Years ago, this was actually the first loose leaf tea I ever bought. I frequently tried samples at Teavana, but this is the first one I ever had to have. I ended up with a few bags of this after Teavana closed, and it makes such a tasty, nostalgic treat. I’ve tried other chocolate mint teas since and have never been much of a fan. It might be because the white chocolate goes so much better with mint than other chocolates. So anyway, the tea tastes mostly like a mint candy with some desserty depth underneath. And it leaves a bit of a tingle on your tongue. This is one that definitely gets stale with age, so I guess I’d better hurry up and finish what I have.
Candy Cane Crush from David’s Tea would likely make a good substitute when you need a refill. :)
Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that one! I got a tin of that in a holiday sampler last year, and it was really good! I’ll be on the lookout during their after-Christmas sale (:
