I liked it! Was nervous to try this one after reading the reviews. For what you’re expecting (based on the name and dry/steeped smell) it’s not good at all lol. All I can taste is licorice and hot spices. Not what I was hoping for, but I really like licorice/spicyness so I still enjoy it. It’s a really beautiful orange color when steeped and I got two decent steeps out of one perfect spoonful in a large mug. Tried the second steep with a bit of milk (nice) and it didn’t bring any cake-like flavours out.
