Wow I have to drink down my matcha lol its been kicking around for far too long! I mixed a quarter tsp of this and the black cherry today, whisked with hot water and my new whisk and giant kitchen whisk to get some froth, and topped with hot water. Both these matchas still smell really good,but the flavor is mostly green tea with vanilla creaminess. So the French vanilla must be holding up better than the cherry haha. I’ll try to have matcha once a day to use up my open packs, then I can tear into my cheesecake one which is unopened from a while back too, but should hopefully still be good. See previous notes on these teas!
This is You :-D

Bio
Hello all, I am an electrical engineer (read:NERD :D), who is a bit obsessed with tea! I discovered loose tea in 2011, DAVIDsTEA in 2012 and it took off from there. I really started drinking/enjoying tea because it was excellent to take to class in the morning and because I can’t handle coffee! (unless it’s a really good cappuccino or latte, or decent decaf haha)
I enjoy a variety of teas – current favorites being ripe and raw pu’erhs, chinese black teas and herbal/green rooibos blends. I also enjoy white, green, and oolong teas, although I tend to drink them more in the warmer months. I have also tried matcha and guayusa, but I don’t drink them too often as I am a bit sensitive to caffeine. As a result I don’t drink black teas as often as I used to, but in moderation I can still enjoy a wide variety of teas.
Oh, and I have a severe peanut allergy and try to avoid most other nuts, just to be safe. Limits my tea choices a bit, but that’s ok. However I have tried almonds and found out I can eat them, so I have been trying a few teas with them in them.
