Today I’m drinking matcha just purchased from the Clipper Ship Tea Company. It’s their second highest grade of matcha and it was $30 for 30g. So it was not overpriced as matcha goes. It has a bit of a floral taste to it and is mildly sweet. It’s got that note common to matcha that I don’t know how to describe, a fresh, green kind of note. There is very little bitterness. Matcha is something I do not drink often. For this one I bought a matcha strainer they were selling for $12. I had been told by an expert that you should strain your matcha to make it finer first. It didn’t come out very frothy when I whipped it up. I don’t seem to have the technique with the whisk down. It does taste good though. If I were going to rate this tea it would probably get an 80 or so but if I rate this tea, every tea I have rated with this link will get that rating too, and I have rated a few bad ones with this link. This is a good tea.

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
