Received this one from Roswell Strange.

The dry mix looks very much like trail mix. Pieces of dried fruit, with surprising large pieces of chocolate, when compared to other chocolate teas. The chocolate chunks did not even fully melt with the first steep.

To me, this tea tastes like watered down hot chocolate, not so much like tea. I think it would taste less watered down if I had steeped longer. There is definitely a sweet banana but also a fruity taste to the tea. There is a slight creamy taste and feel to the liquor. Overall not too bad, but I wouldn’t really describe it as tea, its a good idea though :)

Bio

I am a lifetime tea lover.

I did foray into the world of coffee for a period of time, but I returned to my true love. I still, however, enjoy a good cup of java.

My all time favorite tea is Earl Grey, which I drink every morning, the stronger the bergamot the better. I definitely prefer natural oil of bergamot to artificial flavouring.

I mostly like black and dark oolong teas. My current favs are Fujian blacks, Keemun and Assams, and Wuyi oolongs. I gravitate towards anything with lychee in it. I also drink a lot of herbal blends but am wary of hibiscus. I do not favour mate, or pu’erh tea, although I have found a few blends that I like. (I so badly want to like straight pu’erh tea but it all tastes gross to me. I keep trying though). Rooibos, green and white teas fall somewhere in the middle. I find myself gravitating towards heavily roasted oolongs and teas from Paris/France based companies.

I love iced teas and cold brews.

My current tea goal is to make the perfect cup of chai from scratch – almost there…I think.

I am in love with the whole experience of tea.
