I may or may not have had this before. There are way too many reviews to wade through to see if I have reviewed it before.
I quite like pistachio’s. I love pistachio pudding and ice cream. So I figured it is pretty much a given I will like this tea.
The dry tea smells quite nutty. Not pistachio, maybe hazelnuts (?).
The brewed tea tastes strongly of the green tea base. It is vegetal and creamy. I added a few pieces of brown rock sugar on the suggestion from the description of this tea. But it didn’t bring out any pistachio or ice cream flavours. I am getting a bit of a nutty spice. There are a few hints of vanilla but unfortunately still no pistachio or ice cream. Hmmm…
I will have to steep this again to see if I get better results.
Edit: It becomes more pistachio tasting as it cools to about luke warm, but still not the creamy nutty ice cream taste I was expecting.
