From Butiki Teas

Our Maple Pecan Oolong utilizes our Nilgiri Frost Oolong base. This smooth, silky tea has maple notes that develop into pecan notes then finish with maple notes that linger. Some citrus notes may also be detected. The flavors weave together brilliantly and are well balanced with the oolong base. With a little sugar the maple and pecan intensify for a wonderful desert treat that resembles a pecan pie. We recommend adding sugar slowly; too much sugar and the tea will taste like exactly like fresh maple syrup with a hint of pecan.

Ingredients: Nilgiri Frost Oolong, Pecans, Organic Natural Flavoring (vegan)

Recommended Brew Time: 4 minutes
Recommended Amount: 1 1/2 teaspoons of tea for 8oz of water
Recommended Temperature: 170 F degrees

Omgno I’m down to the dregs of this and just oversteeped by a long time. Sobbing. So upset! (Not ACTUALLY sobbing.) This got bitter and it’s all my fault ahhh.

Butiki Teas

I’m a chronic oversteeper. If you ever oversteep just dump out a little tea and add more hot water. Keep doing that until it tastes perfect. I’ve saved many cups of tea this way. :)

I sweetened this with dark maple syrup this morning. I felt like I was being naughty and almost stopped myself, but then I didn’t because I just didn’t want to live with that regret.

So gooood.

I find sweetening this one with maple syrup is the way to go! And I never sweeten my teas

My first sip of this was so strong I didn’t want to take a second, however I’m glad I did! Be careful if you add sugar as this is already a sweet tea! It reminds me of a Tim Hortons maple glazed donut, so tasty!

Oh Deliriums Frogs how i love you… let me count the ways.:) Another terrific tea swap from Deliriums Frogs. There are lovely, large pecan pieces in the dry tea. Both the maple and the pecans come through well. The tea is slightly sweet even without my friend Stevia. It is quite enjoyable and is a nice comfort, dessert tea. I wouldn’t stock it but i would drink more.

I’m so glad that you like it! That one is so lovely…
My swaps with you and Marzipan were my first ever Steepster swaps—how lucky am I?!

Ooooh… this is one of my favourite flavoured teas.
The maple is so natural and balanced, with hints of yeasted waffle dancing around the pecan. mmmmm!!
I was looking for a sweeter tea, since I’m trying to avoid eating the cake sitting on my counter (I’m finally beginning to realize that sugary starches mess with my body big time….), and this is absolutely perfect.
I can always trust that a flavoured tea from Butiki will never taste fake, and I love that. This is perfect. :)

I finally found back my sample and this is amazing! I am not the world’s biggest oolong fan, but, in this case, I can make an exception. The oolong is rich and buttery smooth, the maple and pecan are easily recognizable and compliment the flavour of the oolong beautifully. This was perfect without sweetener as is has more than enough natural sweetness all on its own. Hot, the oolong flavour was the dominant flavour but, as the tea cooled the pecan became more and more apparent.

This tea totally made my evening!

CharArray

Totally agree with the last sentence! It was a different experience after the tea cooled down.

mewakeling

It was! I think I might have actually liked it even better as a cooled down tea!

I have no idea why I decided to order exactly this tea since I am not the greatest fan of dark oolongs, and I definitely have had no luck with the flavored blends that consist of dark oolongs. Of course, my experience is that a blend from Butiki would be different. But still, dark oolong… I must have just thought this sounded really good at the time of ordering.

Well, either way, I am glad I got it, dark oolong or not. I had it last night. I was pretty surprised at huge pecan chunks. The oolong leaves were fragrant, graphite black and wiry. The brew was not too overwhelmingly fragrant but I could definitely find hints of the sweetness of maple and the nuttiness of pecans.

Oh, it was yummy! It was like eating a pecan pie only FAR, FAR better because pecan pies are drastically too sweet for me. And the flavoring, as always with Butiki teas, tastes sooo natural. I don’t think it will ever cease to amaze me how their teas are done. The base oolong was marvellous and I can see how its smokiness adds to the nuttiness, how it actually becomes the pecan notes.

The best thing about blenders as awesome as Stacy is that you can actually experience how they figured out this or that would make a great combination with this or that base, see how perfectly logical it is, and how obvious, and at the same time you know you could never really come up with it yourself. It’s like with literature or paintings, you read a poem, you see a painting and you’re like “This is so simple, and so obvious to put it this way, now that I see it” – and yet, you know you would never do the same thing. Something else, maybe. But not THIS.

Haha, this tea inspires musings even though I had it last over 13 hours ago :D :D

This tea is fantastic! I enjoy it hot and haven’t tried it iced. This is unusual for me, but when I have small amounts of a tea, I’m less likely to make up a whole iced tea pitcher. And, when something is so good the first way you try it, it’s hard to try it any other way.

I am absolutely amazed that the pecan taste is so realistic. It’s very natural, right down to the slight astringency like effect that pecan skins can have for me. And, I’m not put off the way nut-flavored teas often do to me. The maple flavoring is also fantastic and why I bought the tea in the first place. I love maple flavoring. The aftertaste has a lovely long-lasting maple sweetness to it. The tea base is on the sour end of the tea spectrum, a bit astringent with a touch of woody flavor, and not sweet. Any sensation of sweetness is all due to the maple flavoring I think. It certainly isn’t like any oolong I’ve had before. I honestly wasn’t sure what I thought of it at first, but it has really grown on me. It matches the flavorings perfectly.

I like this pretty well. It reminds me very much of pecan pie with some maple in the recipe. The one thing that puts me off a little bit about this tea is that the finish is a little bit dry and almost a bit chalky. Maybe I’ll try a shorter steep time. It would probably be great with some sugar. But besides the after-texture, the tea is wonderful.
