All About Hojicha
I order two scoops for ice cream (discount - $0.50) but the taste for honey chrysanthemun w cacao nibs (premium - $5.20) was quite fragrant but slightly sweet and hojicha (premium - $5.20) was quite average roasted tea.
Passby this shop before during havelock 2 that time and another time was jewel last 2 mth? Decided to try their blackout brownies for premium hojicha ($7.50). I did warmed up brownies next day but I barely taste hojicha topping(dark chocolate got strong taste than hojicha) on hot temp. I decided to cut half for trying on room temp and did taste hojicha (bitter roasted tea) topping with dark chocolate.
($7.90) if u dine in but takeaway got extra fee. I really like to eat dessert first before the main served first. Pudding was quite smooth, soft and milky texture but the taste for hojicha really mid and not strong roasted tea. One of their recommendation for dessert besides their Tiramisu.
($6) decided to order hojicha Latte instead of usual matcha latte. Need to stir through before u drink if not the powder just sink inside.
(Iced - $6.50) not that bad but the hojicha taste was not that strong but then still having chance to improve more as got milky texture and also quite sweet (slightly roasted tea taste).
($8.51)Decided to try their houjicha without milk version as it's quite taste barely not much and houjicha soft serve ($1.20) just got milky and creamy texture.
I opt out for no sugar ($5.80) but taste like plain milk tea lol but jelly still have brown sugar taste so it's not that nice tbh.
It's quite milky and got slightly roasted tea taste ($9.10) but ice melted too fast tbh when I reach office bck. I think that their roasted tea was slightly thick when ice melted liao.
Finally tried their hojicha bombolinis ($4.20) at kitchener road when scrolling away during covid period. Hojicha filling was quite milky, not much roasted tea taste and thick texture. They did put icing sugar on the top of the bombolinis and felt that it's quite sweet tbh.
Got offers for 2 drinks - $5 and felt that quite sweet (a bit roasted tea taste) and milky, need to shake it before drinking as hojicha powder didn't just dissolved it off that fast.
($68)
really got strong refreshing and light taste for the cake as I really expected from it. But they paired it well with fresh lime and thyme on the top of the cake and giving out some sour and mint aftertaste.
I haven't tried huggs coffee yet especially their japanese series. I decided to try hoji-ciao (less sweet) ($8.70). I felt personally that its quite milky tbh and not much roasted tea taste. So I'm thinking that I should be trying Japanese matcha next time ?
