Smells just like maple syrup when steeped. This is a good caffeine-free alternative when I’m craving a maple tea. But – based purely on maple taste alone – I prefer the Maple Pecan Oolong from Butiki, as I think the flavor is stronger there.
That said, this is still quite yummy. It tastes pretty much exactly as one would suspect: like a rooibus tea mixed with maple syrup.
A tea fanatic who works in the tech sector, I purchase most of my tea online. The numerical ratings are to help me remember which teas I should re-order. 85+ means it’s worth a re-purchase. (If I ever get through all of the new ones I want to try!)
It’s pretty obvious from my tealog, but I have special place in my heart for flavored blacks and good rooibos. I also love oolongs, but apparently have expensive taste in that area, so I don’t purchase them too often. Learning to appreciate green tea, but not a fan of overly vegetal ones. Whites make a great iced tea.
I love to try new teas and will sample most anything once. Although I’ll usually pass on Earl Grey or super floral blends.
I drink my tea with no additions, unless otherwise noted in the review.
