drank Spicy Mint Oolong by Butiki Teas
1154 tasting notes

I keep putting off writing a tasting note for this one because I want to be thorough. Meanwhile, I’ve already drunk most of it. D’oh!

This is easily one of my favorite mint teas. I consistently get 4 solid steeps out of these leaves. The flavor is crisp and clean, but the oolong base gives it more depth than most mint teas. The tingly mintiness lingers long after the sip. Mmm.

Stacy, this is conspicuously absent from the site right now. Please tell me that this is either an oversight or you’ll be restocking soon!

This sounds interesting…

Butiki Teas

So sorry, we discontinued that one a while ago. It just didn’t have high enough sales for us to justify keeping.

Awww. Sad! Guess I’ll be hoarding the little bit I have left…

So Sorry. I really liked this one but I think our customers tend to go for the crazier flavors and sometimes the simple but good ones get lost.

The solution is clearly to stop blending crazy flavors that might distract from the solid basic ones.
