mmmmm sample from cookies so that i could try a few what-cha teas before i make a purchase. This one IS quite lovely as others have said. It’s malty and almost sweet but not quite. I didn’t get overly cocoa notes from this one, but there is a sense of that coming through in the background. Overall, i really nice cup of tea! thanks cookies!

Enjoying this tea now. I didn’t find this tea on the website so I suspect it’s sold out for this year. Hopefully they’ll get more of it with next year’s harvests.

Because this is FANTASTIC! I’ve had quite a few different Fujian black teas – I love them because of their chocolaty notes. This might just be the most chocolaty of all! I’ve had infusions of cacao shells and this tastes a lot like I infused cacao shells with the tea – I kid you not!

So, so, so good – I’ve had the opportunity to try quite a few different teas from What-Cha and this one might just be my favorite. This one is ahhh-mazing!

Glad you enjoyed it!

I just put it back on the website, had to remove it for a while as my previous website plan only allowed me to list 100 products.

I recently upgraded to plan which now allows me to list an unlimited amount of teas, must try to resist the temptation now of keep adding teas

Awesome! I will now do a full-length review of it for SororiTea Sisters. It will probably publish after the holidays though.

I love this tea. This is probably my current favorite black tea.

Wow, I’m equal parts proud to hear that you enjoyed it so much and embarrassed that I had removed it

Thank you for the sample cookies!! :)

This is sooooo delicious and malty! It’s got that smooth sweet potato Fujian thing going on. VERY nice black tea.

It is pairing very nicely with my apple butter, yogurt and pecan granola parfait for breakfast :)
