Thank you to VariaTEA for graciously sending me her whole sample pack so that I could try it. The name brought out delirious visions of mousse cake for me, which is one of my favorite treats, and thus why I wanted to try it.
Dry, my son said it smelled “nice”. I left it to steep and then had to leave for a bit when I took out the tea bag, so I’m drinking this now slightly cooled but still warm.
If there’s mint in here, I’m completely missing it. Chocolate I get, sort of.. at least the richness of a milk chocolate, if not the flavor if that makes any sense. Zero cake. Lots of black base which is slightly bitter.
I had high hopes here, and while reality was about where it should have been, I’m really glad to have gotten the chance to try it. It would have bugged me until I could make an order! Thanks again VariaTEA.
I thought it did not live up to its name either. Luckily, I got two free samples of this one with all the teas I purchased so I wasn’t too upset when it turned out to be disappointing.
