From the #matchamonday right after the Great Steepster Freeze of 2020…
I like this matcha – it’s not too strong, and while the raspberry is more subtle there’s something nice about not being as blasted in the face with it as some of the other flavoured matches. I feel like it’s also just got some good natural creaminess.

Friendly reminder that I do not numerically rate DAVIDsTEA blends as I’m currently employed there and it would be an obvious conflict of interest. Any blends you see with numerical ratings were rated prior to my employment there. These reviews are a reflection of my personal thoughts and feelings regarding the teas, and not the company’s.
You know better your talk about the Great Steepster Freeze and the Tumblr flashbacks I’m having I’m recalling the time I returned to that hellsite after four years somewhere around 2016 and was all “Wait, what’s Dashcon? What’d I miss???”
Also, cue Jefferson in Hamilton.
Anyway, now that I’m hardcore into Matcha Lattes, do you know any really good * sugar-free* matcha blends to try? I haven’t ventured into flavored matcha yet, so I’m a bit trepidatious, but eager.
Definitely check out 3 Leaf Tea!
