I made a joint Butiki order with my coworker. It’s her first time trying Butiki teas and she chose this one to try first. She loved it! And it smelled so good that I asked her if I could steal a cup from her. I ordered this the first time I made a Butiki order but there was something about it I didn’t like, and I sent the rest off in a travelling tea box. I am not the biggest fan of maple to begin with, and I think I found it smelled and tasted a little like chlorine, and when I smelled the bag of the dry leaf today, I smelled that same thing. It didn’t come through in the taste though. It was so sweet with such a true maple flavour. The pecan is a little more subtle, but still there. The flavour in the resteep was surprisingly almost as strong as the first steep! I enjoyed this so much that I will be ordering this again next time I make an order. Bumping up the rating (a lot)!

Bio
I didn’t drink a lot of tea growing up, just the red rose my nana would make me with about 3 teaspoons of sugar added to it. I started getting into loose leaf tea about a decade ago when I visited our local tea house and tried Rooibos for the first time, though I only drank it on occasion. I didn’t get serious about it until David’s tea came to town. I was on a diet and wanted something I could drink without sugar that had a lot of flavours to choose from.
I prefer black teas, but oolong and green come in a close second. White and guayusa are in the middle, while mate, rooibos and herbals are at the bottom of my list.
Likes: banana, jasmine, pumpkin, lychee, blueberry, chocolate
Dislikes: orange, ginger, rose, hibiscus, butterscotch, honeybush
My non-tea related interests are music, camping, poker, softball, snowboarding, biology and animals. I have 2 dogs and they are my whole life.
