Bluebird Tea Co. Advent Calendar — Day 11 — Mixology Matcha

Today it's another matcha — this time it's Mixology Matcha.

Ingredients: Ground green tea, ground white tea.

They describe it thus: 

Bluebird's Mixology Matcha contains rare and unique white matcha, grown at higher elevations to ensure an antioxidant boosted, even more nutrient rich cup. 

The white tea in this blend is grown in Kenya and has 3 times the normal antioxidant levels of Japanese matcha. You still get the traditional Japanese ocean taste and grass green colour, but the antioxidant levels are significantly boosted.

So, it's another matcha.

I have to admit that with the quite impressive selection of flavoured matchas available at Bluebird I'm disappointed with what has been put in the advent calendar so far. Obviously, this is personal taste and I don't know what is still to come, but if I was doing it I would have put things like cocoa, salted caramel and gingernut in as they're slightly more festive — and might even taste okay.

This is being added to the collection to try later, but unfortunately, the bottom of the packet wasn't sealed properly and some of the tea had leaked out so it won't be a full measure. But I assume there should still be enough to taste it and get some of the super-boost that it promises.

I will report back.
