This is good. A lot less bitter than I was expecting. My favourite part is the citrus which is decidedly orange. I really love how the orange elevates the tea and really brightens it up. I quite enjoy sipping this in the morning before I head to work. A solid offering from the now defunct Butiki Teas.

Flavors: Citrus, Orange

A solid tea with a lovely pumpkin flavour. I also detect a spice in here, cinnamon or clove? Very Autumnal feel to it. The butterscotch is so light in the aftertaste that you hardly recognize it and the coffee is practically non-existant. The white tea itself, shfts back and forth from smooth to bitter, depending on any given sip. Overall, it’s good. Not my favourite from Stacy but a stable offering nonetheless.

Flavors: Bitter, Butterscotch, Pumpkin, Pumpkin Spice

Lots of dried fruit (def. distinctly cranberry) and not a lot of almond. I think this blend has not aged as well as could be hoped. It is tasty, but I’m happy to have finished this sample off.

Flavors: Cranberry, Dried Fruit

Leave it to tea-sipper to both perplex me and brighten my day :)

First cup gone. Steep second for 5 minutes or so. After I pull the basket strainer from the cup, little oil blobs rise to the surface of the tea, burst and spread into iridescent splotches. When I take a sip, they disappear obviously into my mouth. Set the cup down, the blobs rise again. bloop.

By the way, this is stuff is really quite nice. Prettiest blend I’ve ever seen. Soft and flowery taste. It’s almost like a glazed lemon loaf. Probably the only Butiki tea I will ever get to try.

Flavors: Almond, Cake, Floral, Frosting, Hot Hay, Lemongrass

I’m glad you liked it! I don’t know what the heck was with the oil though. I’m very sorry to all the tea fans who didn’t get to try many Butiki teas. I’m very grateful I knew about Butiki back when they were available… I’m still amazed at the Butiki magic after all these years.

It was surprisingly good with so many years behind it. I get the feeling it would’ve been more cookie/cake and straight lemon-tasting (I was getting lemongrass) when really fresh. Thanks so much for sharing a part of Steepster past with me <3

I love this one, one of my all-time Butiki faves. I only have one cup left and I don’t want it to go! ): I’m on a hunt to find something similar and haven’t even come close, so far.

Another much beloved tea that I’ve been (very!) slowly drinking through my supply of.

It’s such a delicious, steady drink throughout a long session, gradually revealing it’s lovely buttery flavours, with underlying hints of that mature, smoke-adjacement note coming through. Delicious. I still have enough for at least a few more long sessions and I’ll treasure it whilst I do!

So it turns out this is the Puerh that I’ve been merrily sipping away at for most of this year!

It’s really very delicious. Full of stone fruit, honeyed flavours that interplay with that lovely, sweet, sheng bitterness/edge. It’s a real delight to drink, producing cup after cup of lovely amber tea, and has gotten me nicely through this rather busy spring!

Flavors: Apricot, Honey, Stonefruit

Do you like sun cha? I have a good few oz left of a 1989 suncha from Butiki. It’s really good but I don’t drink it often. Was thinking I could send you some if you liked it.

You know, I honestly don’t know if I ever tried it :o I’m looking back through my notes and I don’t think I ever reviewed it before. Maybe our second little tea-swap can finally happen – I think I probably still have some other bags of Butiki goodness that I’d be happy to share!

Nattie

I’m happy to send you some, I think you might really like it (: I’ll drop you a message!

Peppermint tea is always my “go-to” cup. I find that when I don’t know what else to have and I just can’t make my mind up, peppermint is the answer! It always makes me happy. This is a good one. Nice, clear, bright peppermint flavour with a hint of sweetness. For me, the chocolate in this just comes accross as the sweetness that I just spoke of. Personally, I can’t really pinpoint it as “chocolate” per se which is a tad disappointing but it makes such a welcome caffeine-free option when I spend so much time drinking mostly green tea.

Flavors: Peppermint, Sweet

This tea is gorgeous. There’s no other way to describe it. The smell of the dry tea leaves were promising and when steeping, the heavenly aroma was front and center. At first sip, I was in love. Fresh, juicy, sweet, luscious grapefruit in a beautifully light coloured liquid. So mild, so smooth, so soothing. I couldn’t ask for anything more. As perfect a tea as I’ve ever had and well deserving of my highest rating of any tea on Steepster so far!

Flavors: Grapefruit, Smooth, Sweet

The raspberry flavour certainly comes accross which I really enjoy. Tastes like real dried raspberrries, no artificial or chemical strangeness in here! I love quality teas and I can certainly tell the difference compared to cheap teas. I am not a tea snob but I do seem to delight in a more refined cup now and then. This one is good but it’s not one of my favourites from Stacy. The fruitiness is my favourite part but I find it a tad bitter and astringent overall and I can’t really detect the cashew. What I do detect though, is a mellow floral note which is lovely. Re-steeps wonderfully!

Flavors: Astringent, Bitter, Floral, Raspberry

Sipdown! 271/365!

Er, whoops. Didn’t realize I’d only tried this once before. But I decided to try latte-ing it tonight, but I used coconut milk and the flavours are stronger than I intended, so while it’s delicious, it’s probably because it’s basically coconut milk + cow’s milk + maple syrup with just a hint of tea. I’m picking up virtually zero blueberry (I couldn’t smell it either) – ok, actually if I taste really hard, I can sense some – but there’s not a ton of flavour despite brewing it pretty strongly. Oh well, wasn’t a favourite anyhow.

Also: current tea count is at 932 (some duplicates, yes, but fewer than 100 I believe). This is still missing a large chunk of my teas (notably Butiki and Anne’s 52teas) plus the vast majority of swap samples I have. On the plus side, I’m sipping down a lot of stuff?

i was about to say you finally made it under 1k! celebrate! but it’s missing things…so nope haha keep going!
