Not my favourite Deb blend, but not the worst either. It’s very thin tasting with a really shallow, plain cocoa powder flavour and just a bit of toastiness from the genmai blended in. Like a chocolate Genmaicha or a very watered down hot cocoa. I think maybe more leaf and longer steep time next time?

Sipdown! (39 | 354)

This was a pleasant enough blend. Somehow not as cocoa-y as I expected it to be, given the abundance of cocoa powder making for a seriously murky cuppa. It’s mostly hojicha with subtle touches of cocoa and toasted rice. And there’s not really anything “salted” about it, I guess maybe the rice was meant to fill that role? Not sure why there isn’t just a little bit of sea salt or something to that effect.

Anyway, it’s nice but not a reorder for me. Might have to try my own concoction with cacao shells though, those seem to give the best cocoa flavor in my experience…
