Oh. My. Goodness. This tea is the best morning tea I have had… it’s perfect. Just enough of a kick to warrant a touch of cream, making this one killer cup of tea.
I’ve steeped this 3 times already, and I completely plan on going in for a 4th. It’s fantastic!!
It’s malty and complex, so different from what I expect to taste in a ctc.
I never got to try the Crimson Horizon on its own, but that’s ok…because this is utterly fabulous.
My Butiki box arrived today with my final teas….and it’s this combination of exultant joy (Stacy is the BEST! my box is amazing….), and a tinge of sadness…. But I’m not going to harp on that sadness, because this box of tea has made my snowed-in self sooooooo very happy. :)))
Yes. I recommend this tea. It’s glorious! :D
Flavors: Caramel, Malt, Nutty

Gah, now I really do wish I had gotten this one too.
i love this one too and am bummed there’s no way to restock. when i got it, it pretty much became my first-thing-out-of-bed tea until i used up the entire bag, because you’re so right, it’s perfect for that. and yeah, i love that it resteeps so well (which is kind of surprising given it’s CTC). it also amuses me how it reminds me of grape nuts. (:
HAHAHA!!! I totally thought ‘grape nuts’, too!!
Yeah, the resteeping value of this is wonderful (I did the same with the grapefruit creme brulee… the base just gives and gives.. i love it). It’s gonna be a sad day when this one’s gone.
