I love the name of this tea and wanted it to be great. The smell is of a creamy, rich chocolate. The taste, however, is significantly different. I can get hints of chocolate, but now as much as you would expect from the scent. Isn’t there a darn mate (or other tea, for that matter) with a rich, creamy chocolate taste? I might be asking too much.. trying to find a healthier, but equally satisfying replacement for hot chocolate. Anyway, this tea isn’t awful, just a bit disappointing.
This is You :-D

Have you tried 52teas’ Malted ChocoMate? It’s got a pretty strong chocolate flavor!
I agree Janefan!! I love their Malted ChocoMate…too bad I’m out.
Janefan and mrawlins2, I will definitely look into this kind! Thanks for your suggestion! :)
