Like so many others I’ve reviewed thus far, this was one of the teas I’d received in the Sweet Indulgence pack from DAVIDs. This tea was one of the reasons I purchased this pack in the first place; chocolate and oranges were simply made to go together.
Once I steeped my first cup, I was a little thrown off by the smell. I actually can’t recall whether or not I could detect any signs of chocolate or orange, but I did notice a strange, unappealing smell that was really somewhat fishy. I didn’t know if this smell was something I could look past to give the tea a serious taste. Fortunately, my sense of taste overpowered my sense of smell and I was able to enjoy the chocolate and orange flavors. I found the orange flavor to linger after each sip, just as it seems to do when you eat orange flavored chocolates.
This tea made me want to seek out more teas with strong orange flavors. There will definitely be an orange tea or two in my next order.
