This was in my big box from Nicole a while back – many thanks, Nicole!
My daughter brought me a Milka chocolate bar (Kuhflecken) tonight and I wanted something caffeine free to go with it. I have really enjoyed the cacao nibs in the Adagio blends I have tried recently so I thought I might enjoy the hazelnut and cinnamon here.
It is decent, but not something I will seek again and that is mostly because of my personal tastes. Hazelnut doesn’t always thrill me. There is some cinnamon in the aroma and honestly I am glad it isn’t a huge blast of cinnamon like in Harney’s Hot Cinnamon Spice, which is a bit much for me.
The hazelnut is the strongest flavor. I am not getting the orange or cocoa nibs listed on their packet, and that disappoints me because those are two of their flavorings I have enjoyed and have also enjoyed them together, for instance in Chorange. So hazelnut, hint of cinnamon, wisp of cream, and that is about it. Not terrible, but not one I would purchase. Glad to get to try it, though, and it went well enough with my chocolate bar.
