about
I’ve really enjoyed drinking green teas since I was of some young age, and I remember the first non-matcha tea that I enjoyed was (and what I now know is called) genmaicha. I’m not really sure where my matcha interest started, but I suspect it was either with mochis from Japan or those green tea mochi ice creams from the freezer section of a well-stocked oriental store.
Today, I’d say my favorite tea latte to enjoy is a matcha latte. Particularly the unsweetened ones… which seem to be the “new” trend as of late with these baristas asking if I’m fine with them serving their matchas unsweetened. And I am, of course, though partially because I tend to prefer unsweetened or very lightly sweetened treats anyway.
Nonetheless, here I will keep record of where I’ve gotten a matcha / matcha latte. Why? Just because it seems like it would be fun to look back on in the future.
