drank Black Cherry Matcha by Matcha Outlet
894 tasting notes

This was one of the flavours I picked up when Red Leaf was clearing out some incorrectly made orders, and I’m sure glad I did. This is delicious, natural, juicy cherry flavour well balanced with the grassiness of matcha. I’m pretty sure the flavour is robust and the matcha quality is royal, though I’d have to double check.

I could drink this as a latte all day long.

Flavors: Cherry, Grass

Preparation
1 tsp 12 OZ / 354 ML

I will not buy more tea. I will especially not buy more tea from the US. Closing that tab now. :)

Yeah, don’t do it. I’ve left myself a note to send you some samples when I put together anther package for you. That way, if you like them and want to order, you can do some reviews and get store credit to off-set some of the cost.

Awww, thanks! I’m such a sucker for things on sale… and that “oops, we messed up, wanna buy some matcha for 60% off?” page gets updated pretty regularly. Caramel popcorn… But I’m being good. The whole international shipping and horrible exchange rate thing is making it easier to resist. :)

Yeah I’d be buying stuff still if not for the exchange rate.

Bio

I grew up drinking jasmine green tea with meals, but really fell in love with tea on a trip to Britain in elementary school. My first great love was Earl Grey, and I still adore it and all its variants.

I discovered the beauty of loose leaf tea much later, when, on impulse, I picked up a few teas that were on clearance at a home store. My introduction to loose leaf teas were Masala Chai and Provence Rooibos by the Metropolitan Tea Co and an unknown brand of kukicha and gyokuro (little did I know what a precious treasure I’d stumbled onto with that.)

At the time I was lucky to live in a place with multiple tea shops and several places to have afternoon tea, which is a delight I still miss.

Tea is part of my daily ritual and a nice, affordable way to appease the collector in me.

I enjoy distinctive whites, greens and oolongs, flavoured blacks, and herbals that are heavy on the citrus, lavender or mint.

Rating rubric, to give myself some consistency:
0-15 Yuck, not even drinkable.
16-30 Disappointing, not really inclined to give it a second try.
31-45 Disappointing, but maybe there’s potential? Worth one more try, prepped differently.
46-60 Mediocre, not terrible but not memorable.
61-75 Not bad. I’ll definitely finish what I have and might buy again.
76-90 Very enjoyable. Tasty, complex, it’ll keep me coming back.
91-100 BEST! I love everything about it and I will drink it forever.

Beyond tea, I’m a sex educator, polyamory activist, and radical queer. I love backwoods camping, abstract painting, baking & cooking, nail polish, cats, ceramic sculpture, and home nesting.
