelling as well!

Most of that is on hold these days though, including tea drinking like I used to as I have a new little one who eats up all my spare time.
