Thanks again for the sample(S), Sil!
I don’t actually care for the chocolate in this. Chocolate “flavour” or “essence” just tastes off to me, and this is no exception. The base is great, though. Maybe just the base without the chocolate stuff in it? Yeah, that could be good. Or mixed with Crio Bru? Hmm…
Anyways, it’s drinkable but I definitely wouldn’t seek it out.

this is a tea that you need to drink relatively soon after purchase. I found that the taste just loses something the longer it sits… also, i grew less and less enamoured of it
I have a lot of problems with chocolate flavours, so I’m not surprised it didn’t work for me this time. I mean, I loved H&S Florence but even that now is just ugh.
I still have some Florence, and I keep trying it. But the chocolate flavour just doesn’t do it for me. Give me nibs or shells and it’s fine – just the flavour that isn’t.
i haven’t tried florence in a loooong time so it might still do it for me… but this one for sure doesn’t
Where are you buying cacao from these days (I still haven’t been brave enough to try the last stuff I got – and I won’t order from them again so it’s really irrelevant…)
I have not tried Crio Bru – do you have a little you could toss my way? Any flavor is fine – just so that I can see what it’s like…
I can put some in to the box that i’m sending you dexter…i may have already done so…just not at home to check

YES! i feel you on that… florence was great…and then…it wasn’t
That’s sad :(( I still love Florance and Soho….

There’s Tisano, but I like Crio Bru way more than the shells. Have you tried Crio Bru yet?
Sil – I could toss a wee little taste of Florance into your box….
