Formerly "Cacao Kisses," this decadent Colombian black tea combines cacao husks and nibs, from small chocolate producers in the Tumaco region, with bold, dark brown leaves to create this unique, naturally flavored selection. Sweet notes from the black tea base provide the perfect accent for the rich cocoa flavor.
