Azuma Tea Garden

Got this in the other day from Yunomi. Made it today as an iced matcha latte with almond milk. I used around 8g of latte mix for about 6oz of water. I added some sugar and added almond milk and ice. It came out quite tasty. It is basically a latte mix made of ground hojicha. They add various ingredients so it is not straight matcha. The main note I get from the tea is the taste of the roasted hojicha, a roasted note. Then of course I taste the unsweetened almond milk without which this would not really be a latte. On the Yunomi website they list this mix as caffeine free. I sent Yunomi an email asking if this could possibly be true and their reply was they really should take that down that it was low in caffeine but not caffeine free. The error is still on their site. In any case this is a good tea and low in caffeine. As my insomnia has been really bad lately I have stopped caffeine for the day after this low caffeine beverage.

I whisked approximately 8g of latte mix with 175 degree water. I added sugar, almond milk and ice to the mix for the iced latte.
