This is so amazing! It’s like a 2nd flush Darjeeling meets a Yunnan black. Out of all the black teas I’ve been drinking in the morning, this needed absolutely nothing added to it.
I taste nuttiness, honey, chocolate, and just a nice touch of floral notes to it. Maybe a bit of caramel too! The caramel especially comes out now that the remaining tea has cooled a lot.
It’s a very mild tea, I found myself sipping it very easily, without even thinking about the taste, other than about how good it tastes!
I’d definitely get more of this in the future, I really wanted to take advantage of Butiki’s sale yesterday but I couldn’t justify it, and I tried to get my mom to buy even $15 of it and she just tells me she doesn’t like tea (and 10 minutes later she liked the chocolate tea I had last night when I gave her the mug to try it). Oh well. I’ll have money one day.
LOL that reminds me of that movie, He’s just not that into you, or something like that. Your mum… she just isn’t that into tea!
i LOVE this tea from butiki. It’s up there with laoshan black imo.
