2 Tasting Notes
I got this from Lupicia monthly newsletter.
I was not a big fan of Rooibos because of its own scent but I started liking it a lot ever since I had Sweet Autumn(Lupicia) and Oh! Canada(David’s Tea).
Caramel & Rum did not let me down as well. The sweet caramel scent was very rich and sweet. It was very similar to Dilmah Caramel. Rum… I don’t know that part. But if anyone wants to have something sweet but without caffeine this would be perfect.

Preparation
I love pears and this tea is absolutely the best pear flavor tea ever.
Most people who think this tea is too bitter or not good at all brew this tea with too hot water. (Trust me I’ve been drinking tea over 29 years ever since I was in my mom’s belly-I’m from Korea)
You really need to brew this with low temperature water.
1 tea bag / 300ml (about 10oz, 1 1/4 C) water : 160 F or 70 C/ 2 min 30 sec
I’ve been drinking this tea for years and am too sad that Celestial Seasonings stopped making this tea. It’s one of my favorite flavored teas ever.
If you still have some tea bags, try with what I suggested. It’s really sweet and mellow. Even my husband(who thinks every tea has the same taste which is leaf flavor) loves tea. Actually it’s his favorite and only tea he drinks.
