lolainred drank Rhubarb Vanilla Ale by Butiki Teas

127 tasting notes

This smelled so good while it was steeping, and I couldn’t wait to taste it. Defintiely wasn’t dissappointed. It has a very nice creamy smooth flavor and the fruitiness of the rhubarb is so nice. I don’t find it to be tart at all. I do find that all black teas with vanilla in them feel weird in my mouth. I know that sounds absurd, but that’s the only way I can explain it. But that strangeness aside, I really like this one and I absolutely think I might cold brew what I have left of it because from what I’ve read in other people’s tasting notes, that makes it even better!

Thanks again, MIssB, for sending this one my way!

The first time I tried loose leaf tea at home, I was hooked. I’ve been drinking tea for years now, though I still feel like such a newbie in the world of teas. There are so many things I’ve never tried from so many new to me companies!

I used to be very much a black tea drinker, but have started, in the last year, to realize that I prefer the lightness of greens and whites much more.

That said, I will basically try any tea once (probably twice, just in case)!

My review categories:
100-94: I never want to run out of these!
93-80: Restock please!
79-60: Definitely like, but not a must have
59-50: Not lovin’ it, but I’d drink it again
49 & below: nope, Nope, NOPE.
