I think this is the tea I’m drinking. Thank you to whoever sent it to me! It’s a nice tea. Light spice flavor with a touch of sweetness. There really isn’t anything about this tea that stands out to me. It’s good but I don’t think I’d ever order it.

I agree that this was somewhat dissapointing. It’s a spicy black tea that is just not as flavorful in the cup as it smells in the bag. Upton’s New England Harvest blend is a much better choice for a spicy, flavored black tea.

Mmmm. Despite Christmas being over I decided to open this sample today and boy is it nice. The tea was not as spicy as the leaves smelled, but there was still plenty to it. The sweetness was a little more subtle; I decided to add a bit of sugar after a few sips and that REALLY amped up the tastiness for me.

Not bad, just not great. A bit high in tannin, but a splash of milk smooths it out. Spicy but not overly so. Not picking up either the orange or almond notes.
