894 Tasting Notes
I sipped this down grandpa style in my travel mug. My initial feeling was one of regret, since it seemed weak and kind of travel mug flavoured, but the longer it steeped the better it got. Rich cocoa notes came out and this was just delicious, without ever tasting over steeped.
I will have to pick some of this up in the future.
Yesterday I got to meet Lindsay, which was awesome. We had this tea, which is delicious and roasty and I enjoy more every time I have it. Then we went for amazing Ethopian dinner.
It’s so nice to start meeting some of the wonderful people from Steepster. This is one of the nicest online communities I’ve been a part of.
Also resteeping last nights leaves this morning. Mmm mmm mmm.

Thank you to Liquid Proust for sending this my way.
I made this in my travel mug yesterday as I was running out the door. The directions on the website seemed a little excessive (3-4 tbsp for 7oz of liquid??), so I went with 3tbsp for about 12oz of hot water, plus a couple of spoons of powdered milk (all out of the fresh stuff.)
It was quite potent at that concentration, and didn’t even fully blend. There was no distinct matcha taste, just lots of nice, spicy chai flavour, predominantly cinnamon.
I will need to try this soon with fresh milk, as I’m not a fan of powdered, and with a bit less mix – maybe as a latte in the blender.
Enjoyable, and I think this will probably go fast.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Clove, Spicy
