I’m a huge sucker for DT’s limited edition teas, it’s the whole ‘gotta try it in case it’s really good’ urge. This one is pretty decent compared to some of their other seasonal offerings that I’ve tried. Its dominant flavour is cacao with a sweet caramel-like undertone. But in this case it’s sort of a burnt caramel flavour – not badly burnt but enough that it probably wouldn’t pass muster in a high-end bakeshop. The sweetness become more apparent as the tea cools off and it takes on a bit of a strange aftertaste, so definitely not a tea to have iced. This blend isn’t half bad, but I don’t think I’ll purchase more than the 25g that I already have.
