The dry leaf of this blend is so pretty! Tightly curled, glossy black leaves contrast sharply against big flakes of milky white coconut and shiny nut-brown grains of toasted rice. The flavor is like a deeper, richer version of a Crunch candy bar…the creamy chocolate and crispy rice are both there, but there’s a toasty Unami note instead of sweetness. This is so unique and lovely! Definitely one I would consider ordering in the future.

Flavors: Milk Chocolate, Savory, Toasted Rice

Bio

“You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.” ~ C.S. Lewis

I was introduced to loose leaf tea by a roommate in 2012, but it wasn’t until I stumbled upon Steepster in 2014 that I discovered a world of tea that went beyond Teavana and the grocery store.

My tastes continue to evolve, but black tea is currently my favorite. I am especially drawn to strong, malty breakfast blends to wake me up in the morning and flavored dessert teas to sip throughout the day.

Just about everything in my cupboard is available to swap, so feel free to ask!
