I got the chance to try out Whittard of Chelsea's Spring 2024 range, which features new coffees, teas, hot chocolate, and sweet treats, all featuring stunning exotic flavours.

The luxury floral packaging perfectly encased a selection of oolong teas, coffee, hot chocolate, and biscuits, making for a beautiful and indulgent experience.

Starting with the teas, specifically the oolong variety, they had extravagant flavours.

The coconut oolong tea had a traditional, light refreshing taste, with the coconut flavour complimenting the oolong and not being too overwhelming.

The blend is delicately sweet and creamy.

However, the dragon fruit oolong tea was the standout among the two I tried, and this blend had a tropical twist, featuring flavours of apple, pineapple, and dragon fruit.

As they come as a loose tea, the strength can be adjusted depending on personal preference and I found myself having these all the time – they just smelt amazing and the scent filled the rooms.

Next was the coffee, a light blonde roast, which required grinding as it came as full beans.

I made it using an AeroPress, and the result was a smooth, light blend that wasn't overwhelmingly strong.

This coffee had a fruity touch to it that lifted the taste, making it a delightful brew – I’ve actually only just started enjoying coffee so its perfect for someone who doesn’t want an overwhelmingly strong blend.

This was perfectly complemented the coconut dark chocolate chip and almond biscuits, which were just delicious and lovely and flaky.

Last but not least, was the coconut hot chocolate which embodied luxury in each sip, with its creamy and rich texture.

My dad always taught me growing up that hot chocolate is made best in a pan. So, I heated milk on the hob and then added around three heaped spoonful of mix for each cup and mixed it in until it was hot.

I paired it with whipped cream and marshmallows, making it into a full-blown decadent dessert.

Undoubtedly, the hot chocolate stole the show and was the highlight of the whole experience.

The quality and flavour of these products, especially the hot chocolate, surpass anything you might find in most coffee shops, and I can't help but want to share these gem with others.

This collection is perfect if you are looking to host a fancy tea party or simply treat yourself to a luxurious experience.

The Spring 2024 range from Whittard of Chelsea is great for anyone who appreciates high-quality brews and sweet treats, one that will surely start conversations and leave lasting memories.
