Thank you so much Nicole for sharing this one as a surprise blend with me.
It is a great great tea and you know I am not the biggest fan for straight teas.
I get mainly fruity notes to my opinion, I cannot say it’s raisin or another fruit but this is a joyful fruity tea !
I am very very happy because any time I tasted a straight tea from Butiki teas, I loved it and really loved it.
It means I can find straight teas I can appreciate without any reserve and appreciate the natural flavours.
So it really encourages me to continue exploring straight blends.
Some are so mysterious, other so dark, rocky or earthy, some so joyful…I really need to continue exploring :)

This one is awesome!
This is also how I felt! I can’t wait for it to come back.
The way everyone describes this, I feel like it’s a mystical unicorn in the distance that I can’t catch. lol!
that’s how golden fleece was when i first joine steepster…. now it’s this one.
When I first joined steepster (labor day weekend, was it really only 8 months ago?), Golden Fleece was as unattainable as it’s name implied. A few months in, David included a sample in one of my verdant orders. Then it became available (& yes, I’m still hoarding some). This Wild mountain black was similar. I was on an ordering haitus because I’d gone so crazy over the Holidays & to keep myself under control I didn’t even look at tea websites (that would be like an alcoholic going into a bar to order a glass of milk…). By the time I knew about this tea, & went to the Butiki site to order some, it was gone!! ;_;
Luckily, Sil, the wonderful awesome Sil, sent me a sample!
(((Gives Sil a big Hug))) Thanks!
Now I too can wait for it’s return!
what ? it isn’t available anymore ? nooooooooooooo Stacy !!! is there any chance to see it back ? it may depends on the season ?
Ysaurealla – she’s trying to get more in for July/August. So stay tuned :)
thanks Sil , I will sure ! :)
Ysaurella-Yep, Sil is right. I’m just waiting until the next harvest. July/August couldn’t be soon enough. I miss this tea.
I was hoping you’d like this one since you don’t find many unflavored blacks that you like. :)
and you were right having this intuition, Nicole – thanks again :)
