Harney & Sons Fine Teas partnered with celebrity chef Marcus Samuelsson to inspire and create the Ambessa Tea Collection, a fine African tea collection. This particular blend is called Choco Nut and it has perfect velvety undertones of dark chocolate, caramel, and peanuts. It is a rich, aromatic black tea blend, containing marigold petals and apricot. This tea does not contain nuts.
Interesting fact: A passion for flavour and love of tradition is at the core of Ambessa. A reflection of Celebrity Chef Marcus Samuelsson's journey from Ethiopia to Sweden to Harlem, Ambessa is made with a dedication to quality, culture and tradition. Tea is global and so is Ambessa. Whether using delicate lingonberries from Scandinavia or rich black teas from Africa, Ambessa aims to connect drinkers with a sense of place. Each blend is a reflection of Chef Marcus Samuelsson’s own journey as well as his passion for worldwide culinary creativity. Ambessa strives for bold interpretations of classic tea blends. The heady, robust notes of Safari Breakfast embody Africa’s heritage of rich spices and diversity.
