Yo.

So further research on matcha revealed to me that I may have used water that was too hot, which may have messed with the flavor. So today I:

1) used water at the oft-recommended temperature of 175 degrees;

2) used the higher recommended amount of matcha powder (1 teaspoon)

Picture of result:

And the taste?

Yup. Still nothing.

I reiterate from yesterday: my chemical senses are so broken, man.
