QueenOfTarts drank Cantaloupe & Cream by Butiki Teas

I’ve had so much of this tea and haven’t written a tasting note yet! The scent is beautiful, buttery and sweet. Plus, melon teas have a special place in my heart.

Sipping, this is a very mellow blend. I was expecting something a bit stronger, but it’s still pleasant. The melon is subtle and is dominated by the rather buttery white tea. I like this tea base because it lends a bit of a bitter melon rind flavor to the end of the sip. It feels very full and thick as well. Very delicious!

I only wish that this tea could be with even MORE of that juicy melon flavor. Yes, it’s yummy, but I want more delicious melon!
