Chocolate Chai Pu-Erh from Della Terra Teas

KittyLovesTea drank Chocolate Chai Pu-Erh by Della Terra Teas

I love chocolate, I love pu erh and I have to be in the right frame of mind for chai. Still 2 out of 3 is enough to peak my interest in this blend making it my next drink.

The tea whilst raw smells deliciously chocolatey with a touch of cinnamon and spice. I could note seeing chocolate drops and orange rind amongst the leaves.

Once brewed the tea increases it’s chocolate essence to an almost double chocolate level and the spices make it sweet yet spicy.

An interesting blend, the chocolate is quite dark but definitely chocolatey while the cinnamon gives it spice and cardamom a touch of citrus to lighten. I cannot taste that this is a pu erh blend but I think it goes very well with the flavours. It’s almost like one of those special chocolates you buy from expensive little shops as a treat.

I’m drinking this without any added sweetener or milk but I would imagine the chocolate could be enhanced by adding a little of both. I think it’s tasty just the way it is. A wonderful blend. :)

Bio

I am 25 years old from Leicester, England. I have been drinking tea for many years now and have been getting more and more appreciative about good tea’s. I like to try new and exciting tea’s and import regularly as a treat.

Tea wise my cravings change constantly from pu erh one month to jasmine green to the next and so on.

I adore cats and have four of my own called Honey, Cassie, Ebony and Ivory.

I also have three fish tanks which thankfully my cats have no interest in. They house an array of tropical fish.

I am a proud vegetarian and have been for the majority of my life. When I say vegetarian I mean just that as well, no fish or seafood, no chicken now and again, no animal products such as gelatine and cochineal.

I am always up for tea swaps so if you see anything in my virtual cupboard then please contact me.

I am also an avid reader and enjoy curling up with a book (mostly crime, horror, thriller, literature genres) in one hand and a cup of tea in the other.

I make gothic and alternative fashion jewellery and sell on eBay for a living. Jewellery making is an art that has been passed down from my mother. I have also just started to sell wire art and wire wrapped gemstone jewellery all handmade by yours truly.

I also work for a family based company that specialises in gemstone jewellery, essential oils, rare Andara pieces and lots more. http://angelleesadesigns.com/
