Full Description

Black Chocolate is our take on a chocolate-inspired tea. We use a base of Yunnan breakfast tea, chosen for its rounded body, malty depth, and subtle natural sweetness. To this we add cocoa shells, the outer husk of roasted cocoa beans, which release gentle chocolate notes when infused.

The result is a tea that feels both familiar and distinctive. The malty warmth of Yunnan is lifted by the cocoa, creating a cup that is aromatic and satisfying without being overly sweet or heavy. Unlike flavoured teas that rely on added flavourings, this blend draws character directly from the ingredients, allowing both the tea and cocoa to shine.

Black Chocolate is versatile in the cup. It makes a smooth afternoon pick-me-up and a comforting evening drink, providing richness without the heaviness of hot chocolate or sweetened alternatives. For those seeking a tea with indulgent character that remains true to its origins, this blend offers a distinctive yet balanced experience.

Ingredients

The base of this blend is Yunnan Breakfast tea from the Yunnan province in southwestern China, known for its large, twisted leaves and naturally rich, malty character. Its depth and subtle cocoa-like notes provide the ideal smooth, full-bodied foundation for a chocolate focused blend.

Cocoa shells, the outer husk of roasted cocoa beans, are added to introduce a gentle chocolate aroma and flavour. They create a soft, aromatic chocolate note that complements the malty body of the Yunnan tea without overpowering it.

Together, these ingredients produce a balanced, indulgent cup that is smooth, aromatic, and approachable. Perfect for those that love a hot chocolate but don’t want all the sugar. This blend is hand-blended in-house at Waterloo Tea in Wales, UK, which ensures consistency and quality in every batch while supporting the craft and care behind the product.
