Black Matcha – You have probably heard of Matcha Green Tea and how amazing it is. You may wonder what makes it so great. What makes Matcha Tea so wonderful is how it is processed. Matcha Tea is processed by stone grinding tea leaves to a fine powder. This helps maintain is most pure and original flavor while still keeping all of the health benefits as though the leaves were just off the tree. There are no additives or preservatives either. We have put a twist on Matcha Tea. Instead of just your everyday Matcha Green Tea, we have taken other tea leaves and tea flavors and turned them into Matcha style beverages.

Our Black Matcha Tea powder consists of Black Tea leaves stone ground just like original Matcha. We have left all the original flavor and healthful qualities of Black Tea for you to enjoy without compromising the value and purity of it. We have left of Black Tea’s amazing health benefits right where they belong: with the tea powder. Healthful qualities of Black Matcha are the ability to:
reduce viruses in the mouth (like herpes) help prevent cystitis, diarrhea, skin infections and pneumonia slow down cancer cell growth help prevent heart attacks and strokes soothe arthritis prevent tooth decay help burn fat kill free radicals
With all these amazing benefits comes great taste as well. Black Matcha Tea has a spicy taste that can be sweet or bitter, earthy, malty and floral. Depending upon how long it is brewed, Black Matcha can take on many flavor profiles for your enjoyment.

OMG! OMG! OMG! Red Leaf Tea added more matchas! Whooooooo! Yeah! I receive some in the shipment I just received and I can wait to try them! This was the first one on tap and I chose it at random. Sure this smells and tastes like black tea but I’m excited about this one mostly because of how strong the black tea flavor is in it! It’s wonderful! I have a feeling this won’t last long in my stash!

Thank you TeaEqualsBliss for sending me this Matcha.

My first sip was a bit of a “shock” I think mostly because my taste buds are somewhat programmed to expect green matcha when I sip from my chawan… and this is like SURPRISE! It’s a nice surprise though. It is very bold and rich.

I think I am going to try this tomorrow as a latte before I rate it numerically.

Second try. First time I failed it by using too hot of water. This time I used a perfect temp and steamed milk.
It’s gonna take some getting used to. It’s not that I don’t like it, it’s just VERY different than anything I have ever had. I didn’t even like puerh at first and I enjoy this more.
So, I’m not going to rate this because I know I will like it eventually.

It’s the second black matcha I’ve tried. The first was a Darjeeling/Assam blend with a robust, almost chocolaty flavor with a wonderful texture. This reminded me of a mid-grade, CTC-cut Nilgiri on smell – bitter forefront that transitioned into a floral fragrance. The result after whisking was a thickly-frothed, even-brown liquor with a spectacular aroma. The true beauty of this was in the texture. If the drinker had no taste buds, they’d still find pleasure in the velvety/silky delivery.

I was excited to try this, because such respectable reviewers have given it such good remarks. Alas, I just don’t like this very much. I find it on the bitter side, and very astringent, when taken straight. It does make a decent latte, though. As a latte, the texture is nice and rich, and the bitterness/astringency is balanced with the milk. As a straight matcha, this is a 6. As a latte, it’s an 8. Overall, 7. I’ll keep it around, and use it in the mornings before work when I need caffeine but don’t want to start a regular pot of tea. I doubt I’d choose it over other teas when I have the time to be leisurely.
