Another sample from Sil. She spoiled me!
On first opening the little bag of this, I was a bit worried becuase I could smell an earthy aroma, which I associate with a pu-erh. I then looked up the description of this tea, and was greatly confused. Black tea scented with orange? That can’t be what I have here.
While brewing I could still smell the earthy aroma, I got from the dry tea. But after brewing and once it started to cool, there was that orange scent! It was a black base with a light orange scent. The taste is absolutely awesome. Very refreshing. I almost want to try putting orange slices into my black tea to see if I get the same taste.
Thanks Sil for this tea. I quite enjoyed it.
Preparation
mmmmm delicious! Thank you again ysaurella for the lovely teas you sent me. I really have enjoyed nearly all of them so far! This one is no exception :) Peach and vanilla and delicious! I’m glad i have at least one more cup of this to enjoy before it disappears and i need to try and decide which teas to beg my mother to pick up next month haha
Trying to drink some of my older teas. Going through weighing my cupboard today to see where i landed for the end of march and grabbed this one earlier today. Still enjoying it and glad the flavouring hasn’t lessened.
The more older teas that I drink, the more teas that are added….Heh. I’m sure you experience the same problem?
I started out great, then my wife gave me money for Christmas, with a note that read, “For Your Tea Only.” Then I allowed myself to havea small monthly spending spree…This whole “joining the tea community” is ruining me, but in a great way! :)
oh man…this one…ysaurella you are the best! She saved the last little bit of this one so that i could try it and i am loving it! I prefer it to florence from harney and sons, and i think i could even get my other half to drink this instead of hot chocolate. This is a great example of a chocolate tea that is really great!
this is a good chocolatea – and I’m not very chocolate tea but I won’t rebuy it Dammann increased the rate of 50% …14 €/100 g !!!
It was 8 €/100 g seven months ago…I like it but not enough to pay the double without explaination
Just noticed my other post didn’t save. I enjoy Florence, but it’s not to die for. However when I want that chocolatey, hazelnut goodness it’s a good one
this tea confuses me as well. it smells totally NOT how it’s described. Its actually stopped me from trying this so far hahahaha
It actually tastes quite good. Does NOT taste like it smells. You should try it.
haha yeah. there IS a reason i bought a whole tin of it – reviews had me thinking it was good but i just keep forgetting WHY i bought it when i smell it lol
