This is actual a travel staple for me. The strong vanilla and cinnamon notes tame bad water taste on the road. So for vanilla tea week I broke out a box with the happy lemur looking at me while drinking his tea I just had to cheer up. Its foggy out and I can feel the warm cinnamon opening my eyes and lifting the fog. The black on this tea is a bit harsh something I like in a wake up morning tea. The vanilla is strong in the scent and mixes on the tongue with the cinnamon. Adding some honey enhances the vanilla sweetness. I think its great for a bagged tea and for the price! Also you can’t really over steep, I’ve accidentally left it over 10 minutes with no additional bitterness.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Vanilla

yes I stock up and store it sealed up in plastic boxes in a cool spot so I have enough to make it through the year. I just went shopping and found a new TJ’s tea coconut lemongrass green. I’m not sure if that’s something I’d like but the price was right so its hopped into the cart
ugh, this is my favorite tea! it’s just so delicious, i can’t get over it. sometimes i get strong butterscotch, other times cinnamon oatmeal raisin cookie. i was devastated to know it was only seasonal so i searched far and wide to find it at other stores.
Rosehips- you’re in luck! this tea is the exact same thing as Celestial Seasonings’ Nutcracker Sweet, which is available year round! if u can’t find it in stores, try the CS website :)
*i’m 99.9% sure it is the same tea, believe me, i have several boxes of each and there’s no difference!
I love this one. I wish it was available year round.
