drank Chocolate Malt Dream by 52teas
1442 tasting notes

Another tea that I decided to open this month after existing in the timeless vaccuum that is my tea cupboard.

Both aroma and mouthful are incredibly nostalgic for me – a mix of those chocolate scented toys, a children’s chocolate birthday cake, a brownie with caramel drizzle, and most of all, malt balls (100% malt balls). It’s veering on chalky but that’s somewhat true to form and doesn’t detract from how cozy, simple, and pleasing this blend is.

Flavors: Caramel, Chocolate, Cocoa, Creamy, Malt, Malty, Smooth, Sweet, Vanilla

Malted ChocoMate was one of my favorites from the Frank 52teas days … this sounds like a really nice companion.

That’s one of my favourites as well! I’d drink it as a consolation prize after a sleepless night :P

Bio

I started my Steepster loose leaf adventure back in 2012. I can’t say I’m completely new anymore, but I still view oolong as a magical, extraterrestrial creature that unfurls in water.

My favourites are teas like Milk Oolong, Silver Needle,and Japanese Sencha/Gyokuro, or fruity and floral flavoured ones. However, I generally enjoy ALL the teas, including a good old cup of Earl Grey or Breakfast blend.

Subjective Rating System:
I don’t give a lot of low ratings out, since a) I tend to grab tea I know will appeal to me, and b) I don’t have a lot of strong dislikes.

90-100: Favourites. The Desert Island Teas.
80-89: Loved teas. Possibly staple-worthy.
70-79: Good teas, but I’m less likely to repurchase. Minor quibbles.
60-69: Ok teas. Likely a few preference and/or quality issues.
50-59: Cup of meh. Will do in a pinch.
11-49: Varying levels of undrinkable tea.
1-10: Nightmare tea from the chaos realms. This tea is the embodiment of the primordial swamp, an unholy abomination. It’s very gross and I’m almost positive it doesn’t exist.
