Lovely, airy, slightly astringent tea

"Ordered this as a sample and instantly ordered my cake. Though the soup is viscous, it is lighter, airy, and supremely sweet with a wonderful hoppy bitterness to it. If I had to pick two flavor notes they would be: raw marshmallow and hops! Great for a sweet craving."

Nathan (5/5)

sweet, good balance

"I received a sample of this and I thought it was pretty good. Well-priced for the quality. There's a lot of stuff going on, and all of it seems well-balanced. It maintains a beautiful bright gold color across the session, puts out a lot of great flavors, and has a nice cerebral buzz to it. I get some astringency, some peachy sweetness, the tiniest pinch of smoke, and an intriguing cooling sensation in the aftertaste coupled with a gentle bitterness - indeed this resembles the alpha acids and monocyclic sesquiterpenes you would find within the lupulin glands of hop plants. The leaf quality in my sample was very good - thick, wholesome leaves with some fuzzy buds, and all of it was easy to loosen by hand. Hopefully this translates well to a cake - I might pick one up in the near future, it feels like a fantastic daily drinker, and I don't think I'd be sacrificing quality to save money. This tastes great!"
