Chocolate Pecan Rooibos from Ovation Teas

Mercuryhime drank Chocolate Pecan Rooibos by Ovation Teas

I got a huge amount of this tea from SimplyJenW. Thanks so much! I love having caffeine free options for night time since I find tea drinking so relaxing before bed. THis particular tea does sound luscious. I think nuts and chocolate are a match made in heaven. And pecans are definitely overlooked as delicious nuts. I make an awesome pecan pie. :)

I find that this tea tastes mostly like rooibos with a subtle flavor of chocolate and a hint of pecan. The flavor of this tea comes out most strongly once my cup has been emptied. WHen I sniff my empty cup, I even get a caramelly note. yum. I ‘d enjoy this more if the flavor was stronger in the drink, but overall, this is pretty good. I’m happy to have this large pouch of tea to drink through. :)

Bio

I came from a tea drinking family, but I never appreciated the different qualities and varieties of tea until older. All that time wasted! But I guess I needed to be mature enough to appreciate the tea experience. :)

My favorite teas are green oolongs and white tea. I also love greens, especially gyokuro. I have a huge appreciation for rooibos and honeybush as they are often that only thing I can drink in the evening. I am a relatively new convert to black teas. This is unfortunate for my wallet but extremely wonderful for my palate. :)

In any case, I have a love for both flavored and unflavored teas. They are different experiences for sure, but both enjoyable. I find that it often depends on my mood.

I am on a quest to find a tea that will win my husband over. I think I’m making some headway…
