This came as a sample with my order. It looks like they have this tea on several bases, but this one is the green. It is VERY cinnamon forward. Like those cinnamon brooms you can’ find around the holidays level of intensity, which almost makes my stomach clench just sniffing it. There is a great brunch place I went to as a kid that has a really strong cinnamon tea which was so intense it made my stomach hurt, but it was so hard to resist a free cup while you were waiting for a table. This is my body’s reaction to that scent memory.
Tasting the cup… it is very much like I steeped one of those cinnamon brooms. It’s a cinnamon essential oil type taste as opposed to a baked cinnamon or cinnamon stick taste. I’m liking it on the green base. It makes it much lighter and brighter. It’s less mucky than the black base tea at the brunch spot. The cinnamon is intense enough that there is a sweetness to it. I feel like this would be a really good tea to make a hot toddy with since it is so strong and warming. It is a little much, but I like it much better than I thought I would!
