Company description not available.
The pouch of this I have comes from a collaboration with Bookishly, a subscription service where you’re sent a classic novel in an artistic sleeve every month accompanied by a pouch of themed tea. The label on the Bookishly pouch actually lists the name as ‘Drink Me’ (it came with a copy of Alice in Wonderland), with ‘kaika cherry sencha’ as a subheader, but after some digging it looks like the same tea is sold by Jenier under the latter, so I’ve created the listing like that so it’s easier for others to find.
On opening the packet, I was immediately hit with a strong cherry scent, along with something distinctly playdough-y. I was worried that it would taste artificial because of the scent, which is just as strong when steeped, but I needn’t have been as I was pleasantly surprised by how subtle and delicate the flavouring actually is in comparison to the scent. In the sip it actually reminds me of Japanese flavouring – very tea-forward, with the cherry playing an important but supporting role. Green teas are not my favourites as a general rule, but I really enjoyed this one as a blend, and will happily finish the rest of my pouch.
