I want this so badly to be good. How could you go wrong with cocoa, caramel and sea salt? That should be the best flavour combination ever! But this… is not very good.
The dry leaf smells great. Lots of rich chocolate and caramel.
Steeped, the chocolate is there, and a bit of caramel, but the whole thing just tastes watery, when it should be rich and thick. There’s also an unpleasant fruity artificial sweetener kind of flavour on the back of the tongue and throat, which is quite unpleasant and just doesn’t fit at all.
I had this with sugar and milk, which helped it out a little bit, but I still didn’t really enjoy my cup.

I got a cup of this to-go, once upon a time, and all I remembered was salty hot water with an admittedly great smell. :/
Looking at tasting notes, it seems like people either love or hate this.
Teavana stuff is so hit or miss for me, but when it’s good, it’s really good, so I keep trying them.
ewww that sounds like unpleasantness! What a shame because that combo does sound delish

I still haven’t tried this one, though I have it. You’re not making me particularly want to go dig it out, but it’s probably not getting better with age, either :p
