Tins available with either 1.5oz loose roasted cacao shells, now blended with cut and sifted cinnamon and 20 Teabags roasted cacao shells, blended with cut and sifted cinnamon
Oliver's new favorite blend. You did not realize this was missing from your life.
Martha Washington enjoyed drinking cacao shell tea, which she made from roasted shells and sipped at breakfast. George Washington wrote to his agent, “She will, . . . thank you to get 20 Lbs of the shells of Cocoa nuts, if they can be had of the Chocolate makers."
Tasting notes: Aroma of cinnamon toast before brewing. Steeping in hot water unleashes a tonic of chocolate. The brew yields a full-bodied, slightly bitter infusion with strong notes of chocolate, and light flavors of cinnamon. Enjoy the flavors of cinnamon buns and coffee cake. The cut and sifted cinnamon is a natural complement to the flavor of cacao.
Caffeine: Cacao shell tea is caffeine-free, but it does contain other natural stimulants.
Brewing: Suggested serving per 10oz cup: 2 tsp, 195 degrees. Cacao shells take 10 minutes to infuse their full flavor.
