Buttered Rum (Organic)

Also tried it in the David’s tea advent calendar. Love it. Want to buy some.

Stacey: The taste isn’t as strong as the smell; I think the coconut gets lost in the black tea mix. The flavour they were going for, the buttered rum, is strongest after your sip- it sits on your tongue and sticks to your mouth. It’s a smooth tea, which is probably the vanilla coming through. It’s not a drink I would have every day but it’s a good specialty tea to sip after a brisk evening walk. 6/10.

Brooke: Agreed, what a treat! Overall, this tea has a heavy base with smooth savoury flavour. Though I don’t taste the coconut, the ingredients mixed well together to create a soft blend that reminded me of chocolate without the cocoa. It’s a very sweet tea; no sugar needed. Maybe add a drop of milk but we both drank it black. I usually like my teas a little lighter but overall it was a lovely brew. 7/10

This was day one of my 24daysoftea and boy did it start off right. Such a wonderful smelling tea. I loved how rich and creamy it tasted. I had it with milk and it was perfect for the cold winter morning and is something that I will consider buying more of. I can’t wait to try it iced and as a latte.

24 Days of Tea (day 1)

I love tea…. I love Rum…. Tea… Rum…. Tea.. Rum.. Tea. Rum. I think I see a wonderful combination here… The smell was wonderful, and the taste? Very enjoyable! Not sure if I could detect the rum in the tea, but it was definitely a great cup of tea ;)

This is one that I can see trying again

yummy..better with milk or as a Late.
Heading to Cuba next week going to bring some with me and add some Cuban rum…should be delightful :-)

Love the vanilla in it! Very good black tea. Very good start. Can’t wait to taste the other tea in my 24 days of tea of DAVIDs TEA.

I was excited to try this tea as soon as I opened it up, great smell. This tea is creamy with a buttery flavor. So good with milk and honey. Next time I’ll have to try it spiked with some rum :)

I think this tea is really true to the idea of “buttered rum,” and I appreciate it for that reason. It’s not crazy flavorful, but it’s comforting and tasty with just the right amounts of coconut and vanilla. I’ll have to try it with some brown sugar and maybe some milk for added creaminess, but it’s perfectly delicious plain and hot as well!

Buttery, nice, don’t think I could do it all the time though.
