*REVIEW* 

This tea is quite nice. I picked up a 10g sample at The Great British Tea Festival I went to at the end of last year because as a lover of coffee and tea I always try any blend that merges the two together and it's never failed me before. 

I never really drink Pu'erh tea, mainly because it's usually so expensive. For the price of this blend I think it's really good. Especially the sample size at only 70p! I mean you can't really go wrong for 70p can you. (I also picked up two other samples so expect them soon!). 

The Pu'erh tea is quite a strong taste, and is a much better flavour than if this was a regular black tea. It's isn't as bold but is strong enough to stand against the flavour of the coffee beans. The flavour of the coffee s really strong in this blend and I love that. There are loads of coffee beans amongst the leaves so it's nice to see this isn't a secondary flavour to the tea. They are really blended well together. The addition of the Cocoa Bits to adds a nice sweetness and creaminess to the blend which mellows the flavour to become more soft and soothing on the palette. 

Very Craftea are a company that sell loose leaf teas along with craft kits to complete whilst you're sipping on your brew. So whilst stocking blends such as Coffee Truffle to Divine Elixir and craft kits from Crochet Kits to Cross Stitch. I think this is a brilliant idea and a merge of the perfect Sunday afternoon. Plus it's heat if you want to get your kids into crafting too!
