Sipdown! (30 | 30)
This has potential, but the base ruins it for me. It’s too metallic and tannic and works against the creamier banana and cocoa flavors. And if I steep it less, I don’t get as much of the chocolate notes. I didn’t see any chocolate pieces in my package? Not that I mind, chocolate tends to make tea oily and gross.
Anyway, the banana flavor is nice but that’s about it.

This wasn’t bad but I definitely wanted to like it more than I did. It did taste like chocolate and it did taste like banana but everything was so muted and also level in terms of flavour balance that it really created this very flat and unexciting profile despite the presence of multuple distinct flavour notes. The black tea itself was also really bakey. Not in the sense of, like, “baked goods” either but in the industry terms where it tasted over fired. The whole time I drank the tea I just had this sense that it was incomplete; I think it just needed more of like any one flavour direction to just create dimension: bitterness of the chocolate, sweetness of the banana…
Anything like that would have helped.
Well, this did taste kind of like banana muffins with dark chocolate – the banana flavour is definitely more muted and not runty at all, more like a baked banana. I don’t remember it clearly anymore, but I believe I felt fairly ambivalent about it, as there wasn’t enough depth from the base tea, just the flavourings.
