I received a sample of this from a very lovely gal. It’s not normally something that would sound appealing to me. I tend to stay away from teas that sound overly spiced. This is not bad, though. The dry leaf definitely smells like bubblegum, but the steeped tea tastes like what I’d imagine an orange studded with cloves would taste like. I was hoping for a bit less spice, but it’s not terrible. The clove compliments the orange quite nicely. The cinnamon was present but more in heat than in taste, if that makes sense. The blend is very warming. If I still ate steel cut oats, this would make an incredible base for them. It’s bubblegum alright, but the Big Red variety. I don’t hate it, but it’s not something I plan to stock up on. It’s a pleasant tea to enjoy unsweetened while I finish out my Whole30 (which has turned into a Whole100) journey.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Clove, Orange
