drank Coconut Matcha by 3 Leaf Tea
296 tasting notes

I had this hot this morning! I added a pump of coconut syrup to my latte and ohhh yeaaahhhh. that hit the spot. I used some of my homemade almond milk to much success. (on a side note, I have finally splurged on an actual nut milk bag! I have been using and reusing the same sheet of cheesecloth for a month. Making nut milk twice a week with a holey piece of cheesecloth is not ideal. Now that I have this new fangled thingie and I love it!! Instead of a half and hour it take me ten minutes to make almond milk! woohoo! /end rant)
The base match 3 Leaf Tea uses is excellent. I have had my fair share of bad matcha in my day, and I can just tell that by looking at this lush, blue-green powder that this will be a very good experience. The base by itself is very nice, it is vegetal and fresh. It’s really got that umami thing down. If I am not careful, I do get some clumping, but it is an easy fix. The taste is smooth, no graininess, and although the flavor is light, it is a creamy hint at the end of each sip that just feels so right. I really enjoyed the flavor, the texture, and the latte I made was gone before I knew it. Looks like I will have to make some more almond milk soon!

The flavors are nicely spot on, but a little on the soft side. I like how you can customize Red Leaf Tea’s flavors, but the quality of this matcha is great!

If you want to set up a swap after your round in the matcha TTB, I can send you some stuff you haven’t tried from them! I have quite a few LOL

I dream in tea.

My name is Maddi. I like to take boiling hot showers and meditate in my closet. I think and talk about tea so much that it has become a punchline of sorts with my family and coworkers. Besides my unhealthy obsession with the drink that gives me life, I do yoga frequently, I make green smoothies out of any vegetables and fruit in the nearest vicinity, I am obsessed with Korean Dramas, I run as a form of moving meditation, and play video games with my easygoing and forgiving boyfriend. I used to cook for a living, and I almost always eat at least one waffle a day.

Favorite types of teas:
Aged Oolongs hold my heart. Sneaking their way in are Korean Greens. Roasted oolongs and I are not on speaking terms as of late. Black teas of all types, but especially Fujian and some Yunnan are nice indulgences more often than not. I know and love Japanese greens more than any kind, while Chinese greens bore me. Certain White teas thrill me, but most have me changing the channel. I love using my Yerba Mate gourd, we have become steadfast amigos. Puerh and I are still getting to know each other, and while sheng is playing hard to get, shou is there to hold my hand when no one is looking. I sometimes make my own functional herbal blends, and if there is a hell, it is filled with Rooibos. Above all else, direct – trade tea is my favorite.

LEAST Favorite Flavors/Flavorings
Hibscus
Lavender
Herbs, if they are out of place (I’m talking to you, thyme)
Strong Bergamot
Berries

First you heat the water.
Then you make the tea.
Then you drink it properly.
