First I need to say I’ve always been suspicious with the idea of chocolate flavor for teas.
Each time I was seeing such a flavor on a package, I didn’t purchase it.
I like to drink hot chocolate with milk and tea + chocolate was little weird to me.
But I am curious and however now we can see more and more chocolaty teas (chocolateas ?)
I decided to taste this one because of the ratings here and because I never had a Dammann Frères I didn’t like.
I really appreciated it even if to me the only flavor I get is chocolate. I cannot pick out the almonds (I regret it because I love almonds so much)
The tea base is very sweet and smooth without any bitterness.
The tea is absolutely mellow and sweet.
Dedicated to the chocolatea lovers.
But between this tea and a cup of real hot chocolate, I would still take the real chocolate…too bad for calories !
PS : my daughter is in love with it (she’s 10 and like to taste my cups of teas)

Hooray! I am glad you liked it! That is about the temperature I used for it, too. And I was like you….at first when I started drinking good teas I thought chocolate and tea did not belong together. Once I got brave enough to try them, I liked them.
I’m going to try several others :)
This sounds brilliant… Chocolate teas are a little hit and miss, I’m glad there’s one out there that tastes this good!
Not surprised Dammann makes such a blend, they seem to be all about nostalgia teas with all the flavours of childhood :)
