75
drank Pistachio Ice Cream by Butiki Teas
12 tasting notes

I’m not usually a green tea drinker, so for me a 75 for a green is a pretty good rating. I had this over thanksgiving weekend, and decided to really drive home the pistachio taste by eating this with a bowl of pistachios, I know overkill right? In a way I thought that eating them together almost hid the pistachio flavor of the tea allowing a sweetness to come through. Maybe it was becasue the actaul pistachios were so strong that they were ‘cancelled out’ in the tea? I didn’t necessarily get an ‘ice cream’ taste from this, but there was a richness to the mouthfeel that gave it more body than regular green tea. Overall I would recommend this tea to green tea lovers, but the flavors were a little delicate for me to appreciate fully. Will try again with sugar and possibly milk to bring out the creaminess more.

Hello person reading this! I’m a lover of flavored teas, especially ones from Harney and Sons. I generally perfer black, but flavored white, green or oolong can be fun too, even herbals. I think that decaffinated teas are weird though, thats the one thing not in my cabinets at anytime. I live in NYC so I am close to some pretty cool tea shops, and am a Med student who hates coffe, so need the caffine burst of large quantities of tea. I’m bascially on here to find some new teas to try, and maybe do a swap or two!
