This tea confuses me. The name is “Chocolate Earl Grey” but the chocolate bit is more strong hints of chocolate or cocoa flavor (not an actual chocolate taste) and the Earl Grey bit is more of a hint of fresh citrus lightness (instead of noticeably bergamot).
I’ll admit, I was hoping for something a bit more like a chocolate orange. So the fact that this tea is mild tasting with notes of chocolate and bergamot instead of the actual taste of chocolate and bergamot left me feeling a bit confused. That being said, I managed to drink my cup pretty quickly – it was sweet, smooth and had a very nice flavor. Just totally not the flavor I was expecting. For that reason, I’m leaving this one unrated for now. I need to have a cup of it without blatantly incorrect expectations clouding my experience.

I LOVE this one, I need to get more soon.
I think I really am going to like it because I drank it fast – always a sign of a good tea. But it wasn’t what I was expecting/hoping for so that threw me. I’ll have to have it again soon KNOWING what it will taste like and then I’ll be able to figure how much I like it. If that makes sense.
Totally makes sense.
