drank Orange by Teeccino
1324 tasting notes

One of the last few tea bags from the sampler I got.
This one was disappointing because it sounded really good. I wanted more orange from it and more chocolate. The orange was the stronger of the two flavors but I was expecting this one to be strong like the Amaretto flavor was. This blend was a lot more subtle compared to that one and just didn’t deliver. The chocolate component was missing as well.

I gave my Almond Amaretto to my wee twin grandsons and my daughter-in-law yesterday, so I will have to re-order. I think Orange had the lowest favorable reviews on…Vitacost? Amazon? So I thought I would skip trying that one.

Sorry this one was disappointing.
Orange and black tea, or spices with those two, are common because they are so delicious. Years ago when I was only a teabag store gal, I kept finding delicious blends. When I first got into loose teas, definitely ordered the combo. Now though, it seems almost all new samples I try of this supposable simple and well liked combo aren’t as good as they should be. !?! Go figure!

@Ashmanra: That was nice of you! They sell a couple of blends in my local Fred Meyer. So I don’t always have to order online. They have a lot more fun blends on their website though and most of them have been pretty tasty.
@Lupiressmoon Chocolate orange teas are tricky for some reason. Gmathis sent me a sample of one of her favorites awhile back I believe it was from TeaMaze and it was a good one though. Since Teeccino is meant to be a coffee substitute that also probably made it trickier. I’ve never heard of a Chocolate Orange coffee blend.
