Nescafe Gold Latte




There's not a lot of difference between this Nescafe Gold Latte and Nescafe Azera latte - both contain the same ingredients - dried milk powder, syrup, lactose, coconut oil, instant coffee and a pinch of ground coffee. The difference is in the amount of ingredients and how they are blended. I haven't drunk them side by side, but this reminds me of the Azera. It's dry, dull, and lacking in the sweet, creamy fun I want from a frothy coffee.

Pukka Supreme Matcha Green (Green Collection)





This is the best of the Pukka Green Collection - this is pure green teas. A blend of Sencha, Pin Ho Wild Jade, and Indian green teas, plus a sprinkling (2%) of Jeju Island Emerald Matcha powder. It's bright and refreshing with a delightful seaweed flavour combined with an attractive and natural sweetness.  I really like this.

Pukka Clean Matcha Green (Green Collection)




This is an attractive blend. It's kind of like the traditional nettle and fennel or the modern version of mint and licorice. There's the dark sweetness of the fennel, combined with light citric almost minty notes. The whole is gently informed by an earthy green tea flavour. This is a subtle, tasty, and relaxing tea. We like it.

This is very tasty. A little too subtle at times, but well balanced, tasty and interesting.
