Kamyria drank Buttered Rum (Organic) by DAVIDsTEA

125 tasting notes

Somebody find my socks! They’ve been blown off!

I just got this few minutes ago with my latest DT order. This is so good, it’s everything I hoped it would be. The dry tea smells of vanilla and rum… After I steep it for 5 min over the boiling water, it’s vanilla, rum, and butter… lots of butter. I detect coconut notes too. The black tea has a strong presence here and a well balanced astringency which I like.

So far so good…

Edit a bit later:

Upon re-steep the tea held its wonderful aroma and flavour, except for the black base which got a bit weaker (missing the subtle astringency). Next time I will do the first steep for only 4 min and see where it takes me. This is definitely tea I am thinking of restocking in the future.

This is one of the David’s Teas that I haven’t actually tried yet! I bought a sample of it a couple weeks ago, I’ll have to make myself a cup tonight.

Bio

It’s been a while since I joined Steepster and I think it’s time to write up a bio.

I’m a stay at home, married mom with 5 kids, most of them grown up. Only one remains with us now, my 7 year old sunshine which I push out of the house to school every morning and it’s not an easy thing to do.

I’m an avid gardener during a growing season and my goal is to grow most of the food we eat and save some for winter too. I’m also an artist and a huge nerd. I read books, I play computer games. My very first game was World of Warcraft (was addicted to it solid for a year, lol), then came Skyrim, Minecraft (with my 7 year old) and few others less memorable along the way.

I began drinking tea on regular basis just over 2 years ago when I decided to kick my morning coffee habit. It wasn’t pretty… I couldn’t function for 3 days straight but survived. A year ago I discovered loose tea and found Steepster… The rest is history.

Some of the staples in my cupboard are Dragonwell green tea, Japanese sencha, Silver Needle white tea, green roobois, darjeeling and pu’erh. I also drink variety of flavored teas for fun and I like to order tisanes and mix them with straight teas for even more variety.

Recently I found out how much I love oolong so will be stocking up on that as well.

There are few other tea lovers in my family: my mom and dad, my oldest daughter, my son and my youngest 7 year old. She loves when I try out different teas and I always have to remember to make enough for her to have a little taste.
