Je t’aime Cocoa Amore! (I know I know I’m mixing my French and Italian)
The smell of juicy sweet plump cherries wafts up from this tea upon opening the bag followed by rich sweet chocolate.
I drank this after several steeps of GO and was nervous about expanding into the full world of Vanilla Dreams? What if I’d built it up in my mind? What if GO was a one off fluke and I just bought all this tea that wouldn’t live up to the promise Golden Orchid made me?
But my Amore, she did not disappoint. In fact… * gasp * I may indeed like her even better than GO. She is even more intense and passionate. Like a sexy flamenco dancer dressed in vibrant red.
I drank 4 infusions of CA and though it morphed and evolved it never got weak. Those luscious chocolate cherries. I had my last cup over 4 hours ago and it’s flavor is fresh in my mind. In all her desserty glory it never forgets that she is first and for most a tea. The chocolate and cherry rises organically from the tea, enhancing it not masking it.
I’m already in bed, ready to go to sleep but I want to go make another cup of this so badly. It’s going to take a lot of self restraint to stay in bed and not wander into the kitchen in the middle of the night.
Wow. Just wow.
Thank you steepster for introducing me to so many amazing teas.

Yay!!! Now you understand :-) and great review!!
Awesome review :-) It makes me want to try this even more!
Sounds dreamy
Yes Tea Fairy you have made me a true convert just through your reviews!
It truly is dreamy. I’m drinking another cup right now and it’s even better than I remembered it.
:D hehehe
Haha! Frolic, I love converting people to WP, it’s an easy thing to do :-) so happing you like it as much as I do…I even bought a poster of it, that how much I love it! Now you must try port, it’s back in stock in case you haven’t notice ;-)
I saw that but sadly I’m banned from buying any more tea for quite some time so no Port for me :(
I will enjoy the many nommy teas I already own though and there will be a time for Port.
Yes, very wise, keep it for a special time frolic, it is worth all your attention :-)
That’s what I’m learning with WP teas. They are to be sipped and savored.
When I read that it was best to let GO age a bit and notice how it’s flavor profile evolves the first thought in my head was “how will I ever be able to make this oz last more than a week!”
Now I know that these are amazingly satisfying teas. It may take some will power to not just gulp down the nommy richness, but it will be it’s own reward.
Can we get this tea in Canada?

Would you tell me how many cups of tea will I get from this Cocoa Amore please?

If you do the recommended 3 infusions, Cocoa Amore will give you at approximately 36 cups worth per ounce.
Thanks for the answer. Can we order this tea in smaller bags?
Unfortunately I can’t offer samples of Cocoa Amore, but I can give you a money-back guarantee that it’s delicious! :)
