I purchased a box of tea bags as a treat on Cyber Monday. Before I got it, I wasn’t sure if I will like it from the flavors descriptions: orange, vanilla, orange zest, and Christmas spices. I don’t mind hints of clove, but don’t like it when it gets overpowering. I remained skeptical up to the moment I pulled pulled the cellophane from the box and gave it a whiff.

First impressions include warm aromas, doesn’t come across as too spicy. The first steep delivered milder flavors than I expected. The orange comes through, along with the spices. The vanilla doesn’t stand out, but it’s there in the background, marrying the orange and spice. I found the flavors to better developed in the second steeping.

Overall, I think I enjoy this tea. Sipping it while working, the warm aromas becomes a pleasant distraction. One thing I found though was the slight tannic feel in the mouth (almost unnoticeable), but only because I leave my teabag in the cup all the way.

I enjoy this tea, with its delicate flavors and sweet aromas. This is a Spring tea for me, and I carry a mug around and smell rose bouquets all day.

Overall, a mellow tea for a relaxing Saturday afternoon. If you like cantaloupes, this is the tea for you.

Definitely the best Earl Grey I’ve in my life, and leaves behind a warm glowy feeling every time.

Lovely chocolate aroma with mellow caramel notes towards the end. Excellent tea for a cold rainy morning.
