Expected little out of this, especially since I’d had Butiki’s Irish Cream Cheesecake just prior, and it underwhelmed me. Then, surprise, surprise! The flavor is bang-on. It’s missing the thickness of Irish Cream, and it’s lighter than any Irish Cream I’ve ever had. It IS a green tea though, so this makes perfect sense. Folks who love Irish Cream flavor yet would rather nix the heaviness of the drink should most definitely try this out.

Upon opening this package it sort of smelled like Pistachio’s and creme/cream.

It’s a lovely flavored green tea. I enjoyed it VERY much! I had 2 infusions, actually.It’s green tea but creamy and nutty. The end-sip is a bit floral and grassy (I almost typed GASSY…lol)

This is very good!

OH! Check out my blog, btw, I posted two things today!

One is about my NEW favorite Veggie Burgers and the other is about the Vegan Stuffed Mushrooms I made for New Years Eve :)

Haha! Gassy.

“Gassy” is not a good flavor for tea. :)

Crowkettle

Mmm, artichoke veggie burgers. I’ll have to check out this tea company and your blog more often.

Lady 0f Spaydes

Sounds yummy. Boyfriende and I made portobello burgers yesterday for the first time, best burger ever. It needs some tweaking, but its almost perfect. :)

Oof, woke to more rain which is flaring up my migraine-head. I’m hoping it’ll subside by noon since I planned to try out a new Japanese restaurant for lunch for my birthday.

I was going to brew some genmaicha this morning, but then remembered I ordered this tea a year ago and figured I’d give it a try. The aroma of the dry leaf is a little strange to me, but I also can’t drink alcohol (see above about the migraines) so I can’t really compare to actual Irish Creme (I did used to enjoy the Irish Creme flavored Torani syrup in coffee, though). I definitely can smell the fresh green grassiness of green tea, but the flavoring… I guess it smells a little like a chocolate root beer? It’s not unpleasant, just different.

The flavor is pretty nice, though! I used 2g of leaf for a 12 oz. cup and steeped 175F water for only 2 minutes, and the green tea is smooth and flavorful and not a bitter mess. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a green tea and I’m finding the grassy undertone very pleasant. The flavor does have this sort of dryness to it that I imagine is a bit alcohol-esque, and tastes a bit like chocolate, but not abrasively so… it’s pretty smooth, sweet, and subdued. I do get a bit of a cream favor in the aftertaste. It’s quite nice… maybe not my first choice for a rainy day when I tend to go for dark and roasty flavors, but it is certainly the most thematic tea in my cupboard for today and I’m glad I tried it!

I hope your head is better. And now I want Asaian food. I am apparently very suggestible.

My prescription medication and that cup of caffeinated green tea saved the day! I got my Japanese food (miso soup, shrimp stirfry noodles, and a yuzu cheesecake), checked out a new cookie shop (in lieu of birthday cake), and even squeezed in a little thrifting and found two small teapots and a gravity well infuser each for $2-3!

ashmanra

That sounds like a very happy birthday! I am glad it wasn’t ruined by a migraine and you got to really enjoy good food and tea and some fun shopping! <3

Michelle

Happy birthday!

Hmm, this one’s not bad but not particularly memorable. I get some vanilla and maple, but nothing I would call a cream flavor. Also the base has notes of hay, the kind you usually find in a white tea, which sort of works against the smoothness I’d expect from cream.

Thanks MissB for letting me give this a shot! (170)

It’s a tasty green tea with lots of cream and butter to it. I don’t get Irish Cream from it, but I do get cream.
