We're surprised no-one else has ever thought of this before, given how often we dunk chocolate biscuits into cups of tea. Tea and chocolate - a partnership so perfect, it belongs between the pages of a Mills and Boon novel.
Louise the tea taster saysEver dunked chocolate biscuits into cups of tea? Tea and chocolate. Together. In one cup. A perfect partnership.
Difficult to please - you know, when you want everything and you want it now? Like wanting the taste of chocolate but without the calories?
Try it with milk. Or maybe a little cream?
Iced
Just cover one tea temple with boiling water and infuse for 3 minutes. Remove temple and top-up glass with iced water.
Whole leaves take longer to brew, but the little wait is definitely worth it.
Whether you’re tucked up on the sofa with a movie or throwing a Christmas bash, teapigs tea toddies will become your new best winter companion in no time.

Chocolate flake tea
by • 6th November 2009
“Having been disappointed in the past with 'flavoured' teas, I was somewhat sceptical about a drink that promised tea and chocolate in one cup. To my delighted surprise, it does exactly what it says on the tin! An indescribable taste that truly combines a cuppa and a chocolate biscuit.” |
Gorgeous!
by • 14th December 2010
“This tea is simply divine! It's like a hot chocolate without the calories, like a cuppa without the sugar, tea without the biscuits! It's absolutely scrumptious, perfect with a little milk just before bed, helps me to drift off in to a lovely sleep and it tastes gorgeous. Only got a taster, but I am going to buy a big pack of these. My new favourites.” |
lovely cuppa tea
by catalina • 2nd May 2012
“I was not sure what to expect from this flavoured black tea, but i am more then pleased with my purchase. it has a suble chocolate flavour and a gorgeous smell. I had it both with and without milk and love it just the same. one of my favourite teas:)” |
Lovely!
by Amanda • 21st November 2012
“This is a lovely tea - so refreshing! I was hoping that it might be a little more chocolatey, the flavour is very subtle, but it is so nice, and a real pleasure to drink. There's just enough of a chocolate tinge to make it taste different, but not so much that you're in danger of confusing your beverages! Love it.” |
Chocolate Flake Tea
by Ellie Stringer • 2nd February 2015
“This is gorgeous, perfect if you on a diet but still want to have a pudding by having this as your after meal tea. I have given it to friends who have come for a cuppa and a chat and all have become converts to it after the initial "ooh not sure I want to try as that sounds weird"” |
Nice
by Jane Barlow • 6th July 2019
“The first time I tried this I made it in a mug and was disappointed. It was very wishy washy. Tried it again in a smaller cup and it was much better. Really enjoyed it with a couple of choccy biscuits” |
Tea and chocolate - yummy!
by • 18th August 2008
“We both really like this tea! I am not keen on what I think of as gimmik-tea so was quite sceptical about it, only ordering the trial pack. On taking a sip you get the chocolate and then tea, so well balanced and delicate, and not at all 'gimmiky'. My hubby enjoyed it just as much as I did! |

The Best Tea Ever!
by Hazel • 8th May 2012
“This is without a doubt the best tea ever! |
Delicious!!
by Joanne Cox • 17th December 2013
“My new favourite to drink before bedtime! I love the subtle hint of chocolateyness ... a lovely cup of tea with a splash of milk that tastes like you've dunked a couple of chocolate digestives in it but without the crumbs at the bottom of the cup! :-) |
Good but !
by Miranda • 6th August 2019
“Shame its not available loose leaf :(” |
How indulgent
by • 7th November 2006
“This is a really surprising tea. It's chocolatey but not sickly. I think its best served strong to really get the flavour of the chocolate. I can see myself drinking through the packet really fast - I would love you to give the option of a 100g bag. |
Chocolate flake tea.
by • 17th November 2008
“I am not usually keen on tea mixed with different flavours, but this was a pleasant surprise. I brew my teas quite weak, so there was more of a vanilla rather than a chocolate taste, but this was very pleasant. I would definitely recommend this, especially as an afternoon pick-me-up!” |
the most delicious tea
by • 4th February 2010
“I have it with soya cream and lots of brown sugar.. it's amazing, even nicer than hot chocolate. Each bag can just about be used twice too if you fancy a second cup :)” |
So good!
by Snorkmaiden • 18th December 2013
“I wasn't expecting this tea to be this good - I had a sample pack and have already ordered more! Perfect if you love to drink hot chocolate but want something a bit lighter. The chocolate is light, sweet and subtle and really doesnt ruin the taste of the tea.” |
Absolutely teapiglicious!
by Anastasija Gore • 31st March 2015
“I love this tea! Its like a cake in a mug:)” |
mmmmmmmmmmmmm
by • 31st January 2007
“delicious with a little milk. subtle chocolatey flavor.” |
Gorgeous!
by • 12th February 2009
“I don't really have a sweet tooth but thought I'd try this anyway as a vegan who doesn't eat chocolate that much. |

Delish
by • 10th January 2011
“I got the sample pack of these thinking this will never work, chocolate and tea!!! How wrong was I, this is delish, the chocolaty taste is like the best expensive chocolate, not really sweet like I was thinking it would be. Now I have to order the bigger pack as I think this could become an addiction - esp as I have given up chocolate for Jan but this doesn't count if its in a tea does it!!!!” |
Comfort tea
by Lisa • 8th January 2014
“When I first tried this tea I was somewhat disappointed and can't really taste the chocolate it's very subtle, however a few cups later and I am totally hooked. I love it in the evening with a dash of honey for sweetness and find it very comforting. I Would love this in larger boxes.” |
Mmm...delicious!
by • 24th February 2007
“Not at all sugary sweet as you might expect. I drink this strong and black to let the earthy chocolatey flavour shine through. The aroma is heaven too. A perfect cuppa to indulge after a bad day!” |
Don't ever buy hot chocolate again!
by • 18th February 2009
“This is the tastiest, most indulgent tea I've ever had. It's like having a cuddle with every sip. Hot chocolate or chocolate/coffee combos will only taste chemically from now on!” |
Wonderfull!!!
by • 20th February 2010
“A brilliant, decadent, luxuarious tea! A real must for an afternoon 'perk up' at your work desk and a real talking point!!” |
Yummy!
by Lisa • 1st August 2012
“This tea is lovely! It has a chocolate "essence" taste rather than if you'd melted a bar of Dairy Milk into your mug, and so it works really well and isn't weird or sickly. It might even replace my regular cuppa!” |
a marriage made in heaven
by • 20th March 2007
“This tea is ideal for a mid-afternoon pick-me-up and you can really taste the chocolate. A great way to get a chocolate hit without eating any! Chocolate and tea really do go together very well indeed.” |
Fragrant
by • 5th March 2010
“The fragrance of the chocolate flake tea leads you on to a delicious, smooth, melt in the mouth experience. It makes such a lovely change and is not too sweet either.” |
Romantic and Indulgent
by • 25th January 2011
“After playing around with this tea a few times, I happily share with you the way to get the most out of it. Some of you say this tea is too weak. The trick? Brew it in 4 oz of water - no more than that - and add healthy amounts of sugar and cream. It's perfect this way! Try it. You will love it.” |
Mmm,,,
by Michaela Adams • 9th August 2012
“This tea is such a treat. I find it really relaxing and comforting to drink. Gorgeous real chocolate flavour without being too sweet. I just wish this came in boxes of 50!” |
Amazing, totally addicted!
by Phoebe Scott • 7th February 2013
“When I first had it I wasn't sure I liked it but I just kept wanting it so now it's pretty much all I drink. Really takes the edge off of chocolate cravings without the flavour being too overwhelming. Definitely worth a try. I love it.” |
Chocolate Flake Tea - something different
by Christine Sanders • 11th September 2015
“Absolutlely love this. So glad I tried it as I was not sure what to expect. I will now drink it on a regular basis. Delicate chocolate flavour, with a hint of vanilla. Lovely if you dunk a chocolate biscuit it it too |
Yum yum
by • 13th March 2009
“I had trouble with this at first as I am a cheap-chocolate junkie to a disgusting level. So I expected it to be sugary, really chocolatey, 'gimmicky'. But it shouldn't be. If you approach this expecting a hot chocolate contocion you will be disappointed but if you approach this as a tea you will be very pleased. It's basically a lovely black tea with a comforting, chocolatey, almost malty hint, as if you dipped a couple of chocolate coated biscuits in before you took a sip. I will certainly get this again.” |
Thumbs up
by • 8th March 2010
“Didn't buy this 4 myself, fort it wud b a opportunity 2 covert my chocolate-lovin herbal tea-hatin fiancé into a teapigs fan! This it did! Wil b orderin more temples soon! Very impressed wit these temples!” |
Dont be fooled
by • 4th March 2011
“Does not taste like chocolate, it tastes like tea that has had chocolate biscuits dunked in it :D The taste is really good, and I was amazed the description was so accurate. Im just warning those people who didnt read it properly like I didnt and expected it to taste like chocolate lol.” |
Wonderful tea!
by Judy • 2nd September 2012
“This is just SUCH a nice tea - I think it's my favourite of all the non-standard teas I've tried. Sadly, I can't remember where I bought it, so I've had to come to the website to get my fix! No worries .. I'm discovering more interesting tea!” |
My new favourite drink!
by Liz Sweet • 22nd March 2013
“As a previous lover of hot chocolate but wanting to cut out as much sugar as possible this is an excellent alternative for me. It's not overally sweet but as a Latte adds a hint to the drink and is not to overpowering. |
The best treat
by Jessica Majlund • 29th January 2014
“I LOVE this tea,so much! I have mine with slighly frothed soy milk, and it´s awesome. Had to order another package just a few days after this one arrived - I can´t risk having to wait for a new one to come when this is finished! :)” |
Chocolate flake tea

Better than a choc biscuit!

“I'm hooked on chocolate flake tea and it's so healthy. It doesn't need any bad things just enjoy it has it comes.” |
Mmmmmm
by • 14th March 2010
“Wasn't expecting to like this. It's great. Just told all my facebook friends - it's that nice! Well done piggies.” |
It takes time
by • 16th April 2011
“I didn't like it at first but when I tried it again I left it for a long brew and had it black with one sugar. I love the subtle chocolate after taste. Don't take this expecting a hot chocolate type taste its nowhere near that but it is enjoyable.. I'm ordering more now!” |
Love!
by Claire • 8th September 2012
“Love,love,love this tea! It's a luxurious grown up treat without any of the guilt! It's chocolate and vanilla, smooth and almost creamy and the smell is just DIVINE!” |
This One Converted Me!
by Hannah Head • 31st March 2013
“I never liked tea at all until I bought this tea on a whim when I was on holiday a few years ago. I'm a total convert - chocolate and tea, what could be better!” |
Amazing!
by Nicole • 4th February 2014
“This tea is so yummy, just the right amount of chocolate flavour to keep my cravings at bay!” |
Bulk buy
by Ged Holmyard • 13th June 2016
“My fave everyday tea. Would love it more if it was on bulk buy.” |
Warning: Highly Addictive!
by • 9th April 2009
“So comforting and relaxing, has a lovely smell and subtle chocolate taste. I've always been a coffee addict rather than a tea drinker but the Teapigs Chocolate tea has completely converted me. I'd take this over any other hot drink. Both myself and my husband love it and I've now converted my Mum too! Respect to Teapigs! x” |
Love these for a change.
by • 16th June 2011
“I tried these because they sounded so nice. They are so creamy and so moreish. When I tried these my mum and sister was round put it this way my 15 tea bags have now nearly gone and they have both putting orders in.” |
Yummy!
by Katie Prior • 26th September 2012
“Not overly chocolatey, but a lovely subtle treat to convert the 3pm tea break! (I add a little sugar and milk, perfect!)” |
Choco flake.....those special moments
by Lisa • 23rd April 2013
“I'm a massive tea maker. I even have a coffee machine (given to me as a present) and I use it to heat & froth milk to add to my tea!! |
A Subtle Treat!
by • 12th October 2007
“Not as chocolatey as I'd hoped but definitely yummy! I prefer my teas without milk or sugar and this one taste good like this - nice with milk & sugar too though! My tea order arrived really quickly and the packaging is brilliant - the teabags smell lovely! :-)” |

Really Unusual
by Claire D'Arcy • 11th October 2012
“We tried this when visiting a hotel recently and weren't sure what to expect. Turns out it is lovely. Good tea undertone but with a lovely chocolatey taste. Really good both with and without milk.” |
Bigger box please
by Ged Holmyard • 2nd February 2017
“This is easily my favourite tea along with your Mint & Licorice. Could I add to the clamour of requesting you make it available in a more economical box of 50. Thanks,” |
if choco craving hits....
by • 29th November 2007
“...then run for tea cupboard and have a cup of this love cholocate tea - the best satisfying drink to keep you slim and make you happy. I teach slimming fitness classes and I recommended to all my students as aid in their quest of losing pounds.” |
Indulgence ! Pure Indulgence!
by • 23rd May 2009
“Just opening the box made me want to eat the tea temple - it has such a deep chocolately aroma and I boiled the kettle pronto! The taste is gorgeous, I never knew tea and chocolate went together so brilliantly. This tea is one of my favourites and it would make an amazing gift - I'm going to get stocked up for Xmas and Birthdays!” |
A real treat..
by • 4th April 2010
“This smells greats and tastes really smooth with just a hink of something yummy! Great for a mid morning 'snack' break without all the calories!” |
addicted
by Ann McD • 17th December 2011
“We got these 1st in Ambleside, only place we've ever seen them. late night treat for us, so subtle... have ordered plenty. Thanks for a good product” |
Amazing, wish I had more
by Sarah • 13th May 2013
“Can't believe how much I love this tea! I pinched a sample of it from my mum today who was sent it but worried to try it. |
Nice sweet treat
by Usha • 8th February 2017
“I love the chocolate flake tea by Teapigs. The flavour is subtle, so it feels sweet but healthy at the same time. Highly recommend this tea - it's f**king amazing!!!!!!!!” |

Best chocolate tea I've tried
by • 27th February 2008
“This smells so delicious; very creamy and heavy on the chocolate. Once brewed, it isn't quite as chocolate-y as I was hoping for but chocolate tea never really is, in my experience. That said, this is the very best chocolate tea I've tried to date. I had it with a splash of milk, nothing else, and it was a wonderfully smooth, indulgent cup. Very relaxing. I can see myself reaching for this a lot in future.” |
Like a cuddle in a cup.
by • 9th June 2009
“Absolutely adore this tea, from the smell to the taste I wasn't dissapointed. Not sweet and sickly, but warm, malty and comforting. Well done teapigs you've done it again. A wee cracker of a cuppa.” |
Subtle but gorgeous
by Natalie • 17th January 2012
“This tea is lovely to drink as an everyday-type tea, personally I leave it to brew for quite a while and add milk. The result is a creamy tea with an undertone of chocolate - don't buy this tea expecting a cup of chocolate but although the taste is subtle it really does make the world of difference! Addicted, as is everyone I know who has tried it!” |
Rich and lovely
by Jessica Forbes • 24th August 2013
“I had my reservations about this particular tea so I purchased the sample pack. The tea is so rich and lovely - the chocolatey taste makes it feel like a real treat.” |
Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
by • 3rd August 2009
“How delightful but bizarre is chocolate flake tea! Let your nostrils bathe in its steam and you're brain will be tricked to think it's definitely a delicious cup of hot chocolate. Take a sip and your brain tumbles upside down and inside out: IT'S TEA! |
Delicious!
by • 17th September 2010
“Just bought the Chocolate tea and it's absolutely yummy! Added a bit of milk and had it with shortbread - a real treat! Well done Teapigs for yet another great tea!” |
Excellent
by Samantha warren • 30th January 2012
“I tried this tea having read some reviews, so I wasn't expecting something sweet or similar to hot chocolate. The dark chocolate taste is definitely there if left to brew properly, and gives the tea a very earthy, deep savoury flavour which is lovely.” |
Simply gorgeous
by Anna S • 28th May 2014
“I'm in love with this to the point where I get anxious when I run out!” |
Yummy

Dubious? Don't be!
by • 18th March 2008
“I was more than a little intrigued by the idea of a chocolate tea and I was sure I was going to be really disappointed by it. How wrong I was! First you get the taste of the tea, then the chocolate comes in...wow!! Amazing...try it, it's wonderful...!!!” |
Chocolate Tea
by • 4th August 2009
“Oh my god the perfect cuppa for taking "me time"! I cant get enough of it! I LOVE IT!” |
Delicious
by Laura • 15th February 2012
“Very delicious. Taste and smell are strong enough, at least for me, to cope with chocolate craving. Hope it will help me to loose weight. I wish it was available not only in temples but in loose tea pack too.” |
Amazing
by Kate Foxwell • 16th November 2012
“This tea is amazing. Its not sickly sweet there is just a hint and i feel it means we dont need sugar or milk is it rele good and make me feel soo awake and happy” |
Love love love.
by Jennifer • 21st October 2013
“My cousin directed me to teapigs when I was looking for something new. I received my first shipment in British Columbia, Canada and this was the first tea I tried. It was incredible. While the chocolate may not be strong for some, like a hot chocolate, the faint hint of it was delicious! I am so excited about all the tea I ordered. Another order will follow, with more of this tea, for sure.” |
mmm just had my first cup of chocolate flake tea...
by • 21st October 2009
“and I feel like I also dunked 3 chocolate digestives, but happily they are only in my imagination and not now resident on my hips! I have recently given caffeine up, guess I will have to take it up again - unless there is a caffeine-free version?” |
Lovely stuff
by • 10th October 2010
“This is divine - creamy and tastes like tea after chocolate biscuits have been dunked in. Much better without sugar as it is so creamy.” |
yummy!
by Jo • 16th February 2012
“I'm loving this tea, lovely chocolatey undertone and not at all sickly unless you stick cream in it. (Amazing as an occasional treat, bad idea on a regular basis if you don't have a really sweet tooth)” |
Love it
by Joanna Joss • 16th November 2012
“This has got to be one of my favourites! It's not super-chocolatey but it has this lovely rich flavour and sweet smell. I make mine with some semi-skimmed milk and a little sugar for a sweet treat. Make sure you leave it to brew for long enough, because the flavour really needs some time to develop.” |
Just like a chocolate digestive
by Catherine Stratton • 13th November 2013
“I saw this and thought I would give it a go, and wow. Just tastes like a chocolate digestive biscuit. The chocolate is subtle but there so doesn't ruin a good brew just makes it yummy! I was very good and had it with skimmed milk! New favourtie!” |
I love this tea
by Denise • 4th March 2019
“This is my favorite tea from the Teapigs range.” |
different 
by miss judy • 27th November 2013
“subtle, but satisfying - will not deliver a pronounced chocolate flavor, but worth the purchase - w/ a bit of honey it's lovely” |
Surprisingly nice
by Darren Holloway • 30th July 2012
“Wasn't sure what this would be like as not a great fan of chocolate drinks. I was pleasantly surprised by the subtle, mellow flavour, not sickly sweet at all. Perfect with a couple of biscuits.” |
Yumyumyuminess
by Rach • 7th January 2013
“Not super choc but a nice malty balance. Wasn't that vanillary for me. I had with just water and also hazelnut milk- different tastes the latter more creamier but on its own is comforting. Love it means can have tea without sweetner” |

A Surprising Favorite
by Holly • 8th January 2014
“I got a sample of this tea, and didn't think I would care for it much, but I do like it a lot! I love the smell. It's not a strong tea (which I usually like), but it's not weak either (although, I do think it tastes more flavorful brewed in a small mug with less water). Subtle chocolate taste. Love!” |
Intriguing, dark and sultry!
by • 22nd May 2007
“doesn't taste at all as would expect - tastes lovely but not necessarily like chocolate. It's smooth and rich and really delicious - its an intriguing tea (I guess good chocolate should be intriguing) its complex and absolutely unique. The smell is phenomenal and is just so indulgent.I think I'm hooked!” |
Early days for this tea
by • 18th March 2009
“Have tried this chocolatey tea but still not so sure about it. Will keep drinking it and see if it grows on me. |
Smells weird...tastes SO GOOD
by Sophie • 6th February 2014
“I am quite a 'tea sniffer' in that I can't actually drink any tea (english breakfast etc) without sniffing it first. I know that sounds odd but we taste with other senses too! And I hate when my tea smells of milk, so I know I've gone overboard if it starts to smell of milk...anyway, I digress. The reason I started this review that way is because when I initially smelt the bags I was a bit put off, and the smell of the tea when brewed isn't my favourite either...BUT...the taste is AMAZING. It really does feel like a warm hug, soothing, tastes beautiful and I already know the next 14 bags are going to be gone in seconds. Top marks Teapigs!!” |
MmmMMmM!
by • 7th May 2009
“I really like this tea. For me, it tastes more like chocolate the less time you leave it to brew, so I'd recommend leaving it in for just a minute or so. Was kind enough (grudgingly) to give a tea bag to each of my staff and they all loved it. Wouldn't have it every day like the oolong, just as a treat when in the mood.” |
Winter favourite
by Catherine • 14th December 2011
“I've tried it on its own, with sugar, with sugar and milk etc. |
Guilt free cheat
by Sarah Doyle • 27th March 2014
“Wasn't expecting a great deal from this so i just ordered a sample pack to test it, however with a bit of frothed up soya milk and a teaspoon of honey this is the best treat. |
Sweet...
by • 4th June 2009
“A nice sweet tea. The best (black) chocolate tea i have tried. Not bitter” |
An Interesting Twist...
by Jo Smith • 31st May 2013
“When I first tried this tea, back in December 2012, I wasn't overly impressed. Today, I received my latest teapigs order (thankyouverymuch :) ) and inside the parcel, the free sample teabag was this tea. I also had one peppermint teabag left, and I love mint chocolate, so thought I'd experiment! Both teabags in the mug together, and then full-fat milk added when it was ready = DIVINE! |
Surprisingly tasty
by Hanya Latif • 5th November 2012
“Having looked at quite mixed reviews on here I went ahead and got some. |
Found in a cafe, going to be ordering from now on!
by Caroline • 11th May 2014
“I like to have a change from what I normally have when I go out for tea and cake. Saw this tea on the menu in Chelsea Quarter Cafe and decided to try. The smell and flavour are subtle but i enjoyed it immensely especially with the piece of chocolate brownie which complimented the chocolate taste!” |
Just
by • 8th March 2008
“This tea is'nt unpleasant at all, it's nice with a little sweetness and a light chocolaty flavour. It would be nice to know if the chocolate is dark or milk (suitable for vegans ?) It's ok, but not as good or unusual as the chillie version!” |
A good mixer...
by • 20th March 2008
“When I first tried the chocolate tea I was a little disappointed that it wasn't more chocolatey, but then this is a tea not a hot chocolate. |
Nice in theory - Not so in practice
by • 17th June 2008
“The tea temple smelt magnificent the chocolatey aroma so strong that even my 18 month old knew that there seemed to be chocolate in there until I brewed it. When I tasted it - the subtle taste was what I had expected from the not so positive reviews on here and I apprieciated that the reviews were so honest. |
Chocolate flake tea

just not strong enough
by Emma • 8th July 2012
“lovely, and I'll buy again, but I wish the tea part was slightly stronger. I've ended up leaving the tea bag in while I drink.” |
I can't really make my mind up about this one
by Harry Davies • 24th January 2014
“Certainly different. Definitely not a love hate. I'm going to go with someone elses advice and add a little honey” |
Nice, but not my absolute favourite
by Mel Cooke • 12th October 2016
“I wasn't sure what to expect with this, but it was okay. My true love is Rooibos Creme Caramel, so maybe I just have a super sweet-tooth, but I probably wouldn't get this Chocolate Flake tea again.” |
Good but Not Chocolately
by Eunice • 10th November 2012
“smells & tastes good but note the chocolate taste is minimal” |
"It's alright"

“Got this a s a free sample, gave it to my eight year old son. Did he like it? "Not particularly" he said, at first, but then changed his response to "It's alright". He liked the smell, didn't finish the tea.” |
Disappointing
by Sam Reeves • 21st November 2012
“As a chocolate lover, I was hoping that this tea would be different and really indulgent. |
not chocolatey enough for me
by • 6th January 2011
“baffled by comments saying it tastes better than hot chocolate. this is a high quality, herby tea that smells slightly chocolatey.. but for me it really doesn't taste much of chocolate - maybe the faintest, faintest hint. was similarly disappointed by the creme caramel. i can really appreciate the quality, but for me it doesn't taste how i was hoping.” |
Underwhelming...

“From the description, I was expecting something more chocolatey, to be honest. Smells heavenly, but even with double cream in, it still tastes more vanilla-y, than chocolatey. Vanilla is nice, but when you're expecting chocolate, it's a bit, well, weird, and not really doing what it says on the box... |
Not my cup of tea
by Michelle Yau • 31st March 2015
“Was a bit disappointed with this to be honest. There was no real flavour of at all and it smelt quite sickly. Won't be buying again, so glad I only brought a sample pack! However, Teapigs, an interesting idea! :)” |
Not sold

“Bit of a wishy washy flavour. Not my fave!” |
Disappointed

“After taking over a week to arrive im not impressed, its not chocolatey enough and just tastes like a normal cup of tea.. only worse. Stick to your hot chocolate or dunking your biscuit!” |
So disappointing :-(

“I really, really wanted to like this tea. Sadly, I didn't. It wasn't chocolatey and just didn't taste right. I think i'll stick with hot chocolate! |
A let down
by Sherri • 5th May 2013
“Smelt great when brewed, the smell of the chocolate really came through, but when it came to taste, there was barely a hint of chocolate... Even when brewed for 5+ mins it was still the same, but then they barely add cocoa beans to this, and it's mostly chocolate chips which have little cocoa, and mostly consist of sugar... *or glucose ~shudders~*, which leads me to ask, please list what the chocolate chips are actually made of...” |
disapointing

“sorry guys, a little disapointed with this one..seemed to be no real flavour” |
Disappointed chocolate lover
by Caroline Corkery • 2nd May 2014
“As a chocaholic, I was like a child at Christmas when this tea arrived - I believe I had the kettle on as soon as I heard the postman outside the door! |
unconvincing..
by • 29th June 2010
“I really found this tea to be weak and uninspiring.. which is such a shame as I love the rooibbos creme caramel tea. it only has a mere hint of chocolate so to be honest, I'd rather crack open the jar of options for that guilt free chocolate hit.” |
Thoroughly disappointed
by Chantil • 5th March 2015
“I've had chocolate teas before and so was really looking forward to this one but was seriously disappointed. |
Very disappointed
by Sanne • 15th May 2015
“When I first tried your Liquorice and Mint I was hooked, and have felt in love with your teas over and over again, but this Chocolate Flake Tea however, was very disappointing. I regret buying this product.” |
Strange!
by • 25th February 2009
“I found this tea quite awful! I thought it was going to taste lke a strong hot chocolate but know its a horrible weak formula that gives you no type of hints of chocolate what so ever! it is even worse with milk!” |
Tastes like horrible hot chocolate
by David • 16th March 2014
“So this is the worst tea ive ever had.I love teapigs but wow. this tastes like a disgusting, watery hot chocolate. Absolutely dreadful.” |
Underwhelmed
by Sara • 30th October 2012
“Wasn't all that chocolately, which was so-so, but was very disappointed that the main body of the tea was very weedy and not flavoursome.” |
Very disappointing
by Laura • 30th December 2011
“I've had other chocolate teas that were like dessert without the calories. After reading the reviews I had high hopes about this one, but was very disappointed as there was only the slightest hint of chocolate which was mostly the aroma. Otherwise this tasted like ordinary tea. Much prefer the winter spice tea.” |
Not for me
by Sunna • 9th October 2017
“For me this tasted like roibos-tea, with a slightly bitter after taste. I did not taste any of the supposed chocolate flakes. A bummer when wanting something akin to the caramel tea which is fantastic. Luckily only ordered two bags, and won't buy any more.” |
Very disappointed
by Rachael Byrne • 14th October 2013
“I had high hopes for this tea being a massive chocoholic and couldn’t wait to try this when it arrived. |
Yuck

“weak, watery and bland |
Disappointing...
by Louisa • 29th April 2018
“Sadly I found this tea too sweet (perhaps my fault, if I’d read the ingredients I’d have noticed it had sugar in it). It’s not a patch on the chocolate tea from Hotel Chocolat.” |
Disappointed
by Keith P • 29th January 2015
“Well I would have hoped for a better cuppa” |
