Read My Lips

This tea smells amazing and I really enjoyed the presentation of it. I did however find it tasted weak, even when David’s made it for me.

I had a Read My Lips Tea Latte at DAVIDsTEA today. It was delicious. The flavour was a bit weaker than I’d like, so I think I’d steep this longer when making it at home.

I first tried this tea when it was the ‘Tea of the day’ at the downtown location of David’s tea. I was actually in there to get a pack of cookie dough, and I tried Read my lips and let me tell you.. It was the best thing I’ve ever tried. I’ve always loved chocolatey minty things like the ice cream or the peppermint patties! This tea is the best blend of chocolate, mint, and goodness.

One of my favs for sure!

This is a pleasant tea but I was expecting a stronger taste. The smell was more delicious than the taste, but maybe I should have steeped it longer? Next time…

Better as a latte

To me, this is the PERFECT cup of black tea. It’s refreshing, it’s energizing, and it’s also got a dark sweetness to it that isn’t over the top!
I’m not usually a fan of dessert or chocolate teas at all, but this blend puts in the right amounts of everything to make it work. The mint and peppercorns also give it a nice kick to the mellow chocolate.
There aren’t very many flavors that can achieve what Read My Lips can, and I find myself craving it as I type..

Not as good as I had anticipated it to be.

Tasty. Not really chocolatey, but definitely minty. Added two teaspoons of tea, worried that the black would be strong, but it wasn’t. It was all mint. Think I might blend this with the stormy night blend.

I bought this on impulse as it was already packaged up and sitting by the register. It smells absolutely divine – very minty and chocolately. Other tea lovers were right, it smells like an After Eight! I love my mint teas to be really minty, so I’ll admit that I was a bit hesitant about the peppercorns. Well, upon drinking this tea, you definitely get the mint flavour, and a very subtle chocolate flavour. The peppercorns come in on the after taste. Very nice all around. An added bonus: you don’t need to add any sweetener!!

This one is definitely a tea that I plan to have in the cupboard at all times!

I got this tea because the girls at DavidsTea recommended it to me because I like chocolate teas. As promised, there is a strong taste of chocolate when you drink this tea. It’s very minty, it reminds me of a chocolate chip mint ice cream, but in tea form. The mint is very refereshing, and pairs well with the chocolate. I found this tea to be great hot or cold, but I like it best cold actually, especially as a dessert with a bit of sugar and cream. A must for any mint or chocolate fan!

Can you say wow? I don’t get wowed often but this tea does it for me every time. Iced or Hot. And great with milk. I can’t get tired of this one ever since David’s Tea opened. As you drink it, you can make out the chocolate more and more, but the minty-ness is always there. The black tea complements the whole very well. Buy some.

Tasty, cinnamon tea. Not my favourite, but very good.

This tea tastes more like mint than anything else. And I hate mint. I was hoping it would taste a little bit more chocolatey. It’s a disappointment.

This tea totally lives up to the hype. It is rich and delicious, and holds up to milk and sugar well. Even with quite a bit of sugar, it is less than 100 calories, with no fat, making it a much better option than a peppermint chocolate candy!

This is definitely a tea for the chocolate/mint lover. Not exactly what I was looking for given that peppermint is a tea I tend to avoid, but a fair tea nonetheless.

Despite a friend’s insistence that this tea is awesome, I’d been avoiding it, mostly because I don’t like chocolate-flavoured teas. This one is definitely tolerable, as the chocolate isn’t completely overpowering. The mint flavour hits me first. I had bought a little bag (20g) in a variety pack from David’s Tea, to give it a shot. I don’t think I’ll buy it again, but I’ll finish this bag.

I love love this tea < can’t get enough of it

This tea is my go-to pick-me-up morning tea…I practically swear by it! It’s gotten me through several early mornings when it’s beyond appropriate to be out and about going to work. The invigorating peppermint combined with the spiciness of the peppercorns, together with the sweetness of the chocolate and the candy lips are, at least to me, one of the best things to start the day with. Keeps me going for hours!

I read so many great things about this tea, so I had to try it for myself. I bought 50g of it at DavidsTea over the weekend and waited about 10 minutes so that two people before me could buy it as well. I’m not really a fan of mint chocolate, however this tea is delicious! I prefer my tea very strong so I let it steep for quite a while and I guess it helped capture all of the delicious flavours. This is the perfect dessert tea! I also think it would make a nice valentines day gift for an avid tea drinker, as there are tiny red lips mixed in with the blend, very cute!

Seriously, this is the best chocolate tea I’ve ever had. I don’t even like chocolate teas and I loved this one. I loved it so much that I made two pots within an hour and a colleague and I actually wanted to make a third. The pepper and mint bring out the taste of the chocolate. What I liked is that this tea really tasted like how it smelled. I’ve tried super chocolate, chocolate chilli chai and chocolate and those ones just didn’t live up to my expectations but Read my lips – oh so lovely.
