For me, it was a vegetal but also tasted like sweet cream. I've yet to try it with dairy milk, but pairing it with oat really brings out the sweet cream taste
This one is a total game changer. It has a deep jade green color and when turned into latte, it was buttery, nutty, rich, and completely smooth with no bitterness or astringency. As an Okumidori girly, this will not disappoint you a hundred percent!!
Amazing matcha! The colour is bright and beautiful, the matcha is perfectly balanced, with a smooth, creamy texture, delicate umami notes and very little bitterness.
On top of that, the whole experience was also super smooth, thanks to the great communication, availability and responsiveness throughout the process. Thank you!
