Chocolate Cream with Cocoa Pieces

About 3 teaspoons to a 2-cup teapot. It’s thick, as though there ought to be cocoa in it, and there’s a little sediment drifting to the bottom of the cup, as though there ought to be cocoa in it, and there’s maybe a hint of chocolate, as though there ought to be cocoa in it…but mostly I’m just getting the cream. May have to doctor it with milk to see if it coaxes the chocolate out of hiding.

Meh. This is just ok. Maybe I did not let it steep long enough but it just tasted watery and somewhat chocolate-y….

wow is this chocolaty! its a dark murky tea but the amount is chocolate pieces in the dry leaves is like looking into a bag of trail mix. the dry leaves smell like baking chocolate! the wet leaves dont really smell all that interesting. with this unsweetened it tastes like bittersweet drinking chocolate mixed with tea. i dont get a cream taste. i prefer milk chocolate so im not sipping this as fast as i thought i would. ill finish my sample but i dont hink i will be ordering more

I’m surprised by the bad reviews on this. I love chocolate, and I’ve always been intrigued by the idea of a chocolate tea. The only other one I’ve tried is Adagio’s Valentine’s, which is good, but has that nasty Ceylon base that Adagio uses. This is not bitter like that at all. It has a very rich, smooth, creamy chocolate taste, and is very authentically chocolate despite the lack of milk. The smell of the dry leaves is amazing! The chocolate taste does lean a bit darker than a milk chocolate, so maybe that’s part of the hate on this one. Hm.
