This certainly smelled very chocolatey, I was nervous because there’s sweetener in the ingredients, and while I like my milk tea mildly sweet, I generally prefer my dessert teas to smell sweet but not actually taste sweet? The taste was not really anything groundbreaking, like a mild china black tea, the smell did not transfer at all. A little astringent, I think I steeped for around 3 mins, 195F, so if one were to go hotter or longer, it would be more astringent. As for as chocolate teas go, I’ve had better, I’ll drink this up, but also try to regift some.

Bio
I get easily excited and tend to get into the habit of collecting things I get really really excited about- books, fountain pens, fragrance, tea and any number of things. Mostly I’m just really excitable.
My favorites are oolongs! Also high for me are greens and ripe pu’erh. But I do like most teas and I’ll try most anything at least once. I just don’t like rooibos, smokey, or banana flavored things.
My name is Christina, but there’s also another Christina with a cat as a profile picture, so I go by Flyawaybirdie.
Feel free to drop me a message anytime. I love messages/letters/etc.
NOTE!: My cupboard is not up to date. Not even close. But it does have a bunch of teas I have pretty substantial quantities of, so I put them in there anyways because I’m unlikely to run out soon. Also, if I wrote a note on it and didn’t include a TTB name or a sipdown note, I’m likely to still have some even if it’s not in my cupboard, so feel free to ask if you want to swap!
Steepsterite since 2014. :D
