Description

This new flavor combines the full, bright taste of Ceylon black tea with the toasty, creamy sweetness of hazelnuts. Hazelnut's natural pairing with chocolate makes this tea a perfect complement with dessert or a touch of our sugar crystals.

Story

Hazelnuts are often associated with decadent and rich treats such as chocolates, nougats, café lattes, and Nutella. There are 100 different varieties known that grow throughout the world. The hazelnut is also referred to as Filberts, named after the saint whose day of celebration also fell on the first day of the nut's harvest. In ancient times, hazelnuts were thought to conjure up mystical powers to steer cult members towards water sources and buried treasure.

"This is quite yummy. I had it with milk and honey and the hazelnut flavor was present, but not overwhelming. I can't help but wonder what would happen if I mixed it with chocolate and strawberry teas...."

"I adore hazelnut, so I'm rather picky when it comes to it- but this tea was superb. The hazelnut was subtle, natural, & perfectly balanced: a perfectly mild body tea. Nothing artificial, or cloyingly sweet here; just pure nutty goodness. I did not find it akin to coffee~ this is a mild blend, something you could drink several cups of without tiring of it; & works well too as a base if you compensate for that fact. If you are a fan of true hazelnut, and not the syrupy-sweet artificial junk than you will be thrilled with this tea. It's nuttiness makes it naturally prone to bitterness; so be careful not to overbrew; 2-3 minutes at near but not actually boiling will suffice; anything more 7 you'll find yourself drinking bitter tea. Increase the amount, not the brew time if the flavor isn't strong enough for you, but allow for it to be a milder brew, and try to appreciate it's subtle nuances. You won't be dissapointed."
