Method: 1.5 tsp, 208 degrees, 8 oz, 5 min, French Press
Dry Aroma: The elderberries are center stage. I don’t even smell any cinnamon, which surprised me.
Brewing Aroma: Now there’s the cinnamon, but the elderberries are gone
Flavor: Cinnamon is the most obvious flavor. I don’t taste the elderberries outright, but the tea has a light fruity flavor and a sweetness that I suspect could be from the berries. I didn’t add anything to this one, and it was still quite sweet. I just wish I had realized it was not caffeinated when I picked it this AM. :)

It’s an interesting one. I’m not huge on cinnamon, but I didn’t find this one to be overwhelming. Sometimes the cinnamon just tap dances all over your face. It’s a bit much!
But this was mild and smooth. I think I’ll enjoy it even more in the cooler months. I was thinking it might even make a good cold brew. Ever try it like that?
Actually no, cause I had only a sample, and well it’s all gone now…will be part of next order in july. But I can totally see how it would make an excellent cold brew!

I found my favourite cinnamon tea in this one :-)
