Additional notes: I had the idea of adding some matcha to buckwheat. So I used both of Teavivre’s. I brewed up the buckwheat and stirred some matcha in when the cup cooled. It’s a great concept to combine these two. But I might have used too much matcha so I can’t really taste the buckwheat. But it certainly doesn’t NOT work. It’s the flavor of matcha with the flavor of buckwheat. A hint of matcha would have been better. Then later I will just brew up a second steep of plain buckwheat for a caffeine free toasty treat. I hope all the fine people at Teavivre are staying safe from this virus!

I love love love this one, tea-sipper. I tried to order it from the US store but alas, they just returned my money for now due to the coronavirus.
It looks like they are shipping teas again from their usual site? (I was looking for info on how they were doing and happened to see it. They also are having a Buy1Get1 on green teas.)
Ooooh ok, thank you for letting me know! <3
Because I’m still working on sipdowns, I just order my cupboard essentials and this one is definitely one of them :D.
I got an e-mail from Angel today (as many probably have) saying that everyone from Teavivre is doing okay! So that is great to hear. I do really appreciate their precautions about shipping tea.
:D That’s such good news! TY for an update.
I like the flavor of soba (buckwheat) with sencha. It’s a bit like using genmai, but I find it a bit sweeter with a more peanuty flavor than the toasted rice provides. They are similar profiles but both tasty!
