Red Leaf arrived! YES. I absolutely love the resealable bags.

After a 12 hour day at school, I finally made it home, ready to fall asleep standing up, and this was waiting for me. I pulled myself together enough to choose this one to put in a mason jar and shake up with milk.

I haven’t had super fresh matcha in a long time, and the green colour was so vibrant. This one has the scent of chocolate that I know from somewhere, but I can’t pinpoint it. It’s pretty tasty in cold shaken milk, but it may be better hot. Or in a smoothie. So many choices. The memory of that chocolate taste is right at the edge of my mind. Gah. My brain is exhausted, but hopefully it will come to me.

Sil

they finally have resealable bags?!

Courtney

Yes! I was thrilled. My last order was the same as the Peanut Butter you sent me. But now they are pretty and white and resealable.

VariaTEA

White? Mine are resealable but gold on one side and clear on the other.

Courtney

For a second there I thought I was so tired I actually mistook the colour of the bags. I took a photo for proof. :P

VariaTEA

Hahaha. Those are pretty nice. I far prefer the bags that are totally light tight versus the ones that have a window.

Courtney

These ones are fully white (the photo looks grey), back and front.

OMGsrsly

Nice! I like your flavour choices, too. :)

Fjellrev

Love the new bags!

Stephanie

You did delicate flavor level right? How is the chocolatey level of this one then? Just curious. Congrats on your kickass pile o’ matcha :D

Courtney

Yep, delicate. The chocolate scent is stronger than the taste. I want to try it hot before fully deciding though.

Stephanie

I understand :)

Bio

I love black tea and this is usually what’s in my mug. I’m also happy to enjoy a cup of green or red rooibos (green preferable to red), herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens (mango or pineapple, yum!).

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.

I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it (Camellia Sinensis Earl Grey Cream is one of my favourites).

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.

I’m vegan with an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I usually just pick them out of blends).
