This was one of the first blends that got me into tea to begin with, and I still enjoy it greatly. It’s a very mellow pumpkin spice blend while still having a very identifiable flavor profile. It takes oat milk very well, and I enjoy that I can have it any time because it’s a rooibos. Thankfully I still have a tin of the Harney loose leaf.
Honestly I was shocked that I even still had this – I stopped shopping at TJ’s early on in the pandemic so this has got to be at least three years old. I’ve switched over to Harney’s Pumpkin Spice Rooibos (which I’m pretty sure is the same tea that TJ’s sells). So when I went to go make my first PSL of the season, I wasn’t expecting to have a bonus sipdown opportunity.
It’s the same as Harney’s? I love the TJ one but didn’t love the Harney one, weird!
I can’t prove it’s the same but I’m pretty sure it’s the same! Weirdly, the Harney loose leaf and sachet versions taste different to me, though they almost certainly are not. My best guess is that it’s a question of the amount of leaf used – I have a habit of overleafing.
