I have quite a bit of Butiki tea left and I think every last drop of it has been ruined :( Several of the unopened packages, that at the time I didn’t have enough bags to seal the tea in were stored next to a rose flavored tea. I have tried 3 of the remaining teas, including this one, and they are all contaminated with the rose. I am shedding lots of tears. A hard lesson learned for me about tea storage. Even for a short stent, teas taste can be greatly affected by how and where it stored.

Oh my, I had a similar experience recently, and likewise had to toss all 4+ oz of my favourite Butiki tea. It was very, very sad. :(

Rose is nice in tea, maybe it will be good but different?

AH i’m so sorry.

Yeah, had the same issue with my Butiki teas. I bought them when I was new to loose leaf and left them in the original bags. A hard lesson, but it stuck with me.

I started drinking tea while on a 4 month long cycling trip through South America. It seemed to always be a great way to warm up when I was cold and it was always available everywhere. Mate was the big tea of choice down there and it was also a great way to get to know people. When I returned home, my sister introduced me to Teavana and this launched me into the realm of loose leaf tea.
