Stash Chocolate Mint Wuyi Oolong Tea

The mint tends to come through a bit stronger than the chocolate, though both flavors are clearly detectable. Think of it as a refreshing mint-forward blend with smooth cocoa undertones rather than a chocolate-heavy dessert tea. The oolong base keeps things balanced and mellow, so neither flavor overwhelms. If you're hoping for a rich hot chocolate experience, you might find it lighter than expected, but if you enjoy mint with a hint of chocolate, this delivers beautifully.

It's genuinely versatile—several reviewers specifically mention enjoying it both ways. The chocolate-mint combination works wonderfully as a refreshing iced tea, especially in warmer weather. Hot preparation brings out more of the cocoa notes and aroma, while iced brewing emphasizes the mint's brightness. Either way, you get that smooth, balanced flavor profile.

Absolutely. This is one of the most beginner-friendly oolongs you'll find. The familiar chocolate-mint flavor makes it approachable (think of it as a dessert-like introduction to oolong), and being bagged means no fussing with loose leaf measurements. The flavor is forgiving—it doesn't get overly bitter if you steep it a bit too long. Yet there's still enough complexity from the Wuyi oolong base to keep things interesting as you develop your tea palate.

It can be on the milder side with a standard brewing ratio, but that's easy to adjust. If you prefer a stronger flavor, simply use less water or steep a bit longer than the package suggests. Many tea drinkers actually appreciate the moderate strength—it means you can customize it to your taste without worrying about it becoming harsh or overpowering. The smooth, mellow character holds up well even with extended steeping.

The aroma is pleasantly aromatic and gives you a good preview of what's coming—you'll smell both the mint and chocolate notes before you even take a sip. The taste delivers on what the aroma promises, with that same balanced chocolate-mint combination. It's not one of those teas where the scent is amazing but the flavor disappoints. What you smell is genuinely what you get.

The value here is solid—you're getting a large quantity at a reasonable price point—but it's a fair amount of tea to commit to if you've never tried it. If you already know you enjoy chocolate-mint tea combinations or flavored oolongs, the bulk pack makes sense. If you're uncertain, see if you can find a single 18-bag pack to test first. That said, the flavor profile is pretty universally appealing (smooth, not overwhelming, versatile), so it's a relatively safe bet for most tea drinkers.
