Description

While the greatest chocolates may come from Switzerland, the best chocolate tea undoubtedly comes from Adagio. And we guarantee that you won't choose to remain neutral. This decadent treat infuses the flavor of rich chocolate with the rich, full taste of Honeybush herbal tea. A rich sugar-free treat, delectable both hot and cold.

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. But 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.

"Having read that rooibos and honeybush can be quite similar, I'd say I agree with that assessment. Both taste rather like twigs/stems that they derive from. Might as well drink it plain because the 'flavorings' don't really pop unless you put sweetener in them and I'm trying to cut out that sort of thing. I'm guessing I should accept that tea wasn't meant to be sweet like other things. Still, not a bad tea."

"My husband really likes all of the honeybush flavors. This is one of his favorites, but he doesn't like it quite as much as the vanilla."

"This is a very very tasty tea. I use this one to introduce people to chocolate teas and to honeybush. It's great that's it is not caffeinated because I can drink it as a treat after dinner and not worry about it keeping me awake."

"Great tea, but it doesn't taste as much chocolate as "chocolate chip" flavored tea. But if you need a caffeine free chocolate tea, this is a great choice."

"Thiswas my first time trying honeybush tea. It does have an interesting taste. It had a hint of chocolate. It was good but not great."
