Product Description: Real chocolate draws your eye. The scent of exotic spices pulls you closer. By the time you taste this rich and complex black tea, you’ve already fallen in love.
The first time I tried a tea from Talbott Teas was last year and it was their Chocolate Almond Allure and I instantly fell in LOVE. Not too long ago I was corresponding with Dr. Steven Nakisher from Talbott Teas on Facebook and he ended up sending me a few samples to try and possibly review. I was so excited! This was the customer service all other companies should take notes on! They are so nice to customers and potential customers! AND they have some really awesome ways to promote their products! Their website is wonderful and their labels and tins are clean, crisp, and tastefully done! Overall, Talbott Teas, is probably one of my favorite tea companies! They seem to have the complete package!
One of the teas that I have tried from them recently is their Cocoa Cardamom Seduction. I must say I was ‘taken’ by the name… does that mean “Mission Accomplished?” Perhaps.
The first cup I had of this I could clearly see ALL described ingredients! I couldn’t stop sniffing it!!! It was an AWESOME Chocolate Peanut Butter type smell.
The first sip I really did notice the cardamom but I think that was the idea of the whole thing, right!? I continued to sip and certainly picked up on both the Almond and the Cocoa. The cinnamon and cardamom pair together as they should and the pairing jumps up in front of the line but the Chocolate/Almond taste isn’t fair behind. The color of the tea liquid is a light-medium brown.
Now… the 2nd time I tried this tea… I purposely chose the loose leaf with less cardamom in it to see if there was a difference and there absolutely was! LOVELY! I enjoy it both ways, but now I LOVE the fact I can taste the difference with ease based on how much cardamom I choose to add or not add for my liking or tastes based on my mood!
So far… my favorite Talbott Tea is the Chocolate Almond Allure but this Cocoa Cardamom Seduction is a near second.
You can purchase the Cocoa Cardamom Seduction directly from the Talbott Teas website.
