Made this as a cold brew and really didn’t love it. Getting lots of apple and raisins, but no pineapple flavor at all.

Still absolutely delicious, but my least favorite of the ethereal flight. Entirely a personal preference, as I prefer matcha with a deeper, rich profile rather than a bright profile and this is incredibly lush and bright. Super bright green. Snap peas cooked in butter.

Flavors: Butter, Grass, Snow Peas, Vegetal

Much more vibrant and bright than Hikari or Satoshi. Very mild. Smooth, grassy, with really subtle vegetal notes (raw veg not cooked).

Flavors: Bright, Grassy, Vegetal

My favorite of the ethereal flight. So incredibly smooth, not a trace of bitterness (like all Breakaway Matcha blends). Creamy dark chocolate.

I love Breakaway Matcha. I’ve been so spoiled by their matchas that I can’t really enjoy others anymore. I treated myself to the ethereal flight that they offer to try out some of their more luxurious offerings.
This is lovely and shares a lot of similarities with Blend Hikari (which was my favorite of the ethereal flight). Notes of dark chocolate and cooked greens. Not getting any grassiness. Not bright, but deep and rich.

Flavors: Dark Chocolate

This definitely got more delicious as it got older and closer to the bottom of the bag. Really lovely combination of woody cedar and smooth, creamy vanilla.

I wish Whispering Pines would recreate some of the blends of past!

Did a very short cold brew to finish this off, and it was quite tasty. Added a tiny bit of honey and mixed it with mango juice. Super refreshing.

Finished off a 1oz bag. The last couple cups in this bag were significantly better than the first. The vanilla must have all sunk to the bottom.
