It’s been forever since I’ve posted! Not good! Anyway, maybe my taste buds are off because of a cold, but I’m not really wowed by this one. It seems rather one-dimensional. I definitely don’t taste any chocolate as the description implies or even the caramel. It’s very thick- almost chewy, but that doesn’t equate with a varying flavor profile. I’ve thought about decreasing the time to three minutes, maybe pick up some more subtle nuances, but I really can’t be too bothered. This tea’s good for a sore throat and that general tea taste, but I won’t be sad to see this sample go.

Bio

I’m currently attending college. I’m just about done with my undergraduate study in art history. In my free time I love playing piano (Chopin!) and composing music. I also enjoy writing poetry. Really, I just love the Romantic period in art (with the exception of the visual arts- go figure) and continually draw my inspiration from that era.

I’m very interested in nutrition and using herbs to heal. Herbs also taste great, so that’s just another bonus! Before I got into tea, I got into herbs first. I think I’m pretty weird in this regard. I can’t imagine many people would find drinking a decoction made from tree bark to be very tasty… and yet I do. Purely for taste, I love peppermint and ginger more than any other herb. I could, and do, drink those almost daily. I also love rooibos and honeybush.

I have a penchant for Indian & Chinese black teas and Japanese greens, but I’ll try anything once. I’m trying to get into other types of tea as well. I prefer to drink my teas plain, but I’ll very seldom add honey to some herbs and specific kinds of other teas like assam.
