Optimistically, I was hoping this would be like one of Terry’s Chocolate Oranges but should have known I was setting myself up for a downfall.
I decided to steep this for 10 minutes because I find it really helps with rooibos blends. The flavor here is VERY strongly orange, especially since there are chopped up dried orange peels in the bag. I would say the chocolate is much more of a secondary note, it is present in the background after you get hit in the face by the orange…. :))
It is slightly sweet and better with a bit of soymilk. I didn’t like it as much as I was hoping I would but will probably finish off the bag I got. The good news for rooibos haters is there isn’t an overwhelming rooibos flavor here because the orange obliterates it…

I swear that Terry’s had a dark chocolare raspberry at one point.
I’ve seen a couple reviews today about orange not working with rooibos-it never has for me unless the peels are part of a masala chai.
Have you tried Davidsteas Chocolate Orange tea? It’s the closest I’ve found to tasting like a real Chocolate Orange
no, I have not!
I would send you some if I had anymore left! :( You should definitely give it a try
