Apparently I forgot to review this tea until the last cup as I’ve been drinking it off and on for months. So, this is a sipdown and I have mixed feelings about this matcha blend. It is quite tasty as a stand alone flavored matcha, but in comparison to the French Vanilla, it is missing something. It has the tangy notes that I associate with cheesecake, but even as a chilled latte, I would not have guessed cheesecake unless I read it on the label. I don’t think it is the flavor level itself as it was ordered as robust, but rather that it just lacks the buttery creaminess that I associate with cheesecake. I think the caramel matchaccino may have also spoiled me to some extent. While I wanted to love this one, but I am not sure it will be a reorder unfortunately.

Good to know! I’m hoping my order of this shows up tomorrow, so I can try it as well. Did you ever drink it as a smoothie?

I never tried it as a smoothie, but maybe adding Greek yogurt or something will add more of a cheesecake vibe. The flavor was pleasant, but just not what I would have expected for the name. I hope you like it!
