drank Maple Pecan Oolong by Butiki Teas
652 tasting notes

Wowwwww…. This was so good. I wasn’t sure what to expect but sure enough it’s maple pecan!

I admit the only other two oolongs I’ve ever tried were green rolled up leaves so I was surprised to see these were black, that just speaks to my inexperience though.

This was a great tea, sweet enough but with a little additional maple syrup it was mind blowingly good. I’m pretty much Buddy the Elf’s slightly less elfin little sister in that I could probably drink maple syrup from the bottle, so take that with a grain of salt, no such thing as too much maple.

I am interested to see how I can get 11 cups out of my little 1oz bag though! Feels like half of that in order to get a good flavor (I’m using Davidstea’s perfect spoonful)

I would reorder this as it’s really well done!

it’s so weird, I could drink tea RIGHT before bed (literally IN bed) and it doesn’t keep me up, however if I have a cup of coffee at 3pm I am tossing and turning for hours!!

I can’t even eat chocolate passed 4pm. I made chocolate cupcakes today and I know I’ll be up until 1am.

Hello!

I love tea. I love my mini-me daughter, my husband, my dog Wally, Netflix, shopping, and tea. Some other stuff too, but these are the most important!

Some favourites -

My new favourite tea company is A Quarter to Tea. I love the flavouring used and how it doesn’t seem fake, and the combinations are so delicious. Right up my alley.

My favourite teas are black, I love Laoshan Black and Taiwanese Wild Mountain Black tea from TTC. Also many of Teavivre’s black teas.

Butiki teas RIP, I loved how the flavours were subtle and not fake tasting and didn’t overwhelm the tea base. Trust that I am dramatically mourning the loss of this company!

Teavivre, Whispering Pines and Mariage Freres are some more tea companies I appreciate. Along with Davidstea as it was the ‘gateway drug’ to my tea addiction. Though I’m mostly over it now, I’ve definitely moved on from the artificially flavoured teas and am trying more quality straight teas!

My ultimate goal is to try as many French teas as possible – and to finally find a source in Canada for Mariage Freres so I can buy Wedding Imperial, and Black Orchid for sure.

I would like to try any Taiwanese Assams that exist in the world!

Also continuously on the hunt for Fauchon – La Naissance. If anyone has some of this I would pay for it!!! It’s my number one all time favourite tea.

When I rate, it goes like this:

85 -100 = WIN! awesome, I love this and keep it on hand
70 – 85 = pretty darn good but I don’t NEED to own it
55 – 70 = not necessarily terrible but not a tea for me!
30 – 55 = missed the mark as far as I am concerned. Wouldn’t drink it willingly.
0 – 30 = I likely won’t rate this low very often, so if you see it, consider the tea a great big FAIL and probably disgusting.
