Ost drank Three Friends (Orange, Marshmallow, Chocolate) by Butiki Teas

736 tasting notes

Wasn’t sure if I’d like this tea because of the orange, but I decided to request it as a sample. It’s pretty good. The orange is definitely there, which is why I probably won’t buy any of this. But the flavors of marshmallow and dark chocolate put me on the fence about it. There’s so much marshmallow and dark chocolate tastes in this-it’s amazing! I love that part of it! Just the orange isn’t for me…so yeah, kinda on the fence. :S

Flavors: Dark Chocolate, Marshmallow, Orange

Oh this is one of my faves!!!! Do you not like orange in general, or just in teas? I wonder if Stacy makes something similar, but with just the chocolate/marshmallow and no orange….

I hate orange in general. xD And now I have to take something for my pain that’s orange flavored and it’s horrible tasting. xD So now I’m even more scarred with that flavor!

I’m not sure how you make it in the world, while hating orange. I feel for you, really. Seems to me like orange is in so many things that it would be hard to avoid!

Haha it’s actually easier than you might think! Like I can deal with orange if I have to. And I don’t mind when it’s in something but barely noticeable, but usually orange flavors are strong. xD

Well that’s good! I agree, orange is usually front and center. I like orange, so it’s not a problem for me. It’s mint that makes me cringe!!!

Really? Is it all mints? Or just certain kinds?

Most mints. I’m ok with spearmint if it’s very lightly flavored. I really detest strong mint flavors. Blargh!

Profile

Bio

I’m not too sharp with intros, but I figured it is about time to give it a go.
I started out drinking oolong and green tea that my dad brought home from his China business trips.
Then I discovered Teavana, and fell in love with some of their teas. Eventually I stumbled across Steepster, and a whole ‘nother world opened up.
Have discovered so many different kinds of teas, and have been loving this journey! The tea world is insanely big and amazing! And I’ve met some of the kindest people here who have broadened my horizons in more ways I could have imagined! Happy to be here, and to be drinking so many amazing teas! :D

My rating system:
1-59: Really really not a fan. An awful cup of tea for me…Totally undrinkable.

60-69: Not horrible, but not something I’d ever drink again willingly.

70-79: Pretty good. Wouldn’t mind drinking ever so often. But not a keeper.

80-100: FREAKIN’ AMAZING. Always keeping on stock in my home!!

I like pretty much any kind of tea except green tea. Unless it’s genmaicha or strongly flavored, I don’t like it usually.

My Tea Goals:
To find the Best Caramel Tea
To find the Best Vanilla Tea
To find the Best floral Oolong
To find the Best Malty Assam Tea
To find the Best Maple/Syrup Tea

Notes I like: Fruit(primarily peach, melon/honeydew, Banana, Kiwi, but I’m open to other kinds), Malt, Desserts (Toffee, Cake, Cookie,etc), Vanilla, Caramel, Floral, Sweet potato, Pastry/Bread,Jasmine, Honey, Cocoa, Chocolate, Maple, Nutty, Coconut, Almond.

Notes I’m Picky with: Lemon, Chai, Roasted, Blueberries, Hibiscus, Smoke, Earthiness, Puerhs, White Teas, and Cinnamon

Notes I hate: Citrus/Orange (Everything that I hate in this life that I have to take for my health is orange flavored, and it just makes me gag…so please…just no), Watermelon, Raspberry, Wood, Apple, Bacon, Lavender, Most mints, Pepper, Spicy, Tart/sour.

Yes, I am a picky tea drinker, but I’ll usually try any straight black or oolong tea that I receive. I like most oolongs, and I’m still discovering straight blacks. They always seem to surprise me no matter what!

And Swaps! I’m always down for swapping. Everything in my cupboard is swap-able. So just hit me up and send a message and we can totally do that!

On an unrelated to tea note, my other interests are limited due to health issues. But when I can, I enjoy reading and writing. Watching Netflix and YouTube have also been fantastic when I feel awful (which is most of the time).
I love Rifftrax, Rooster Teeth, Dexter, Hannibal, BBC’s Robin Hood, Sherlock, Doctor Who, Psych, and Parks and Rec.
Love watching all sorts of movies too, but that would be too much to list. :P
I’m definitely more of an internet person and love talking to people on every website I’m on. So if you ever wanna chat, shoot me a message! ^^
