At first taste, we thought it was dirty dishwater. It is a very dark color and does appear to have some chocolate in it, but the chocolate flavor is not very strong. The other tastes seem to overpower it.

Second taste of it (after a 24 hour break from this tea!) we made another pot. I tried sugar and some french vanilla creamer and it’s actually very good. Similiar to the idea of a chai latte. Just, not quite. I’m a little ambivalent, but no longer think it’s dirty dishwater!

A soothing tea right before bed time.

Chocolate and spicy but not toooo spicy – w/a tinge of sugar and little splash of milk , sort of like a dessert. But overall, this tea is more of a chai than a chocolate tea..

I ordered this tea online, and I have to say I was really nervous to try it, since the ginger overpowered the scent. However, when brewed, this is very delicious! I find it to have a nice balance of flavors, and I like the kick the ginger gives it.

Also tried brewing this with Black Dragon Phoenix Pearls, which really brought out the chocolate.

I was feeling something chocolatey so I pulled this one out. I feel like it gets better every time I drink it (yay!) but I only have enough for one more cup left. I definitely won’t be picking up any more of this if Teavana even still sells it because it took too long to even go through this sample (I think it’s been at least 2 years…)

Definitely tasting the chocolate notes today and though I decided against adding cream this time it does have a hot chocolate feel to it. The pepper and cardamom is still pretty overwhelming and I feel like it kind of ruins the tea a bit since the rooibos and chocolate are kind of buried underneath.

Too much ginger and pepper coming through for my tastes.

Ordered this for my wife – she enjoyed it, but it really wasn’t for me. Might have been good with a little cream, but by itself really wasn’t what I was looking for in a chocolate-flavored tea.

The spices and chocolate notes are great. I just can’t get past the rooibous taste.

A wonderfully rich, spicy chocolate rooibos. Divine with some sugar and a splash of cream; easily replaces the nighttime hot cocoa.

Tastes like chocolate without the chocolate. One of my favorites.
