Whoa, apparently everyone on Steepster went mental over this one a few months ago.
Courtney generously sent me a sample of this! I had tried it last year at some point when I got a few samples from Nina’s, but it’s nice to revisit this because I feel as though my taste buds have come a long way.
It’s very tasty, I suspect I would have no interest in drinking a regular genmaicha after trying a flavored one, I’d be missing the sweetness.
I’m not sure I’d call this the greatest tea ever or anything, but I enjoyed it. I resteeped it thrice, but the third one was pretty watery. Just seemed a shame not to try.
If I ever do an order from Nina’s I would definitely include this! However I have priorities in the form of a new Butiki order as well as saving up for a massive MF order that I can’t really afford before I’d get around to ordering from Nina’s. All that just to give you an idea of where I stand. This isn’t a MUST HAVE NOW tea or anything.
I’m very glad I got to try it again, thank you Courtney!
On another note, I rolled my head around awkwardly to look at the alarm clock this morning and effed up my neck something fierce. We are such fragile creatures!
But Baby Girl slept over six hours straight last night so it’s almost worth the stupid neck/back pain!
I had rated this 86 last time and will leave it as such :)
LOL, yes there was some Steepster buzz.
I’m glad you enjoyed, and I hope your neck sorts itself out quickly.
