Numi Organic Chocolate Pu-erh Tea, 16 Dark Tea Bags, High Caffeine

This isn't what I was expecting, but it is delicious. Definitely not chocolate tasting, but can't put my finger on a distinct flavor. I will definitely be getting again.

This is the first pu-erh tea I have ever tried, so I will do my best to describe it. The smell is weird out of package, then you brew it and it is worse, an almost rotten scent but not putrid. The taste is a strange savory watery chocolatey black tea with spice notes, that the tea is a stronger tea flavor you can taste the extra fermentation...but it is a taste that halfway through your first cup you begin to love. I know this tea is a cut down version of a true pure pu-erh tea, since it is cut with many other flavors and the sweet nonbitter roobois tea, but this is as strong of a pu-erh tea as I think I could drink. If a full bodied pure pu-erh tea was more rotten smelling to the point it also tasted that way...then I just couldn't do it. This is a much better introduction or beginner level to that kind of tea, this one has a good taste. I tried this tea many ways before writing this review; I tried it 1 bag to 1 cup water nothing else added (it was good, by end I wanted more), 2 bags to 1 cup water tried it a bit (the smell and taste were double strong, taste ok but smell worse)...then added some sugar and tried it a bit more (even better with sugar, even the smell improves, seems more chocolatey with sugar...a white chocolate to light hot chocolate flavor...near bottom of mug is when you get deeper richer dark chocolate flavors)...then added some organic half n half till it looked color of he-man (now it smelled more like a chai tea, seemed more chocolatey n spicy and fermented taste was basically gone or changed to blend and be almost unnoticeable)...then I used 1 tea bag to 1 cup water then added sugar and half n half to see if as good...and it was very enjoyable :) not as strong as with 2 bags, less chocolatey tasting and more chai tea spicy tasting. So in all I found I really like this tea in every way I tried it, so it is a winner for me :) I just don't hold my mug under my nose when not drinking this tea. Lol.

Tastes good.

Value meets the need for tea and not to eat chocolate. . Numi does test for heavy metals. I do not like the taste of cardamom or nutmeg so am glad it is watered down with black tea and I use milk to cool it off to drink.

Seems forever I've been trying to find an organic chocolate tea that tastes somewhat chocolatey. The problem I've encountered is that the chocolate tea choices are mostly mint-chocolate varieties and the mint overwhelms the chocolate to the extent that you can't taste it. I also tried a variety pack of chocolate teas, again without finding anything that I'd be interested in consuming on a regular basis. Numi's is different. It's not a chocolate blend, just dark chocolate puehr. And it's pretty near perfect. The underlying tea isn't so strong that it overpowers the chocolate. And the blend doesn't contain too much chocolate that it might compete with a cup of hot cocoa. Somehow it's perfectly satisfying. At last.

have no pu-erh flavor. Taste like Chinese meat broth.

OMG Heaven in a tea cup, I locked my bedroom door, Colored my hair & drank this amazing treat while coloring the grays😋 ABSOLUTELY will buy this again & again, lite chocolate SMOOTH flavor

This tea really does taste like chocolate! The chocolate flavor is surprisingly strong and does a great job of not making the tea taste artificial. The other flavors hint nicely too. The underlying tea is still appropriately strong, and I usually let it brew longer before pouring it into a very large bottle for all day use. I've mostly switched to loose leaf tea, but this is one tea bag I have not been able to replace. It is also one of those teas that consistently gets a positive reaction when I share it with other people. I drink it hot and keep coming back to it for the flavor.

So delicious - exactly what I’m looking for

Chocolate Puerh, Bio - Numi Tea taste great and is easy to make and have any time of day. refreshing drink, and a wonderful pick me up.

It is a horrible tasting tea. It says chocolate. Just one question. Where is the chocolate taste? It has nothing to do with chocolate nor tea. Very disappointed.

Good tea; massively overpriced; especially the postage.
