So for my before-breakfast tea this morning I decided to drink the penultimate cup of my maple-pecan oolong tea, and therefore almost the last there ever will be, for me at least, as Butiki tea is closing down. It is a mournful occasion. My wife is angry now, because she doesn’t want me to finish it, she wants to frame it and worship it, make a shrine to this maple-pecan tea; it’s that good. I don’t think Butiki teas has any commandments against graven images.
I brewed this tea according to the instructions. What can I say that already has been said in a much more eloquent manner? It tastes exactly like it should, nutty, maple, creamy and delicious. Probably my favourite tea from Butiki teas. Unfortunately for us we only found out about this company as she was going out of business. I see a pattern emerging in my life; all my favourite musicians are dead, and now my favourite tea company is on its way out too!
I’m just happy that I got to enjoy this tea before the supply became extinct. I’m sad that others will not.
Flavors: Caramel, Creamy, Maple, Maple Syrup, Pecan
