Rockville Raspberry from Charleston Tea Plantation
92

Special thanks to Jaime for this one! OMG! Jaime spoiled me!!! Stay tuned for more reviews!

I can’t stop thinking about a Raspberry -Jelly Lined Chocolate Cake I had for my Dad’s Surprise Party this summer because that is what this tea smells like!!!! Raspberry and cake! YUM! There is a cake-bake-spongy-chocolate type aroma trying to eeeeek out from somewhere but this is a marvvvy aroma! And, yes! That’s MARVY with 3 V’s!!!

The taste is wonderful, too! It’s a true black tea but the raspberry is a creamier raspberry not a tart or bitter raspberry. And I like that very much! This is a nice treat!!!!

Looks like they are opening some in MA 2011! Maybe they will get down your way soon! LOL – I’ll have to get some of their tea in bulk and send you some at some point!

It’d be years before that’d happen! Like Mark Twain said, he wants to be in KY for the end times…since we’re 20 years behind the rest of the world! I’m thinking I’ll need to experiment with a jelly roll and see if I can come up with something like this…it sounds way too good!
