Getting custom taxonomy from custom post type

by

I have a custom post type called email_block and have a custom taxonomy called block_type. I need to loop through all the email blocks find out what custom taxonomy (block_type) they have. I know how get all the email block custom post types, it’s finding the what block_type they belong to is what I’m struggling with.

This is the code I have so far. I’m using a relationship field from advanced custom fields to filter what email blocks I want to display. 

<?php

$posts = get_field('block_selector');

if( $posts ): ?>
    <ul>
    <?php foreach( $posts as $post): // variable must be called $post (IMPORTANT) ?>
        <?php setup_postdata($post); ?>
        <li>
            <a href="https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/152510/<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
            <span>Custom field from $post: <?php the_field('author'); ?></span>
        </li>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
    </ul>
    <?php wp_reset_postdata(); // IMPORTANT - reset the $post object so the rest of the page works correctly 
    endif; ?>

You mean get_the_terms()?

<?php 
    $terms = get_the_terms( $post->ID, 'block_type' ); 
    foreach($terms as $term) {
      echo $term->name;
    }
?>

Or have I simplified this too much?
