This is officially a favorite and something I want to be a staple. Clearly, a few other people get it in bulk and make it their staple too because it keeps selling out. It is no wonder, though, because the tea is that good. I guess everyone wants to commit cremes. It’s pretty flexible under my tumbler, and less is more with the approach. It can actually gong fu, but western serves it well. I know the jin xuan is flavored too, but there are natural florals that blend seamlessly with the violet, and it’s not an overly spinachy base either.
I’m not sure what to rate it since I’d almost do a hundred, but I’m doing 95….for now. My friends have also deeply enjoyed it. It’s really more of an late eventing tea, but I can drink it any time.

Earlier this year my friend Marika bought them out of it entirely – it’s definitely a favourite of us both.
It’s always been sold out any time I’ve checked the site…
How many grams? I got 2 2 oz to have some lol
I think she bought something like 400g of it
Shit.
One day it will be available again and that’s when I shall try this company. One day.
I joined the mailing list to get it. I stalked the website for a month until it restocked.
I feel your pain…
Is this a Whispering Pines level of desperation?
Thanks for tip about the mailing list :|
Close. Brutaliteas is not as expensive or snobby as Whispering Pines, but I had that level of Desperation as I did for frickin’ Rivendell. There are good teas for the bases though. This is actually not an expensive tea at all-like $13 for 2 oz, and Evoolong is actually a really good pure Jade Oolong.
I’ve made peace with never drinking Rivendell again… But I want to partake in Voilet Cremes with all of you :P
Same lol
I’d ask for a small sample of this in our swap, but you’re probably hoarding it. :P
I’ll put it in. Luckily, I got 4 oz worth in two bags, so it will be easy to share.
Thanks! :)
I too am stalking the site for this one to place my first order with this company.. someday y’all we will all get to try this!! :D
There may be some available right now, fyi! ;)
I’m not sure I can order any in time because shipping to Canada is iffy apparently (I should’ve inquired directly sooner, I guess), but the rest of you should go for it!
Damn that went fast.
Reached out to them and sounds like there’s more coming in a few weeks. Trying this once and for all is now my tea priority, haha.
If those Violet Cremes are as good as they smell, getting them is indeed a good tea priority. :) You’ll have to let us know what shipping is like to Canada.
Have you tried the amount I’ve sent yet? I may have repacked it yet, but I don’t remember.
No, I haven’t tried it, though it smells lovely. I’m focusing on the teas I’m putting into my swap boxes so I can finally send them out. You’re getting two Baozhongs that I think you’ll enjoy. :)
YES!
Yes! I’m curious to see what you think when you eventually get around to trying it, Leafhopper :)
I was one of the peeps that decided to snag some thanks to the restock announcement, so thank you!
