Stash Chocolate Mint Wuyi Oolong Tea

The mint comes through a bit more prominently than the chocolate, but that's actually what makes it work so well. You get a refreshing minty character with subtle cocoa notes from the oolong base, creating a smooth, dessert-like flavor without being overly sweet. Think of it as a mint tea with chocolate undertones rather than a chocolate tea with mint. The oolong base keeps everything mellow and balanced, so it's never overwhelming.

Absolutely! This is one of the most beginner-friendly oolongs you'll find. The tea bag format makes brewing simple, and the flavor profile is consistently smooth without the bitterness that can come from over-steeping traditional oolongs. The chocolate-mint flavoring gives you something familiar to latch onto while you're getting accustomed to the oolong base. Just note that if you brew it at a standard 1-bag-per-cup ratio, some people find it a touch weak, so don't be afraid to use two bags or let it steep a bit longer.

Yes, it's genuinely versatile! The smooth, medium-intensity flavor translates well to both preparations. Hot, you'll get more of the aromatic experience with the pleasant chocolate-mint aroma coming through. Iced, it's refreshing without losing those signature flavor notes. The consistency is impressive either way—you're getting that same balanced taste whether you're sipping it warm on a cool morning or enjoying it cold on a summer afternoon.

You'll immediately notice the mint—it's the dominant flavor but not in an aggressive, toothpaste-y way. It's smooth and cooling. Behind that, there's a gentle chocolate or cocoa note that adds richness without sweetness. The oolong base provides a mellow, slightly earthy foundation that keeps everything grounded. The overall impression is 'delicious' and 'smooth' according to most who've tried it, with a medium intensity that's flavorful without being heavy. No bitterness, which is a big win for an oolong blend.

With a 92% consistency rating and people buying it in 6-pack bundles (108 bags total), this is clearly a tea that people come back to regularly. The balanced flavor profile means it's interesting enough to enjoy but not so intense that it becomes tiresome. It works as a daily drinker—whether you want something slightly indulgent in the afternoon or a soothing cup in the evening. The fact that it works hot or iced also helps keep it from feeling repetitive.
