For some reason, I thought this was a green tea, so I brewed it up this afternoon. I didn’t realize it was a black tea until I had already put the tea in my steeper and boiled the water. But as the tea boiled and I poured it over my leaves, I thought wait a minute…..boiling water on green tea?? And then I looked at the description and saw black tea.

It is really late in the day for me to be having black tea, so I just took a couple of sips. The rest is going into the fridge to try cold.

Anyway, about the taste of the tea….this tea is delicious. Of course, I love chocolate! The orange is fresh and tasty. The marshmallow adds a pinch of sweetness. This is a decadent treat.

I really like this one, too. Have you tried that chocolate orange one from David’s Tea (I think) too?

Ya, I like the David’s tea chocolate orange as well. It is a pu’erh though so it’s a little different. I haven’t had it in a very long time. This one is definitely more natural tasting

I just have a hard time imagining a better chocolate orange than this one.

Anna, I looked at my note about chocolate orange and I had rated it really high. That was 2 years ago, and my tastes have changed toward more natural tasting and straight teas. This one would surely win in a comparison!

Yes, I think that’s a really good point, and spot on in terms of what sets apart DT and Butiki.

Bio

Hello,
I am a nurse. I have numerous hobbies: reading, crocheting, crafting, card making, scrapbooking, photography, shopping, and of course drinking TEA!

I started drinking loose leaf tea in Dec. 2010 when I went into a DavidsTea for the first time and have been hooked ever since! My favourite is probably white tea, but I also love black and oolong. I also like a nice relaxing rooibos or herbal in the evening. On Sundays, I like to treat myself and make a tea latte.

My favourite flavours are nutty, vanilla, chocolate, jasmine, tropical, fruity, earl grey.
My dislikes are lavender, rose, hibiscus, banana, and straight green or overly vegetal teas.

I am admittedly fairly generous in my rating scale. Most of my teas I rate at 90 and above, and would re-stock these teas.
Anything under 90 I probably wouldn’t re-stock unless I found a great price.
