A strong, thick brew with a wonderful blood orange scent. The chocolate flavor is somewhat lost under the blandly creamy rooibos, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing as it leaves a lot of room for the fresh, juicy blood orange to shine. The liquor is the embodiment of “red tea,” looking exactly the way its name should.

Far more satisfying than the other blood orange rooibos I’ve been able to try (from Spice & Tea Exchange.) I expect this to be fantastic over ice, and hope a little sweetener may bring out the chocolate notes.

This is the joint account of Cash and Chris, two American University seniors and roommates with a love of tea and a shared collection that makes two separate accounts pretty pointless. Each tasting note is signed by which one of us wrote it.

In our photo, Chris is on the left in the plaid and Cash on the right in the poncho.

Cash is studying psychology and works at the Apple Store. He enjoys drumming, overanalyzing, and hoarding.

Chris is studying criminal justice and works for the EPA. He enjoys being terrible.

Send us a message if you’d like to do a tea trade, we’re always down to try new varieties!

Cash: I am on an epic quest to acquire some of 52teas’ Marshmallow Treat Genmaicha. It sounds like literally the perfect tea to me, and I will trade ANYTHING in my cupboard for it. Seriously. Send me a message if you’ve got some to spare.
