Kimochi Posted January 5, 2019 Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 Saw a long queue mostly youngsters queueing for it. Whats so special about it ? Isit because its new (just like llaollao and gong cha last time when they launch) I can smell that its very sweet from around 6 meters away.. Discuss.

Nipoet Posted January 5, 2019 Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 Basically Caramel Milk Tea. Probably nice because of the external stripes from the caramel. If you asked for 0% sugar, the caramel would still add some sweetness to the drink. Tried mine from LiHo; not very fantastic. Kept thinking about the diabetes I would get if I were to request for 100% sugar instead. O.o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crispy96 Posted January 5, 2019 Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 oh man I swear it is NOT a hype at all. Before my first time having Tiger Sugar, I was relatively happy with whatever Brown Sugar drink from other brands. But after I tried Tiger Sugar, the benchmark shifted so high I got so so disappointed drinking the Koi's one a few days later. The brown sugar taste is wholesome, unpretentious, has good depth of flavour and not even the slightest bit of bitter aftertaste. I wish they have more outlets.

zephin Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 Ummm. It's fresh milk, not really meant for those lactose intolerant.

lovehandle Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 it is actually gula melaka/ palm sugar a must in Chendol which Zep has mentioned Not sure how s Kimochi's nose so strong, can smell from Far Can ask for less sugar too , although i dont really take such drinks (unless it is under colleagues' suggestion to get them when we r out) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in SG you see so many go for green tea in a bottle, that's like 6-7 tsp of sugar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibelius Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 I tried the tiger sugar tea without milk, I think it tastes very much like grassjelly drink. I also tried a sip of tiger sugar milk, just tastes like milk with brown sugar. I feel this is totally not worth the hype, a little expensive and nothing special at all. Going to be like all the other food fads, soon to be eliminated in a year or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be like all the other food fads, soon to be eliminated in a year or two. now u know ? but sadly i think the fad wont get eliminated in 2years time in fact the taiwanese bubble tea enter sg as a restaurant concept decades ago (even quipped with singing performance) the fad dies down and then in the late 2000s, it came back w Koi* and GongCha (no long concept of restaurant w snacks items) leading the whole market and for past few years, bread talk and whole world keep vying the mkt from Li Ho Now it s getting worse : this week opened a new store (all of u shd know its names if u drink, i dont, it kept popping up from my fb pg) as well as Msia and i trust all such shallow food lovers alrdy knew the alchohol version: https://sg.asia-city.com/city-living/news/heytea-second-outlet-opening-2019?fbclid=IwAR37QQL33_vlQJUhaSDIdZrq8xKtF0CTrllqqwNzkDOG7mnzdOs7AQljIUY as well as mala pot and bubble tea - making all might as well dont resist it Chinatown point is a breeding point of such : from their tian ren cha to endless tiger *: despite the concept has changed , now with just smaller store , Kois and some attempted to add chairs for short conversation stay for their customers too All the kids been telling me Koi is the best amongst all and adults (gals esp) the media (cant rem which paper) did a test too - they tested tonnes of cups (not 10 or 20 ) Observing such disruptive services like Ofo/obike and grab is my interests all my postings (if i personally dont experience them)- nt just about bb tea, i will ensure that i analyse their reports, get from media , check on the tests ( over a period of time, not observing just for a short while and started sprouIng) before i share Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
