Mercuryhime drank Marshmallow Treat Genmaicha by 52teas

I’m so happy I finally got some of this tea! I’ve been eyeing it since foreeever! I was lucky to purchase a bag of this before it was sold out. It went pretty fast!

anywho, the tea is great! I love the dessert-y sugary scent and slight toasty rice scent is soooo mmmmmm. I’m wishing the toasted rice flavor is more prominent, but it’s yummy otherwise. The mouthfeel is thick and creamy. It’s savory and sweet and so freakin good. I should have ordered 2 pouches…but then I’d feel bad about depriving everyone else of this tea.

Steep two had only a hint of candy sweetness but it was still awesome.

Bio

I came from a tea drinking family, but I never appreciated the different qualities and varieties of tea until older. All that time wasted! But I guess I needed to be mature enough to appreciate the tea experience. :)

My favorite teas are green oolongs and white tea. I also love greens, especially gyokuro. I have a huge appreciation for rooibos and honeybush as they are often that only thing I can drink in the evening. I am a relatively new convert to black teas. This is unfortunate for my wallet but extremely wonderful for my palate. :)

In any case, I have a love for both flavored and unflavored teas. They are different experiences for sure, but both enjoyable. I find that it often depends on my mood.

I am on a quest to find a tea that will win my husband over. I think I’m making some headway…
