I absolutely love chocolate and orange together—my mother-in-law and I share a propensity to snarf boxfuls of those chocolate-orange jelly sticks without realizing how much we’ve just decimated.
However, the notion of chocolate and grapefruit never crossed my mind until we saw and sniffed this blend at the savoy shop. Straight off the steep, the grapefruit hits you first; however, after it cools, you realize there’s a really fine chocolate base underneath. The problem is leaving enough in the cup to allow some to cool. Good stuff.
oooh sounds intriguing. i too am a chocolate orange lover
I tossed in a few bulk cocoa nibs and second steep was perfectly acceptable as well.
ooo that is interesting blend!! Glad it sounds like it came out good!
