Comparison: Mon Petit Chocolat & Mon Petit Praliné (apologies as I’ll be posting the same note on both teas)!

MPC (notes: chocolate, cocoa, biscuit, almond): At first sniff, this one smells very chocolate-y. The taste comes through as chocolate, albeit quite thin (though I more or less expect this of DF). Then there is the ‘biscuit’ flavour – which is one of my favourite DF flavours. It adds a complexity that makes me think of having biscuits and tea. A says she gets all chocolate. We both prefer this one!

MPP (notes: chocolate, hazelnut, caramel, honey): At first sniff, this one smells nutty, but I can’t pinpoint anything more specific. I don’t get as much chocolate flavour here, if any. There is the scent that translates to the taste that’s also difficult to pinpoint. My guess is that it’s a raw hazelnut flavour. It’s not bad, but it would be nice to have more chocolate with it. A says she gets hazelnut followed by hints of caramel.

Bio

I love black tea and this is usually what’s in my mug. I’m also happy to enjoy a cup of green or red rooibos (green preferable to red), herbals, oolongs (unroasted/green and red preferable to roasted), whites, and subtly flavoured greens (mango or pineapple, yum!).

Likes:
Raspberry, strawberry, peach, rhubarb, passionfruit, blackcurrant, redcurrant, fig, and most fruits in general, maple, creaminess, hay, biscuit, lavender, and cacao/dark chocolate.

I enjoy bergamot when paired with flavours that mellow it (Camellia Sinensis Earl Grey Cream is one of my favourites).

Dislikes:
Any smokiness at all, stevia, too much blackberry leaf, rose, jasmine, ginger (except in chai), cinnamon-heavy teas, anything cloying or fake/candy-like.

I’m vegan with an allergy to potatoes, so I avoid any animal products in tea, along with sprinkles as these often have potato starch (I usually just pick them out of blends).
