This is kinda like mild caramel, both in flavour and scent. Don’t really get any of the toffee popcorn, but maybe I should drink it with Doctor Who.

I decided that David’s Birthday Cake needed some berry flavour, so I added this. It smells so nice like strawberry. The flavour is creamy berry. Goes very well with the other tea, it’s like having strawberry milkshake cake.

Peaches for all my rabbits, please. The strongest flavour/ scent I get from this is the peach. While I like peaches, I was expecting something different.

This smells like the Lemon Lime Tart (except with ginger instead of cream). Which is to say…. so very good. The ginger comes out well in the flavour too (with a bit of fruitiness). And this would be good iced.

Tried this again with cinnamon chips from NMTC. I prefer my yams with cinnamon, so maybe that’s what was missing before. Better with a little bit of spice. Still smells really nice. (With added cinnamon- 79)

This smells really good… mostly like lemon, but I get hints of other fruit. The flavour is lemony with a bit of spice. I kinda want to try this cold with lemonade now.

This smells like spicy chocolate. The flavour is like a mild Mexican hot chocolate. Good, but I’d prefer cinnamon chocolate.

I still can’t seem to find a cinnamon tea I like. This one is alright, and the pop rocks are interesting. Otherwise, I prefer cinnamon as a spice.

I might have brewed this too long, as it was stronger than I would have liked. The flavour is kinda creamy chocolate. It really does taste a bit like malted milk balls. (Wonder how it is with the chocolate strawberry).

I really like yams. Really, really a lot. This smells nicely like yams, but tastes more like spices and marshmallows. Decent, but not what I was hoping for.
