Great, tasty blend. I like this one a lot. I could taste the gingerbread. Yummy! I loved this with milk and sugar. I couldn’t taste the apple in this blend, but there was a hint of fruit in this blend.

Vanilla cake. Thats the first thing I thought. This is a very sweet tea. I added sugar and milk, which made this taste creamier. Yummy! Great dessert tea. I have such a sweet tooth, and this tea hits the spot. Warm and tasty. I love it!

Also one of my absolute favorite teas. I love the ability of having something sweet but not feeling guilty about it. This one has made it to my regular rotation. Although, I didn’t get the “vanilla cake” feeling for me it was more a smooth creamy caramel and cream candy. YUMMY!!!

I have never tried pomegranate, so I can’t say for sure if I’ve tasted it in this tea. This tea is good nonetheless. Very slightly and mildly fruity. It tasted more like a basic black tea. I added milk and sugar. An alright blend.

Chocolate and peach. The scent is very peachy. Almost artificial. I was drinking this without sugar, but I needed to add it. It didn’t seem to help much though. Unfortunately, this wasn’t one of my favorites. Tasty but something seemed off about it.

Ham. Bacon. Pork. Those were the first things I thought when I smelled and tasted this.

Savory and smokey. The calendula flowers are large and whole. I was very surprised. Pretty and yellow. There were blue cornflowers in there as well. A colorful, natural tea. I think I have to get used to this tea though. I am not used to drinking savory, smokey teas. Especially not ones that smell like ham to me. Wow. Interesting flavor. I have a large tin of this. I hope I eventually fall in love with this.

A nice solid oolong tea. I couldn’t discern the flavors that much. Maybe it is because the blend has been exposed to air and has been in the box for a long time. I would have liked to taste the grapefruit. The vanilla and almond were slightly discernable. Good overall.

This was a nice, solid blend. Every part was well balanced. It tasted like a nice black tea with hints of cinnamon. It was nice and mellow. Not bitter. I don’t like bitter teas! I added a little sugar to it. Good tea overall.

The dry leaf smelled of spices… Maasala chai is what came to mind. Once I steeped it, it was so delicious! I added milk and sugar, and the flavors were outstanding! This makes it in my top 5 favorite signature blends! It is a nice cozy tea. Great for winter. It does remind me of Halloween as there is a slight apple flavor to it, but I mostly tasted the spices and cinnamon. I love chai, and when I buy a tin of this, I’ll try to make it on the stove.

DELICIOUS!!! I used the leaves 4 times!

Kinda surprised they didn’t add pumpkin to it. Sounds good! Glad the apple came thru:)

I am so glad you enjoyed my creation and I specifically didn’t include pumpkin because I wanted to make this tea unique from other Halloween blends that mostly included pumpkin.

drank Peppermint by Adagio Teas

I bought a huge lb bag of this! I love peppermint. It tastes so fresh! It is not artificial at all… especially compared to store bought peppermint teabags and other peppermint blends. The smell is intoxicating. I feel so refreshed.

I also took some vanilla rooibos and added it! Delicious!! Absolutely delicious!
