Heat:
Chile pepper delivers a soft, warming spark, pleasantly tingly with a kick. It adds a lively contrast that elevates the cocoa and tea base, creating a beautifully layered experience.

Safflower Petals

Sweetly Smooth:
Carob rounds the blend with natural sweetness and a mellow, creamy body.

Gentle Heat Finish:
