I’ve been diggin the roasted grain teas lately. This tea is a little too strange for me. The soybeans dominate. Add a weird sweet soy nuts flavor to it and the aftertaste is really medicinal. Once I added a dash of salt it’s not half bad. More of a broth than a tea. I won’t restock this but have about 50g left. Anybody want to try it?
I got this in a swap with KallieBoo!. Not the sort of thing I would normally try. I had difficulty identifying the aroma until I thought of burnt popcorn, which is almost a perfect fit. I don’t think I would have been able to drink this without sugar and just couldn’t like it. Not what I would call tea.
I think I felt similarly about Lupicia’s Matcha Black Soybean tea, or whatever it was. Weird soy nut flavour, bitterness… quite odd. If you feel like hanging onto this for a bit, I’d be curious to try it (but I think I’d best not swap for at least a month due to being crazy busy… just ask my last two swap partners, who got their packages mailed out two weeks late!)
Maybe use it to cook rice?
