Overall Rating: 3/5
Summary: The green tea jam is finely grainy (which I really liked) and creamy. The texture of the outer layer is awesomely chewy and glutinous and the powder is a great addition. Flavour-wise, you can definitely taste the green tea, but it's subtle. I'd give it a 3.5 overall if I weren't wary of the controversial ingredients and clueless about the brand (virtually no info online about the brand).

Oh man, the ingredients are something I'd rather not think about...it's got added sugar, controversial food colourings, and just doesn't offer much to the body...at all! It's basically empty calories so I wouldn't really recommend this product *unless* you're a huge green tea buff, you don't need to worry about counting calories, and you're not planning to make this a staple in your cupboard.
I prefer the Peanut flavour -- it has fewer controversial ingredients and tastes richer and yummier!
