688 Tasting Notes

It smells nice dry. The flavour isn’t much of anything. Doesn’t really taste like gingerbread. Or ginger really.

Ginger works better as red bush tea.

This tea smells so good. Like chocolate covered strawberries. The flavoured is more berry ice cream with chocolate syrup.

I’m picky about both my strawberry and chocolate teas. This one is a win.

Mmm… juice. I mean tea. It smells like juice dry, as well as brewed. The flavoured is citrus and tangy. I wasn’t sure about the green/ black tea blend, but it works. The most prominent flavour is the tangerine.

Doctor Who sipdown. The aroma is kinda chocolatey. It tastes like peanut butter pie. I don’t get much cheesecake flavour, but still good.

I was looking for something like an almond joy. This is pretty close. The aroma is chocolatey almond with hints of coconut. The flavour is a little more like chocolate covered almonds. Good dessert tea.

This was my bonus sample.

It smells so good! Like spicy Autumn chocolate. The flavour is a delicious blend of pumpkin pie and chocolate. Well… mostly pumpkin pie with chocolate shavings. Which makes me want pie.

This tea smells kinda cakey. I like honeybush, but the chocolate flavour of this one doesn’t really work for me.

This smells nicely like dark chocolate. I hadn’t had much luck with chocolate teas, but I like the flavour of this one a lot. And I liked the hints of citrus. (Though I did have it with oranges… which only made it better).

I agree about chocolate ‘flavored’ tea. Finally I bought some cocoa hulls and just add them myself.

This tea smells so good. I like the minty chocolate. The flavour is really good, creamy chocolate mint.

I’ve had other chocolate mint teas, but the vanilla is a great addition.

Am I supposed to have this while camping? This tea smells a bit like hazelnut chai, and marshmallows. The flavour is pretty sweet, and I need to try this with one of my chocolate teas.

It’s good with the Red Velvet Cake.
