Rachel J drank Almond Indulgence (Formerly Almond Cookie) by Butiki Teas

110 tasting notes

1 tbsp (a little scant) in 16 oz

Really glad I picked up some of this. I’m not usually one for flavored tea, but based on reviews and the flavors I like, I decided to try this and Butiki’s Maple Pecan Oolong.

The flavoring in this is sooooo pleasant! Subtle but very present. For me, it needed a tsp of sugar (for the 16oz) to complement the flavoring but not because the tea was bitter or astringent at all.

I will have this when I want a comforting cup that’s not too fancy. :)

Preparation

195 °F / 90 °C 4 min, 0 sec

Bio

I happily reside in Park Slope, Brooklyn with my husband, our baby son, and our dog. I teach over 40 piano students per week at my home studio and created “Fundamental Keys”, a classical piano method book and video series.

My husband and I are vegan and have been for about 8 years. We are enjoying bringing up our little one in the vegan tradition!

I went through a major tea phase some years ago (2006-2009) and had quite a collection and tasted hundreds of varieties. Then I went off caffeine when I decided to have a baby, and after he was born I got into a nasty coffee habit. Now I’ve come back to tea, thank goodness. I’m finding my tastes have changed quite a bit since my first go at tea fanaticism. Really enjoying some of the amazing and deliciously complex teas I’ve learned about through Steepster!
