之藍じらん 抹茶販売店

Near the end of Tamsui Old Street, I saw a matcha dessert shop, next to the river, and an outdoor area with Japanese-style wooden and rattan tables and chairs.

The weather was too hot, so I ordered Oyama Maru matcha ice cream. The clerk suggested changing it to a cup (because the ice cream melts quickly), but the cone is an indispensable element of ice cream! Of course there has to be a cone.

This ice cream does melt quickly, so you have to eat it quickly. The texture is smooth and creamy, and the matcha flavor is moderate without any bitterness. This is the unique quality of Japanese matcha powder. Thinking back many years ago, Taiwanese green tea powder was labeled as matcha, but the taste was really different.

The cone has a sweet taste and is moderately thick and hard. Overall, the quality is quite good and highly recommended. The store will also include a single package of wet wipes printed with its own brand for easy wiping of mouth and hands.
