1st Green Tea Ice-cream review!

Finished my pasta dinner. Yep my dinners are pretty late.

Hmm this is kinda embarrassing since I can't even type out its brand name but for all the cool Chinese people that can read Kanji (basically chinese characters used in japanese context) it looks like this:


So its green tea paddle pop......ok next image


Greeeeennn @_@ kinda felt ewwww as I peeled it open probably because I kept it in my fridge for a while, alright time for the taste test!


A watery green tea taste on the outershell, its texture is like frozen ice. Then there is a surprising soft creamy green tea centre. The overall taste sweet but they haven't over done it. I would suggest this one on a hot summer's day, genuine green tea flavour on the outside really blends nicely in with the smooth centre. I get my supply from a Japanese groceries store "Anegawa" which is right below Atarmon station where all the other Japanese stores live. Also it doesn't have a funny aftertaste like you don't have to run to get a glass of water to wash down its sweetness but I don't know, everyone is different. This one goes for around $4.50 which is quite expensive for ice-cream when compared to typical Aussie products such as Paddle Pop, Peters ice-cream, etc but bare in mind this is an imported product, Made in Japan. If you are not close to Atarmon you could try the Asian groceries store in World Square they also have a large range of imported goods but not sure if they have this particular one. Anyways this is my first official ice-cream post hope you guys liked it! Love to say more but getting late and this ain't good for my HSC lol.
