Stacy from Butiki Thank You for this one as well as the other teas you sent us at Sororitea Sisters!
I didn’t see this one on the website (YET) but if aroma counts I share hope you add it!
It smells hearty like a meal, slightly bready, and malty.
WOWZA! This is a STRONG TEA! I’m glad I actually followed the instructions of ONLY 1 teaspoon – I usually use more because I LOVE strong black teas! BUT this is CRAZY bold, intensely strong, malty, peppery, and an interesting level of crustiness to it!
It should be called Grandpa’s Anytime (You Need A Kick In The Pants) Tea!
I love it!
It does smooth out more as it cools naturally at room temp but it’s still hearty and full of flavor!
A little bit goes a long way with this one and I think it’s DANDY!

oh god.. more new tea from stacy. crap on a cracker!
LMAO @ Sil!!!
teehee
Yeah…I’m super excited about these – then again – I always am!
oh i have money to burn with stacy…she’s the only expception to my "must drink my stash down to 150 teas before ordering more* rule that i’m TRYING to stick to… but not only are we working on the strawberry rhubarb tea from the contest but there are at least 2 straight teas of hers i’d like to try, then there’s the plum tea, the three friends, eggnog, potato applesauce uh…and i think another that i’m forgetting.
Not to mention that I still have an abundance of her teas i’m working through.
Sil – Stay Tuned…I will be tasting most of those SOON :)
this is where i say… i don’t really need you to taste them to tell me i know i’m going to want them hahahaha pretty much almost a guarantee that i’ll pick up at least a half ounce (or an ounce) of almost any of stacy’s flavoured teas that sound like i’d like them….because i always do.
At least I can TEASE you LOL :)
curse you woman! :)
haha
TeaEqualsBliss-This one should be up on our website in about a week. The Potato Pancake, Kamba Berry, and Highland Green will be up either tonight or tomorrow. I’m really hoping to make this one into a special chai.
mmmmm more tea… yay!
Sil- :)
i swear you just make me wait to torment me stacy… just watch there will be “technical difficulties” that prevents the tea from posting lol (i kid i kid!)
I agree with Sil quite tempting us! (see no tea, taste no tea, buy no tea)
Sil & Helena-Hahaha. :) I will say the last technical difficulties were so not fun. My hosting company was hacked when I was trying to upload the new pages. Whoever hacked it also put up service tech numbers that were to a porn number and without knowing that I called the number. So, every 10 minutes or so I was getting a text from a that number. Still to this day like once a week I get a text from that phone number.
lmao ok stacy that just made me laugh…a lot. Not that i’m laughing at your pain but oh man… just teh mental image of you calling a porn number unknowingly… “yes i’d like to report a technical issue with my website” "oh yes baby…i can help you with you “website” yeah anyHOOOOO…. la la la
Oh no, that’s terrible Stacy!! I hope they get sued or spammed themselves somehow. Not cool.
Sil-Hahahaha. I kept getting messages asking if I would like to party with underage girls. Um, no thanks. Hahaha.
Indigobloom-It was amusing at first but very quickly became annoying. Ah well, at least its only once a week now.
This one sounds like a must buy.
I’ll bet.
Just saw the note about Kamba berry?! eeeep, I’m excited!
Indigobloom-The Kamba Berry is a blend done by Royal Tea of Kenya. Its a special blend that is dedicated to the Kamba tribe in Kenya and is their take on a berry blend using the purple tea with a specific focus on using ingredients with a high amount of antioxidants.
I wanted to mention that though Grandpa’s Anytime tea is a CTC tea, it has a ton of flavor and some very nice chocolate notes. I tend to water this one down a bit but I find it very delicious. I never thought we would carry a CTC other than for a chai blend but this is very tasty. I’ve been reading a lot lately about the quality of many CTCs being very high and I feel like this is one of them. This tea will also be used in a special chai blend that we are working on.
Great additional info! Thanks Stacy!
So tempting… so very tempting!!
