Sarutahiko Coffee "Flower Strawberry Latte"
Flower strawberry latte!

I drank the limited-time menu " Flower Strawberry Latte" from Sarutahiko Coffee. You can enjoy the mild sweetness of syrup containing flower herbs, bittersweet coffee, and soft milk on the palate.

A calling machine that looks like a playing card given to people using the store. Sounds when ready.

The price is 550 yen (tax included) for in-store use, and you can choose hot or ice cream. I made it hot this time. Steam milk is poured into a rich espresso, strawberry sauce with Italian mascarpone, homemade syrup is added, and finally strawberry powder is topped.

The syrup contains 5 types of dried herbs, elderflower, damask rose, hibiscus, lavender, and rose red petal, and is boiled.

Strawberry powder. Slightly sour

It looks like a pretty complicated drink. I expected it to have a strong aroma like herbal tea, but when I put it in my mouth, it had a mild and gentle taste, and neither the aroma of coffee nor the aroma of honey was outstanding. Mascarpone cheese and strawberry sauce are also slightly felt on the tongue. The acidity of the strawberry powder is also a little accented.

Latte art is also pretty

If you speak without prior knowledge, you may not be able to distinguish each and every subtle flavor. However, the gentle sweetness and bitterness that are the base are intertwined with each other, and when you drink it, you will feel relaxed.
