Placing my first Butiki order, and I'd love some input on what to get!

31 Replies

I honestly love all of the teas I’ve tried from Butiki. But if I had to buy ONE plain black tea from black tea, it would definitely be the Golden Lion Assam. It is probably my favorite tea overall. I do not envy your decision, as I could stock up on all Butiki’s blends if I had the money. Well, that wasn’t much help for you, was it? Whoops!

The Pumpkin Milkshake and Cantaloupe & Cream are not to be missed. It isn’t on your list, but since you mentioned dessert teas, try the Pistachio Ice Cream. It’s spot on and resteeps nicely as a nut tea.

I’ve only had Raspberry Truffle from your list – but it is really good. Like others have said, you can’t really go wrong with Butiki.

Ok, here goes…I’ve had a number of Butiki Teas now (via sample and a co-op order with some friends), and I have my first solo order coming in soon! YAY!!

Blueberry Purple Tea-My first steep, meh, but my second was better. Can be missed for your first order. Maybe get this as a sample?

Caramel Vanilla Assam-A classic black tea, well rounded and smooth, like gold. Not to be missed!

Pumpkin Milkshake-in my future order, looked too good to pass up!

Maple Pecan Oolong-tastes just like pecan pie. If you like pecan pie, grab some.

Cantaloupe & Cream-also my first Butiki tea. I kept saying to my co-workers how much this smells and tastes like cantaloupe, and they said, you must really like that tea, cuz you’ve brought it up 4 times already. A definite fave…if you don’t like cantaloupe though, maybe it’s a miss, but if you do like cantaloupe…DO NOT MISS!

With Open Eyes-A surprising hit! I’d say it’s a keeper…I have more of this coming.

Three Friends…a lot like DAVIDs Chocoloate Orange, only without the pu erh base, and a bit smoother and lighter.

I also like Almond Indulgence and Ruby Pie a lot.

I just tried the Peppermint Patty tonight and was impressed how much it really tastes like the gooey filling of one (and like Junior Mints), not just mint tea with chocolate aroma like most of the other choco-mint teas I’ve tried. I’d definitely order it again, and if you like peppermint patties or junior mints I recommend it!
