Mighty Leaf's Chocolate Mint Truffle (review)

by Lainie P on January 24, 2009

mlminttruffleVideo Review: Check out the video review of this tea!

Name: Chocolate Mint Truffle

Brand:Mighty Leaf Tea

Type: Rooibos, tisane

Form: Loose leaf in silken tea pouches

Review: This rooibos based tisane boasts a fairly minty nose with chocolate and honey notes in the background. The taste is rich, again with the mint dominating and chocolate in the background. There is some natural sweetness, but this tisane is not at all sugary, and it does take well to having some sweetener added, though I myself prefer to drink it as is.  Can make a nice substitute for hot chocolate!

Recommendation: The mint note dominates, so if you are expecting intense chocolate flavor, you will be disappointed. Otherwise this is a thoroughly tasty tisane and an excellent option for those avoiding true tea because of its caffeine and tannin content.

Very cute! You have a voice for radio, ever think about a weekly show? :)

I am indeed thinking of a weekly radio program that might deal with tea topics more in depth. If you have any suggestions, Joie (or anyone else) please let me know!
