Consider one (or more) of these gift possibilities for the Valentine who loves tea and chocolate. Sweetly sentimental!
Jade Chocolates | Genmai
Japan inspired these bars, which are made with 35% milk chocolate, roasted brown rice, and jasmine tea. Maker Jade Chocolate writes: “The sweet milk chocolate is balanced by the deep nuttiness and crunchiness of the brown rice and is followed by the floral tea aftertaste.” The addition of the tea means this is a “Genmai Cha” bar.
