Courtney drank White Rhino by Butiki Teas

775 tasting notes

I’m spending my Friday evening studying calculus, rather than seeing Mission Impossible with my girl. Sigh.

I was really in the mood for a light tasting Lupicia green oolong, you know, for inspiration for calculus. Well, imagine my surprise in knowing they are nowhere to be found. I searched our entire flat. I was just rattled. So, right to the big guns it was.

White Rhino. Ahh, White Rhino. How I love thee. This tea has always been nothing short of phenomenal. The sweetness and hay combination just can’t be beat. I will be forever saddened once my stash is gone. I’ve been on the lookout for something similar I could order when the time comes, but suggestions are always more than welcome.

A few of my favourite things: animals, the ocean, science (I’m currently doing my MSc in biology), travel, all things summer, and of course – tea!

I love chatting biology, so feel free to ask me about what I study or follow my instagram @biologistcourtney!

I love black teas and this is what I’m usually drinking. I pretty well always drink my tea without anything added.

I’m also fond of herbals, oolongs, and subtly flavoured greens. Whites are also enjoyable, and I’m always looking for a replacement for my all-time favourite Butiki’s White Rhino.

Pu’erhs, rooibos (specifically red, I’m more open to green), honeybush, and matés are not my favourite. I tend to avoid them altogether unless others find them so amazing they shouldn’t be missed.

Likes:
Creaminess, toffee, cacao (true dark chocolate flavour), coconut (true coconut flavour), and rhubarb. I’m open to flavoured teas but they can’t be cloying or fake/candy like.

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, bergamot, flowers (rose and jasmine), hibiscus is hit and miss.
