Description

Premium black tea from Sri Lanka flavored with sinfully dark chocolate. A rich sugar-free treat, delectable both hot and cold. If you have yet to try gourmet chocolate tea, you'll be pleasantly surprised by its superior taste. Indulge your taste buds. Give our Chocolate Tea a try.

Story

The story of chocolate begins with Columbus' discovery of America. Cocoa beans were among the curiosities he brought back from his voyage. However, it wasn't until the conquest of Mexico that the Spaniards learned of 'chocolatl,' a drink made from cocoa beans that the Aztecs served Cortez and his troops. The Spaniards found the drink bitter. Luckily, the New World was also a source of cane sugar. Combining the two, and bringing the recipe to Spain, proved a booming business. The Spanish managed to keep it a secret for nearly a hundred years.

"Great tea by itself. But I like to mix equally with caramel and hazelnut. My favorite tea on a cold morning!"

"This tea smells very similar to a cup of hot cocoa. The tea (itself) is hard to distinguish from the general aftertaste of coffee. I found it much more pleasant with a drop of honey. "

"Excellent mix with just enough chocolate flavor to tease but not to oversaturate the senses"

"It smells really amazing until it's brewed. Right out of the bag, it smells identical to chocolate. After brewing, it doesn't smell as much. I can taste the chocolate, but it's not sweet chocolate, like expected. Adding agave nectar makes it a little better, but not by much."
