I’m not usually a chocolate flavored tea gal. I find most teas that have chocolate flavoring added to them end up tasting like watered down hot chocolate, so I wasn’t expecting much when I steeped this. In fact, I was tempted to set it aside for another day, but I’m glad I didn’t. This sample exceeded all of my chocolate tea expectations.
My thought after steeping this was that it smelled and like a mocha. There was a dark cocoa note and an edge to the tea that reminded me of coffee. I added cream and sugar, and… oh my. This turned into a creamy, rich, chocolaty treat with base notes of cocoa and malt. Delicious! I can honestly day I’ve never enjoyed a chocolate tea more.
Thank you, Naylynn for the sample!

Yep. I’m also not a fan of the strange artificial flavor that is present in a lot of chocolate teas. This one had none of that!
I’m picky about my chocolate teas, too. Most of them taste thin. :(

Scratch n’ sniff chocolate is what I call those teas. Blech.
Ha! That’s exactly what it is!
