Review of Candyfloss (Nr. 345)
June 22nd, 2020
Aroma | Flavor | Value | Total |
7 of 10 | 3 of 5 | 3 of 5 | 65 of 100 |
Very Good | Fair | Reasonable |
Cup at home, made from leaves of green tea and what looks like tiny pieces of liquorice root and caramelised apple, cinnamon - the loose blend emits a sweet scent. Pours slightly hazy olive green (against white china) with a small layer of sediment (I used a sieve, not a filter). Clear aroma of green tea leaves, with notes of fruit and caramel and mild touches of cinnamon. Bitterish flavour of green tea, with mild touches of lozenge and apple and hints of cinnamon. Somewhat astringent palate with an aftertaste of green tea and candy floss. Reasonable but I had expected more sweetness, given the aroma of the loose leaves. Fair price (42 DKK per 100 g).
