I’ve had this a number of times and I keep going back and forth about it.
On the one hand, it smells fantastic and deliciously chocolatey and is pretty good at waking me up. Fellow college-students-with-2-exams-this-week would know this is a super important factor sometimes when picking out teas…
On the other hand.. the flavor just doesn’t wow me. It’s good, just not amazing and not nearly as good as it smells. I drink most of my teas plain, although I’ve tried agave nectar in this blend and it did virtually nothing to change the taste. And from what I’ve read about mate teas.. I feel a little tepid towards drinking it.
I’m not a huge fan of chocolate teas though, so that could be it. In any case, I have about half a 50g bag left if anyone would be interested in a trade. I’m also new to steepster so I’d love to trade teas in general too :)
This is You :-D
Profile
Bio
I am currently in my last year as an undergrad at the University of Texas at Dallas. I’m studying Speech Pathology & Audiology and Child Development, so tea is my go-to when it comes to a study buddy!
My favorite types are herbals, greens, and black teas. Mate and rooibos aren’t all that impressive to me, but occasionally there are exceptions.
My palate in general craves fresh, light and flavorful teas and I find citrus or floral notes to be nice touches for the most part.
I’m brand new to Steepster and I’m looking for anyone looking to do tea trades (although I’m not entirely sure how this process works).
Keep calm and brew on!
