drank Buttered Rum (Organic) by DAVIDsTEA
268 tasting notes

Well, this tea has the buttered part of the buttered rum in spades; the rum part not so much. Really, all I’m getting is butter but I want the coconut to come out because coconut and I are BFFL. I can’t find the coconut though. Sad face. I’m going to resteep this now and add the recommended sugar and milk and see what happens.

Yes, always add milk and sugar to this one. Now the coconut shows up as well as the vanilla:-). This tones down the butter, which also helps. I mean, I like butter as much as the next girl but I don’t want to drink a cup of straight butter. Thanks to Virginia for this tropical treat!

Also, I watched WAY TOO MUCH Hannibal yesterday. I had to sleep with the lights on LOL. That girl that hid under beds freaked me out too much!!

It’s been raining all weekend so it’s been a Hannibal marathon! I’m on season two now.

Ost

Ahh isn’t it just so good?
I should really re-watch it all again..

It is so good! Is it just me, or does Hugh Dancy remind you a bit of Hugh Jackman with his facial expressions?

Ost

You know…he kinda does sometimes, now to think of it xD
Haha that’s so random!

Bio

Tea-obsessed, book worm scientist.

I love black tea, especially Chinese black tea- I’m looking at you Fujians and Yunnans! I also enjoy Indian teas, mostly first flush darjeelings (and a select few assams).
I think I’m recently starting to like oolongs better though- gasp! I’ve been cheating on my black teas with all these lovely, alluring green floral oolongs. Sorry I’m not sorry.
White tea gets a lot of love too! I am particularly fond of silver needle whites.
I can’t seem to appreciate green teas and rooibos is foul, IMO.

Other interests: Books! Board games! Nerdy entertainment like Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones, Sherlock, all the nature documentaries, etc etc. Also Disney!

I’m up for swaps!
