Let’s talk about how awesome Stacy is. I allowed myself ONE small order for my birthday because mostly people forgot and it was from stacy because of the red Queen Cupcake and the limited Edition Boracay Breeze. included in the package that i picked up from my tea mule were a couple samples of some of the teas that stacy’s working on. So of course….i came home and have started in on them :) This is the first one i tried – let me tell you, this smells SOOOOOOOOO delicious. The Caramel is really present while the apple is hanging out in the background. I made my other half stick his nose in the cup and his response was…caramel…fruit? smells like a baked good. soooo he couldn’t place the apple but it was close.
Brewing this up – no steeping paramters really so i opted for “oolong” setting on my kettle and let it steep for about 3mins. Initial sips i get caramel! OOLONG! and then apple. it’s roasty oolong, so that’s ok with me. The apple is mostly present in the after taste and currently, the oolong is the dominant flavour. But there is for sure, both apple and caramel here.
not sure how far along stacy is in the process, but i WILL be buying some of this when it comes out because, while i am not a fan of oolongs, i can see how delicious this one is going to be. Thank you Stacy! soo good!

Sounds so good! I love caramel apple. :D
That sample is close-ish to the final product. That will be one of the new teas we are releasing on Friday! :)
oh god.. you’re killing me Stacy. Want Moar!
Hooray! I will definitely be ordering some then! :D Are you going to be releasing the Mimosa one too?
Sil-Hahaha :)
Cameron B-Nope, sorry the Mimosa one just isn’t going to make it in time. Not sure if that one will work out. I can’t get it to stop tasting like bubblgum but it still tastes good.
And… I’m away this weekend. Leaving Friday morning. Hope you start the sale bright and early, Stacy! :)
Hah! Well I’m glad you’re not going to release it tasting like bubblegum, ew! So excited for the sale. :)
nomnom. I have never really found a good apple tea. If anyone can do it, it’d be Stacy!!
Also, happy belated birthday!
OMGsrsly-We will be previewing the sale on our blog on Thursday and everything will be available by midnight on Thursday for purchase. :)
Cameron B-I was actually thinking about just calling it orange bubblegum. It’s a really interesting flavor but I also may just scrap the mimosa idea for the puerh at least.
Indigobloom-I think the apple works so well with the Gui Fei. Delicious!
So excited for caramel apple! (I still think you should do Caramel/Pear, though; Butiki needs a killer pear tea!)
Roswell Strange-I was desperately trying to make poached pear with caramel sauce and the pear and caramel flavoring just clashed horribly. I wish that one turned out. Maybe Pear Bellini?
That could be good too; I don’t know if I’ve ever had Peach & Pear together…
Rosewell Strange-I wouldn’t add peach to that one. I’ve seen “bellini” used for things other than peaches though that is a traditional bellini. I went to this fantastic bar in NYC that had so many types of bellinis that were amazing. I think I would try doing a pear and champagne flavor but maybe add a little brandy flavor and possibly some dried rosemary.
I’m still sad about the poached pear one :(
I’m tired of eat each, so I’d much rather see something like apricot heh
I’m ordering it today Stacy, I can’t wait!! :D
I had to get some of this one, even though my BFF hates caramel and the order was (mostly) for her birthday. I’m really hoping I like it, or I’ll end up sneakily sending it to someone. :)
