Just
last week I was sent some tea from Charbrew to review ( wow – that rhymed! )
and to be honest I’ve not really heard of this company before, but after
checking out their website I instantly knew that whatever they were going to
send me would taste yummy! I was lucky enough to be sent 2 full sized boxes of Chocolate
Orange & Strawberry & Kiwi flavoured teas, both of which contained 15
biodegradable mesh bags of joy! The packaging is very eye catching and the tea
bags themselves were sealed in their packaging to keep the freshness in. It’s
safe to say I was very excited to try these out, as they’re not the typical
flavours that I would go for.
Chocolate Orange £3.99
A twist on the
traditional black tea, this whole leaf blend is mixed with rooibos organic coca
husk, orange peel, flavouring orange and flavouring chocolate to give a gentle
sweet lemon taste.
If
I was to visit a supermarket and I saw this tea I’d probably just walk away
because I wouldn’t usually associate chocolate and tea together unless it was a
cup of tea and a chocolate bar, but seriously this tea smelt and tasted
amazing! It smelt like Terry’s chocolate orange! The taste was a little bit
bland at first, but as you got used to it the flavours started kicking in. You
can add sugar to taste with this type of tea, but I decided to not interrupt
the natural flavours.
Strawberry & Kiwi £3.99
A twist on the traditional
black tea, this whole leaf blend is mixed with apple, rosehip sheels, hibisucus,
strawberry pieced, kiwi pieced and flavouring kiwiaroma to give a gentle sweet
lemon taste.
I
loved this flavour because it was so fruity. Although I love my fruit teas,
this wouldn’t be the flavour that I would usually grab if I was to go shopping
for fruit tea but, I really enjoyed it and what makes this different is the tea
bag! It really does make a huge difference to the taste of the tea and it’s so
nice to actually see the different fruit pieces. It’s actually very similar to
the Brew Tea Fruit Punch and would be perfect as an iced tea to drink on a hot summer’s
day in the garden.
Overall,
I really enjoyed both teas and want to see what the Choc Orange would taste
like with milk – you never know it could be a new way of enjoying a cup of tea
in the afternoon. The website holds many different flavours of tea including
their new Pineapple & Vanilla flavour and if you order £20.00 or more you
can get free delivery so, if you like tea and want to try something different
and actually get to see the real fruit pieces/tea that you’re drinking then go
grab yourself some tea from Charbrew HERE or your nearest Tesco, as they stock it too! :)
