Rose Violet Calendula Oolong from Butiki Teas

Ysaurella drank Rose Violet Calendula Oolong by Butiki Teas

This is one of the samples I had with my Butiki Order.

I have no words to say how fantastic this tea is…It’s a kind of perfection, a violet and rose perfection.
Of course these two flavours are among my favorites but the way this tea is blended and flavoured is just wonderful.

It’s just so delicate,the kind of tea you are happy to have in the finest china bone tea cup.

I regret now not having ordered 4 oz of it.
I more than highly recommend Rose Violet Calendula Oolong.

Thanks so much Stacy :)

Oh, my! this tea is such a delight. I think the only I can describe it is magical!

Magical is the right word :)

I had never had violet in a tea before I tried this one. I like it1

I’ve never had violet in a tea, but I add the flowers to salads, & have made frittatas with the tender greens & flowers (although they are not nearly as delicious as dandelions).

This BT seems to have a lot of lovers, I understand why :)

Profile

Bio

First, please forgive me for my English and all the grammatical mistakes you’ll find in my posts.
As English isn’t my mother tongue it sometimes makes things more difficult to express cleverly and accurately what I feel.

I am mainly in black flavoured teas, green as well if not bitter.
I’m not drinking many straight teas because my palate isn’t developed enough to appreciate yet.

My favourite brands are : Mariage Frères, Dammann Frères,Theodor,Butiki Teas,Betjeman & Barton.
My ratings are as follow :

100 to 95 : my darlings; always in my cupboard

94 to 90 : Excellent tea, often in my cupboard

89 to 80 : very good tea, a pleasure to drink it

79 to 70: not bad even nice, why not having it sometimes, but well, not so urgent !

69 to 50 : Meh, deceptive or just not for me – but has some qualities

49 to 30 : I just don’t appreciate it

Under 30 : is this tea ?!?!?
