237 Tasting Notes
Oh my gawwwwd, sometimes this is just what I NEED! The aroma and intoxicating taste of coffee without the bitterness, jitters and dehydration that comes with it. The first steep is very earthy, with coffee bursting through and a hint of chocolate. The second steep is much milder, and the chocolate and caramel flavour really comes out. I mix this with Read My Lips sometimes and it tastes like a mint mocha!
Preparation
I was so excited to try this, and I really really really wanted to love it! Sadly, I find it very flat and boring. Not enough richness in the chocolate flavour, and the coconut is meh. I’ve made a cup on 3 seperate occasions, and every time, I’ve been a bit disappointed. The smell has nothing to do with the taste in my opinion. It’s ok. Just ok.
The first time I made this tea, I steeped it for too long and it was very bitter, so I tried it again, and made sure to do it properly and the verdict, after two extra tries is that this tea tastes like what grape scented playdough smells like. I was very disappointed.
