Sipping this now and I taste absolutely no lemon or caramel. Nothing but a pretty average Darjeeling.

I opened the package and was met with a beautiful orangey honey aroma. I was super excited to brew up this cup after my dumped cup of Fireside Mocha. Unfortunately, this is another no for me. I don’t get any orange or honey notes, but instead an odd herbal/bitter flavor.

I found this tea pretty gross, and had to dump it after just a couple sips. The apples create an extremely odd flavor profile against the strong coffee notes. It is also sickeningly sweet, and was overly my main issue. A solid nope for me.

I love savory tea blends, so I was really excited to try this. Unfortunately, it’s oddly sickeningly sweet, with just a spicy aftertaste. The cloying sweetness combined with the spiciness is pretty unappetizing.

So, this is basically a spiced orange Forever Nuts. It’s pretty okay, but borders on an almost bubblegum-like medicinal flavor. It’s very heavy on the clove to my palate, and after a couple sips I got pretty sick of it. I’m glad I tried it, but I definitely don’t think I need to purchase anymore.

Yum! I generally hate rooibos, but I really love this blend. The flavor in the mouth is more of a dingy lemon, but as you start to swallow, there’s a distinctly ‘cakey’ note to it. It’s very much like a lemon cupcake, which was a pleasant surprise.

Thanks to AJRimmer for this one!
I didn’t read the ingredients and added cream, and it curdled. Boo. I drank it anyway, though. Really enjoyed the cup. I could definitely taste the cherry and cocoa notes pretty equally. The more I sipped the more I actually enjoyed it. Very pleasant!
