All things considered, Chapters Tea & Coffee is a relatively new company. (So new that the "& Coffee" part just launched a handful of months ago!) But they've already been making a name for themselves among lovers of books and caffeinated beverages across the Internet. Their blends and brews are inspired by classic literature, from a Hobbit-y English breakfast to a Little Women-inspired herbal. Over the winter holidays, they launched a trio of new flavors (two limited-edition, one still available)—and they've done it again for Valentine's Day.

A Date with Mr. Darcy is the second Pride & Prejudice-themed tea from Chapters, dedicated to the ultimate fictional crush. As with all their other offerings, this one features beautiful artwork depicting a romantic picnic within view of Pemberley. This is also the second tea blend to come in a tin: and while I love the bags and the room they allow for the artwork to shine, the tins are really something special, too.

The tea itself is a blend of black and white teas flavored with bergamot, vanilla, and rose petals. It's not nearly as strong as Poet's Study, their Poe-inspired Earl Grey—so if you like bergamot but prefer it to hit a little less hard, this is a good balance. The vanilla and rose in particular mellow it out, making this a genuinely gorgeous blend.

I feel a bit odd constantly earmarking new blends as my "new favorite," but A Date with Mr. Darcy hits pretty much all my high points for tea. Bergamot and rose is already a fantastic combination, but getting the balance right can be extremely difficult. Many places either bury the rose entirely under the bergamot or overcorrect in the other direction. Everything is perfectly balanced, making for a blend that is somehow both dreamy and invigorating. I can't recommend this one enough.
