i have tried it in lots of different teas. It only goes okay in black teas. I found that when adding milk, I had to add sugar to make it delicious. just milk alone caused me to regret. [and i always add cream to coffee]
that make sense i think :3 though, that actually remind me, i HAVE had milk with maccha as a maccha latte and that was pretty good ^^

did you mean milk in koucha is popular in japan?! Seems a spurious claim. also do i come off like a peon if i call it genmaicha? is it two different things? i called it that because i had forgot the name and googled it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
Yes! :3 koucha with milk is pretty popular, but generally as a packaged beverage. They also serve maccha lattes at some coffeeshops/restaurants ^^ And omgosh no, you not wrong at all saying genmaicha. Koucha is black tea :3 Genmaicha is a brown rice green tea, sencha is ordinary green tea and maccha is green tea that is ground to a powder and mixed into hot water rather than steeping leaves and removing them ^^ there others too, but i can't recall them off the top of my head. some are particularly woody tasting ^o^
