For me, the first thing was the smell.. it smells strong, in a good way. The creamy chocolate aroma coming out of the tea pot was already delicious.. I couldn’t detect any hazelnut in the aroma but nevertheless it was a mouth watering aroma.

The colour of the tea is a dark brown red and having the first taste.. the whole taste was wondeful. I could taste the chocolate, the cream, the hazelnut..

The only thing that I could say about this tea is that I was hoping for a thicker smoother tea, it was quite a light tea.. I might add some almond milk next time but on it’s own the texture was far too fresh.. I hoped for a creamy tea with hazelnuts and chocolate.. I could taste alot of the rooibos aswell. I hope that I find a tea just like this as a black tea, which could really help on the texture of this.

I was craving something sweet so I dipped into my reserve and made some with lots of honey and milk. It hit the spot.

Terrible tea! I bought it just to try it (2 oz) because it was on sale at Teavana, and now I can see why! I’m not usually one to give such negative reviews, but this one deserves it. It is overly sickening in both taste and smell, and almost makes me want to vomit simply by smelling it. It is Teavana’s one tea that I didn’t like ever, even after experimenting with it.

Bland by itself. I always add rooibos chai and milk.
