I need to pull this out and try it asap. I went to add it to my shopping list and realised that i have this as a sample from them. Work just got so busy i haven’t had a chance to sit and enjoy my tea as much

You should do this now! :)

I have 5 mins tonight so maybe I can do that… Eeeeesh ill be glad for December I tell ya!

Glad to see you like it! I have a sample of this I just got a couple days ago, too!

Very cool gaiwan!

Thank you!!! I absolutely LOVE it! Its so earthy – looks like stone and wood – photo there does it no justice. And SO affordable!

Ooo, nice gaiwan!

Aw, in Canada we can’t see the gaiwan – I guess because it’s not available for us to buy? haha – from your description it sounds gorgeous!

What?? In Canada you can’t even SEE pictures on the website?? I never knew that! Thats horrible! I will get a photo posted.

Hopefully this link works

I can see the gaiwan just fine, I wonder why you can’t, DaisyChubb?? It is gorgeous, btw! :D

You are Steepster’s official Matcha Diva :-) I think Red Leaf tea in particular owes you royalties on all the sales your lovely reviews helped generate!!

Aweeee your sweet. Thank you. I am just happy that they exist and offer all these matcha flavors!
I do actually have some extras I got today for sharing if you would like some. I was going to make a post on it but my energy has been low today.
PM me if you are interested and I can tell you what I have to share!
:)

Chocolate matcha! My goodness. I don’t know if I’d been brave enough to try it. I’m glad you did!

Extras? Sharing? Aaaaaahhhhh!

Yes please? And is the chocolate tastable?

Sounds delicious.

I can’t remember if I added this on my last order if not it’s definitely going on the next one :D

Hello, I’ve been reading your reviews and I looked into review writing discounts on red leaf tea’s website and it says that the 15 dollar discount will only take up to 30% off the next order. How are you getting it so it is free? “Each review will be rewarded with $15 Gift Certificate*, which can cover 30% of your total purchase price**.”- The site. I ended up buying the royal matcha and mocha flavored last night, I cannot wait til I get my shipment.

Hi :) Their program has changed since those reviews were written – it changed only recently – less than a month ago I think.

Darn. Thanks for the speedy reply.

most welcome. Its still an awesome deal though and I hope you love your matcha! I know I sure do :)

This sounds great.

Omg want.

Seriously …. its SO good – Steep two is really nice as well. I doubt I would get a third steep that is very noteworthy BUT steep two is still rockin that marshmallow flavor!

Looking forward to the full review!

Eeeee can’t wait to try this one! MARSHMALLOW! Looking forward to your Sororitea Sisters review as well :)

Thank you both!

the name of the tea itself sounds really magic !

just tell me Azzrian, is this Della terra teas different from the DT teas with marshmallows ? I mean do we taste the tea base in this tea ?

Ysaurella – I do not like DT base. Nor do I like how sometimes with some of their teas their sweetener or flavorings leave this oily coating on the top of the cup. To me, there is no comparison between the two – Della Terra is the clear winner. Now there are a FEW DT’s that I love but only a few.

Oh and I am sorry I understand your question more now – yes you can still taste the black tea base – the flavors are strong mind you but they don’t cover the taste entirely of the base.

Also just so you know – there was no problem at all with how you stated your question – it was quite clear – I am just feeling a little tired today so did not read it completely before answering :)

I LOVE marshmallowy teas! Yikes!

no problem Azzrian, however I think I do not like DT tea base (I tasted only 4 but have the same results each time) :)
Did you manage to taste Pleine Lune ?

Unfortunately I have not had the pleasure yet. I will eventually get to though.
I wonder how difficult it would be for us to do a trade? I have never shipping anything to Paris before!

I send you a PM

:) great thanks.

Damn! I didn’t order this one in my Try Me packs :(

this sounds good!

how do you steep this?

Is this better then Love in a Cup? The only thing different is there aren’t any sprinkles…

It is not a pure matcha, it’s a latte mix.

Ahhhh thank you that explains a LOT! LOL

Oooh, this sounds like it’s right up my alley. I don’t like vanilla, but I might have to try their “Chocolate Ecstasy” and “Ginger Kiss” matchas.

I don’t know how you all pinpoint flower notes. The best I can say is that it’s floral. What does a geranium smell like? Aah! I guess I need to do some more flower sniffing. Can someone please lead a class on floral aromas in tea?

That is a really cool idea. For me its due to making natural perfumes for many years AND the fact that I buy my daughter flowers at the market at least once a month sometimes more. I love flowers – trust me I have a LOT to still learn and would love to take a class! To me though it would be like trying to explain colors to someone online without using pictures. Now, get out and smell the flowers lol

Haha, I don’t even know what geraniums look like. I’m doomed! Or I could use google. whatever. :)

LOL you need smelloputer – that sounds gross – a scratch n sniff computer is what I mean haha!

growing up, my neighbor had geraniums on her back porch. They always had a kind of prickly smell. I googled smelloputer and dang it I couldn’t locare one :)

oh good! That means I can control what I smell. :D

KS, if you could invent this, you’d be rich! Do it!

I’ve often wished that someone would continue Hans Laube’s work!

LOL I knew someone had done something with this at some point – need to go read this. Thanks!

We hope it wouldn’t ruin your day if we told you that there isn’t any pu’erh in our Morning’s Journey—rather, there are only 100% Organic black teas here. But there are certainly pu’erh-like flavors.

We look forward to your full review!

Does not ruin my day at all … only makes the tea all that more interesting!
Wonderful how these three blacks blend into this wonderful complex flavor!
Posting review to be on the site on the 20th.
I will notate that there is in fact NOT puerh in the blend :)
Now I just need to get some for myself.
Luckily I still have enough in my sample for another session. :)
On steep four with this cup now.

I’m pleased that you’re getting good mileage out of the resteeps. We have heard from some that it doesn’t resteep well.

Then they are doing it wrong :P

Sounds like one I need to try!
