Chocolate Caramel Drizzle

Description

A cup of tea dripping in decadent chocolate and indulgent caramel. This blend of premium high-grown black tea is rich in antioxidants and contains an invigorating dose of caffeine. It is the perfect base for the layers of dark chocolate flavor and swirling notes of sweet caramel. With undertones of soft vanilla and custard this tea is a true treat for the senses.

The carob and cocoa enhance the natural chocolate flavor while also adding a boost of vitamins, minerals, and polyphenols. Both carob and cocoa are thought to promote good circulation and better blood flow. The theobromine in cocoa is said to help reduce inflammation. While holistic medicine may suggest carob to aid in gut health. Rich in flavor and rich in wellness benefits - this is the perfect tea to add to your collection.

Premium Tea and Natural Flavoring:
We only use high grown teas from the top 3 tea growing regions of Sri Lanka - Nuwara Eliya, Dimbula and Uva. These three high-grown districts produce flavorful teas that have classic Ceylon character which is noted by a floral bouquet, touches of mild astringency, and bright coppery color. We buy during peak season to ensure top quality and freshness. We only use natural flavoring on the tea as we do not want to mask the natural taste of high grown black tea (the overpowering and synthetic character of artificial flavoring is often used to hide lower quality tea).
