From DAVIDsTEA

How sweet it is

Need a toffee break? This rich and decadent, all-natural blend of pu’erh, cocoa beans and caramel is the perfect sweet treat. With its mouth-watering aromas of caramel and browned butter, even steeping it feels like a luxury. But with all the benefits of pu’erh – and next to no calories – this is one little indulgence you can feel great about drinking. Try it with hot frothed milk and a shot of coffee liqueur. It just doesn’t get sweeter than that.

Ingredients: Pu’erh tea, cocoa beans, cocoa husk, caramel (condensed milk, sugar, glucose syrup, butterfat, sorbitol, mono and diglycerides), natural flavouring.

Contains milk.

i don’t love davids tea…but i’m always willing to try new things. verdict is, that i prefer other puerhs. This one is sweet…not super sweet but enough that the puerh takes a back seat to everything. I prefer it when the puerh is more to the forefront, with the flavour accompanying the tea instead of supplanting it. over all, not a terrible tea but i’d pick up other versions of this tea first.

Interestingly, I have a sticky toffee tea from Whittard that I like blending with plain puerh. That way, I can kind of control the level of flavoured stuff versus earthhy, farmy puerh goodness.

Just ok. The toffee is fairly good but the chocolate is…not in this cup. I might have overstepped at 5 minutes. Next time I will try 4.

I had this as a latte in store the other day and it was fab. Bought a wee bit to take home. I’ll let you know how that goes.

I’ve had some version of this tea type so many times. They all started to taste more or less the same to me.

(David’s had a few that were similar, but I can’t recall where else I’ve had toffee/puer combo)

A pretty common combination I guess

My friend picked me up a sample of this tea the other day and when I smelled it, it was just horrible. I think the smell was disgusting. I hate toffee and caramel to begin with, but I wanted to try this to see why everyone thought it was so good. I tried it as a tea latte and it was drinkable. I wouldn’t get it or drink it again though. Yuck.

Flavors: Caramel, Toffee

This tea smelled really nice in the tin, Just like english toffee with chocolate. I steeped for 7 minutes, as i like my tea on the stronger side and added a splash of milk. The end result tasted like Davids tea Chocolate macaroon, which is not my favourite. It tasted slightly better to me as it cooled off. I Would not purchase again tho.
UPDATE: just tried this in a tea latte, and the toffee flavour is way more pronounced than in a regular tea. Very enjoyable!!

Flavors: Caramel, Cocoa, Coconut, Toffee

I picked up the new tea that was released earlier in the day. I was really looking forward to trying this one and, let me just say, it did not disappoint! Yum yum!!! I prepared it as a hot latte and it was amazing. I actually got it ready right before dinner, but did not try it until after eating my food. Throughout my meal, the tea was giving off the most spectacular aroma. I couldn’t wait to try it! So good! I only picked up 50g to try it out, but I will definitely be picking up a lot more in the future. It’s an incredible dessert tea!
