It's a bit chilly these days when the sun isn't out—how's everyone doing?
When autumn comes around, you want to relax with a nice cup of tea, right?
Well, just in time for the season, we received "Tea Liqueur made with Reeves Company's tea," a collaboration with "Attack on Titan," from KURAND. Thank you!
I'm sure KURAND intended to help people relax, both mentally and physically, with the flavor of tea while enjoying a bit of alcohol.
But the heavy drinker, Reika, said,
"What's the point of drinking alcohol if you don't get drunk?!"
So, this time, we're going to review it by trying out various ways to drink it.
KURAND × Attack on Titan Collaboration Vol. 2: "Tea Liqueur made with Reeves Company's tea" Appears! Now Accepting Reservations
"Attack on Titan" Collaboration Packaging


This liqueur is said to have been created by the Reeves Company that appears in "Attack on Titan," so the packaging has an antique feel that fits the world of the anime perfectly.

When you open the box, the bottle is wrapped in cloth, giving it a very luxurious presentation.
The anticipation before pouring is just irresistible!

It also comes with an instructional booklet about the Reeves Company and the alcohol, which is also cool with its antique style!
First, the Aroma

A rich aroma of cacao and black tea wafts out.
Some people might find it smells a bit like brown sugar syrup.
Unlike some strong alcohols that make you go, "Gah!" when you sniff them, this has a pleasant, moderate alcohol aroma with a sweet liqueur scent that is very addictive.
With a smell like this, it seems easy to drink straight, one of the recommended ways to enjoy it.
A Review of Different Ways to Drink!

First, let's try it on the rocks.

"This is so good..."
The flavors of black tea and cacao are perfectly balanced, a taste I've never experienced before.
It's sweet from the cacao, but it doesn't taste like chocolate, and the black tea flavor comes through afterward.
What a sophisticated drink...!
Reika: "The taste is so interesting, I could drink this forever!"
She is “too sophisticated.” (Quote, quote.)
Next, let's try it with water!

Let's mix it with a stirrer...

"The flavor is a bit too weak..."
When I drink it with water, I feel like the flavor I tasted on the rocks is a bit too weak...
It was a mistake to be a coward and not try it straight.
Next time, I'll definitely give it a shot.
Still, even though the flavor is weaker than on the rocks, it's definitely still present, so I recommend this way of drinking for people who don't want to feel the alcohol.
If you want to fully enjoy the rich flavor, straight or on the rocks is the way to go!
KURAND's Recommended "Milk Mix"!

"When you add milk, it tastes just like milk tea! Kids will definitely like it!"
*Do not let children drink alcohol.
Reika said this was her favorite way to drink it.
The milk indeed makes it so mellow, I almost found myself wanting to drink glass after glass.
A hot milk mix would probably be delicious during this season.
"Tea Liqueur made with Reeves Company's tea" is now on sale!

The "Tea Liqueur made with Reeves Company's tea," a brand-new flavor of alcohol we received from KURAND,
was a product where you could feel the care put into both the taste and the packaging, and you could enjoy it both before and after drinking it.
Reika was so happy to receive the alcohol that she even showed it off on her live stream.

It's only available to order online, so be sure to order it from the official KURAND website!
