Just Plain WOW!!!!!

Silly me…I thought they meant it when they said it’d take 7-10 business days for my tea to arrive.
I ordered it Friday afternoon. I got it today.
I’ve had two cups, and all I can say is just plain WOW!!!!!!!!!
One of the boxes I got was a “cuppa chocolate sampler.” I thought I’d try the banana chocolate first, thinking that would be the least desirable tea. Oh, no. It’s incredible. The primary aroma is banana, but you can taste both the banana and the chocolate.
The other cup I had for an after-dinner treat was chocolate mint, called “A Cup of Merry Mint.” It was delightful, with the gentle taste of mint and chocolate where, like chocolate banana, neither overpowers the other.
As soon as I finish this delightful cup I’ll put my soup in containers and into the freezer. But I had to share the joy of this delicious tea that arrived today…and say “thank you” one more time.

@FourWalls I am glad you were pleased with your tea purchase. I drink coffee, but not often. I prefer tea, but not when iced. I only like it hot and primarily drink herbals.

@FourWalls I drink both but like a true Marine to spite the Navy like coffee better.
Actually in my day, never drank either and one of the few marines that stood up for the Navy, who is gonna patch you up, not the Army or the Air force, it will be your brothers and sisters from the Navy. You better treat them with respect, why I always had neat support, people so silly with this they have to be our way or they the enemy. No one said that and just because they not in your immediate family does not mean their not family. People so silly how they look at life.

These were ordered from a company called the Republic of Tea.

For me, it’s hard to find good chocolate mint tea. And I don’t consider myself a “tea snob.” The Bigelow Peppermint Bark is outstanding.

It came from Champagne-Urbana, Illinois. If it hadn’t needed a stop at the FedEx hub in Covington it would’ve been here even quicker.

@wolfgirl569 — I know! There’s a Bigelow distribution center here in town. I’ve wanted to ask if I could just stop by and pick it up myself instead of having it delivered.

I use the “small” setting on the photo, which seems to cause no problems.
The teas I’ve had were great. I want to try that coconut chocolate, because I have visions of it tasting like a Mounds bar.

Is it real mint or artificial flavor? Because I have an allergy to real mint but it sounds good, so does the chocolate banana.

@jnrdutton — I’m sorry. 
I have food allergies so I’m always checking labels myself. I know how frustrating that can be.

I haven’t checked the ingredients, but companies like Republic of Tea like using real ingredients, so my assumption would be that it’s real mint.

It’s superb. Honestly, banana chocolate isn’t a flavor combination I’d normally seek out.

I had the red velvet today. Not as good as the banana chocolate, but still quite good.

I'm not much of a tea drinker but those sound really good I do enjoy tea occasionally and I think I would really enjoy the banana chocolate one.

I was elated with what I thought would be the “worst” (comparatively speaking….how can you mess up chocolate!?!??) tea in the sampler. I guess I should try the red velvet next, because I would “think” that would be the best flavor.
