Christmas in Paris Black Tea

Rich black tea, creamy chocolate, and tropical coconut come together in an indulgent cup inspired by the pleasure of warming up in a Parisian café with chocolat chaud.

The Experience

Christmas in Paris Black Tea is an invitation to imagine December in Paris: cold air outside, glowing café windows, and something warm and chocolatey waiting at a small table inside.

Full-bodied black tea provides the foundation, layered generously with chocolate and white chocolate chips for a rich, creamy character. Coconut flakes add another dimension—soft, sweet, and gently tropical—keeping this from tasting like an ordinary chocolate black tea.

The inspiration is chocolat chaud, the famously rich French approach to hot chocolate. Rather than trying to turn tea into hot cocoa, Christmas in Paris brings those two experiences together. Black tea gives the cup structure and depth, chocolate creates its indulgent center, and coconut adds a smooth, almost confection-like finish.

Enjoy it straight, and the black tea remains prominent. Add a splash of milk and the chocolate becomes softer and creamier, creating an especially luxurious winter cup. It's decadent, comforting, and just a little unexpected—a Parisian café moment captured in a teacup.

Christmas, Chocolate & the Parisian Café

Chocolate has a long history in France, arriving as an elite luxury before gradually becoming part of the country's celebrated confectionery and pastry traditions. Today, a cup of rich chocolat chaud remains one of the great pleasures of a French café—especially when winter weather makes lingering indoors particularly appealing.

That's the world the name Christmas in Paris invites you to imagine. Not necessarily the monuments or crowded boulevards, but a smaller moment: A café window glowing against a gray December afternoon. A pastry on the table. A warm cup held between cold hands. Nowhere you particularly need to be for the next few minutes.

Our version adds an unexpected note of coconut to the familiar pairing of tea and chocolate. It gives the blend a hint of le bon goût de la vie—the pleasure of the good life—while making Christmas in Paris distinctly different from our other chocolate teas.

You don't need a plane ticket. Sometimes Paris can begin with putting the kettle on.

Packaging: Our loose teas are sold by the ounce and packaged in food-grade resealable bags.
