Purple tea? Is comes in purple?
I had to add this to my shopping list…blueberry, Butiki, and I’ve never had purple tea…
Yeah, its some kind of new-ish hybrid tea from Kenya (I think). The Butiki website has more info (and unflavored purple too, but this blueberry one is just divine). And it really brews all purple in the cup. I don’t know how much of that is the blueberry or the supposed purple of the tea, but I just love it. My favorite color <3

My Rating System
100 My happiness absolutely depends on it
95 Will definitely repurchase
85: Might repurchase (teas that depend on my mood)
75 Won’t repurchase (but I would drink it again if offered).
65: meh
45: I reluctantly finished a cup.
15: Couldn’t finish a cup.
I simplified my ratings to single numbers rather than ranges because I can’t precisely compare so many teas with a system more detailed than this.
An unrated tea is most often one that I recognize as having significant notable quality, but that does not suit me personally. Sometimes, I leave teas unrated for other reasons, such as I am undecided or I brewed it wrong, etc.
Note: Boiling temp. barely reaches 200 where I am (and a few times it sticks at 195, I assume due to unexplainable shifts in altitude or the position of the moon. . .aliens?. . .).
