So, steeped this for like 5 minutes on accident. xD Got way too excited messaging Sarsonator about Rifftrax. If you have no idea what Rifftrax is, look it up. It’s like one of the greatest things in the world! XD
This is pretty malty, but not too strong. I love the cocoa notes in this tea, it’s just a perfect combo of chocolate and malt. ^^ Another win from Whispering Pines!

Oh my word! This one is delicious! :O
I made it hot, of course. xD And had thought it might be more of a sour kiwi flavor. But boy was I wrong! It’s strong, but sweet. So so sweet.
One of the best fruity teas I’ve ever had!
Thanks for the sample, mj! (:

Wasn’t sure if I’d like this tea because of the orange, but I decided to request it as a sample. It’s pretty good. The orange is definitely there, which is why I probably won’t buy any of this. But the flavors of marshmallow and dark chocolate put me on the fence about it. There’s so much marshmallow and dark chocolate tastes in this-it’s amazing! I love that part of it! Just the orange isn’t for me…so yeah, kinda on the fence. :S

This one surprised me. More than anything, it smelled malty as the tea was steeping. But when I drink this there’s no malty-ness at all. It’s really sweet, kinda like fruity almost. Not what I expected but pretty good! (:
Thanks so much for the sample, kimquat!

I’ve only had one other Irish Breakfast, which was from Tealux. That one was a lot creamier. And this one of course is pretty much just malty.
Both are good though. I do love those malty teas. ^^

Ehhh this one wasn’t for me. Was hoping it would be more chocolate-y. But it tasted really fruity. Raspberry maybe? Just not my kind of flavor. :P
Thanks for the sample though, mj!

Got this as one of my samples from Butiki!
This is yet another lovely tea from there. It has a strong lemon flavor but enough creaminess to not let it be sour. But it has more of a slant towards being sour. Least compared to other lemon teas I’ve had recently that are softer on the lemon flavor.
But anywho, this is another great lemon tea! So glad to finally try this one! ^^

Bought this tea from Shadowfall the other week. Oh my word, I should have just bought this when I ordered from Butiki. 0_0
Pecans are my favorite nuts. But I’m not really a fan of tea that’s too nutty. So it’s good the maple flavor is strong in this tea, otherwise I wouldn’t like it as much. It’s so sweet and nutty at the same time.
This tea is absolutely glorious!

It’s a bummer to underestimate how bad you are feeling. Especially when it comes to tea. I shouldn’t try new teas when I feel depressed. Don’t think I enjoy trying new teas as much when I feel this way. I knew last night was bad, but I didn’t expect to have a sad morning too xD So I’ll have to write a better review of this tea when I feel better.
This one wasn’t as strong as I thought it might be, but it was pretty good still.
I love how the tea itself looks, but it’s so hard to know how much to steep at once and how much not to. xD It said two tsp, but it’s hard to know how much it actually means by that. Well maybe it’s just me that’s confused!
As for taste this tasted a lot like honey and kinda fruity. One of the descriptions for the tea is “raisins”. And ya know, it kinda does taste like that a bit.
I hate raisins usually, but I still like this tea. Another great tea from Butiki! (:
Now on to comfort teas…

Mmmm soo roasty! ^^ So much better than the last genmaicha I tried that mainly tasted like green tea. This one is actually roasty.
