We think chocolate and tea were meant to be together! Treat yourself or someone special to a collection of teas that pair perfectly with chocolate. Packed in a natural bamboo box, our Chocolate Lover's Tea Collection includes a handmade bamboo scoop** and a half-ounce sample of each of the following teas:
Fukamushi Sencha - Known as "deep-steamed" tea, this second flush sencha brews a deep lime-green cup with a bold, rich flavor. The leaves are steamed longer than standard sencha, resulting in a more intense flavor and less bitterness.
Organic Wuyi Shui Xian - Shui Xian (Water Sprite) is one of the famous Rock Teas of Fujian, China. Grown among the mineral-rich cliffs of the Wuyi Mountain wilderness area, Shui Xian is a heavily roasted, dark-style oolong. With a smoky aroma, the tea offers distinct caramel and mineral undertones that mellow into lightly sweet and floral notes.
Assam Golden Tips - This is a top-grade Assam black tea that contains many golden tips. It has the perfect balance of body and complexity. Containing only the most aromatic young leaves, this elegant malty cup has a wonderful red wine-like aroma and leaves a desirable, lingering aftertaste.
Each sample packet brews about 5 - 7 cups of tea.
** Our bamboo scoop is unavailable. A handmade cherrybark wood scoop will be substituted.
