I was a bit apprehensive about this tea since chocolate teas are usually artificial tasting or taste like weird watery chocolate. This was a pleasant surprise. I don’t know if I would be able to pick out that it was a chocolate pu-erh from tasting it by itself, but I enjoyed it. It’s not too sweet so that it is reserved for a dessert tea (though I tend to drink my pu-erhs as a digestif) and it did not have any funky taste to it.
This is a great, grocery-store available introduction to pu-erhs for those that are a little intimidated.
Bonus: NUMI uses no pesticides in their tea or plastics in their tea bags.
