I have a food blog because I love to eat and I want to share my experiences with my friends and family. I don’t write to earn money or to get free food. But when I get an email that I will be receiving a green tea cheesecake to sample it makes me realize that I’m a lucky, lucky girl.
I was expecting a small cheesecake instead I received a whole green tea cheesecake. It was sent to my store and usually I’m very patient about not touching food until I can bring it home and take pictures of it properly.
Since it’s not just plain cheesecake but green tea which is my favorite flavor I was only able to take this lone picture with my iPhone before I attacked it with a spoon.
When I took a bite of the cheesecake my first thought was it’s not rich enough. You can’t tell from the picture but the texture was maybe half the density of real New York cheesecake. I also thought that the green tea flavor wasn’t enough.
As I ate more cheesecake I appreciated the smooth texture and the lingering flavor of the matcha powder. The taste stayed on my tongue long after I finished eating.
I can guarantee that this cheesecake will keep fresh for 1 week in the refrigerator because that’s how long I kept it in a air tight glass container. I would eat a small slice almost everyday and I liked it more and more each day. Since the cheesecake wasn’t too heavy it wasn’t nakakasuya. It was perfect for a little after meal dessert.
Gregory Guy’s cheesecake has a well balanced flavor and texture. It’s the kind of cheesecake that will please a wider range of people even those who lean towards a denser type of cheesecake like me. I will definitely order the coffee cheesecake next.
Greg’s only 25 and I can see he will have many years of success in his future with his cheesecakes. Hopefully he’ll branch out with other desserts too soon.
