Got my package from DavidsTea this morning!

It included a few new colored tea tins so I can get my tea shelf organized, 50g of Super Chocolate green tea, and yet another 100g of Forever Nuts (YUM!). For samples, I received Coconut Oolong, Pom Tango, and Honeydew Mate. Can’t wait to try ’em all out!

Whoa, what a day for tea! Since my last post, my order from Butiki came in, too.

This one was for Potato Pancakes & Applesauce, Pineapple Cilantro Cream, Almond Indulgence, Maple Pecan Oolong, & Pumpkin Creme Brulee. I also received samples of Raspberry Truffle (which I could smell as soo as I opened the box!) and Coconut Cream Pie.

This is my first order from Butiki, but after reading all the rave reviews on here, I’m dying to try everything. Especially the potato pancake & applesauce tea. It’s tea with chunks of potato; how could I NOT be dying to try it!

Great stuff. I wish your friend Wang Huimin would let some of that Anxi Fo Shou hang out with some jasmine flowers. That would be killer.

Mm, all delicious! I’d highly recommend mixing Blueberry Crumble and Pineapple Upside Down Cake together if you get the chance, they balance pretty perfectly.
