My friend bought me this as a birthday gift and it’s amazing! Everyone was saying that it had a chocolate taste, but I didn’t really find that to be the case. However, it is so good!! I love this tea. I’m not even sure how to describe this tea, other than good.

Upon another tasting, I think I finally figured out what it tastes like. It’s more of a caramel flavour that I’m tasting. It’s delicious! I usually add a splash of milk and sugar to it, being as it’s a black tea. This one will probably be a permanent one in my tea cupboard.

Update: I made myself a pot of this tea today. It is SO good! I know I already said that, but it is amazing. :)

Updated Sept. 2021
I’m a 30-something-year-old writer. I finished my first novel last year, which I’m editing this year amongst the world’s craziness and hoping to some day get it published. I’ve also written several short stories that I’m looking to get published someday

I work as a paginator (I do page layout for our local weekly newspaper) and absolutely love it! I’m also an amateur photographer.
I’m the proud mommy of two sweet little boys.
I’m married to an absolute amazing man who “puts up” with my tea obsession.

I became obsessed with tea a few years after high school.I started with Orange Pekoe double double (milk not cream), and peppermint. Since that time, I’ve really opened up to other kinds of tea and I’ve well… I’ve kind of just went nuts since then.

I’m a loose leaf fan, but if there are no other options, I will drink bagged.

I would have to say my favourite kinds of tea are (in no particular order): black, puerh cakes, herbal and matcha.

Green teas still aren’t a favourite for me, but I’m working on it.

I still can’t get myself to like mate teas, as much as I try, I just don’t like their flavour.

I drink tea every single day. I absolutely love it. I can’t image my life without it.

I don’t log every time I drink a tea as I don’t want to spam everyone with tons of duplicate loggings, but I will log when I have a new tea, which happens on a regular basis and when I do a SIPDOWN! :D
