Chocolate Dream

The Quick Sip
Chocolate and tea? This combination may seem counter-intuitive, but remains a popular choice with chocolate loavers. The smooth chocolate flavour is emphasized nicely by cocoa bits. Perfectly balanced and sinful, but in a nice, delicious sort of way.

Tea Tales
Chocolate is made from the fermented, roasted, and ground beans taken from the pod of the tropical cacao tree. Cacao beans were often used as currency throughout pre-Columbian Mesoamerica, underscoring Chocolate as a luxury item. The earliest record of the use of the cacao bean is chocolate residue found in an ancient Maya pot, suggesting that Mayans were drinking it as a beverage 2,600 years ago. The Aztecs consumed chocolate as xocoatl, a bitter and spicy drink often seasoned with vanilla and chile pepper. Moctezuma served up the Spanish Conquistador Hernán Cortés to this favoured drink in a gold goblet. The rest, as they say, is history.

Customer Reviews
‘The aroma of this tea just puts me in a good mood. I am not a big fan of anything too sweet and I have to say this tea is well balanced. It’s chocolaty and you can taste the tea at the end. Just lovely'. Selina

‘I received this as a gift last week and shared it with some friends. Everyone loved it. I added a little peppermint tea to it this afternoon and liked it as well'. Patricia D
