From 52teas

This Tea was Crafted for the December Box for Amoda Teas!

Available in VERY limited quantities!

This tea is one I crafted for Amoda Tea. It is SO good! Delicious, warmly spiced gingerbread notes with sweet, slightly tangy apple flavor with a honey-sweet, slightly nutty honeybush base – a perfect blend to cozy up any time of the day.

This blend begins with our organic, naturally caffeine-free honeybush & combined it a little bit of rooibos – just enough to round out the flavor. Then I added a bunch of freeze-dried apples, gingerbread spices (ginger root, cinnamon, cloves & nutmeg) & just a hint of gingerbread essence to give the blend a warm, wonderful, freshly-baked quality.

This one is available in very limited quantities & because it was crafted for Amoda as an exclusive blend, it will not be reblended again (unless Amoda requests it). Grab it while you can! Yes, it’s organic, VEGAN, gluten-free, caffeine-free & allergen free!

organic ingredients: honeybush, rooibos, apples, ginger root, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg & natural flavors

This is a little peppery due to the honeybush but has a sweet applesauce vibe to it as well. It’s fine but there are better honeybush options at 52 Teas.

This one is on the website now, but there are very limited quantities of it remaining. I love this blend – I realized that I consumed all of my stash (save for one serving) before I managed to get it on the website (I really thought I had already added this one) – but apparently I was writing tasting notes in my head and not on Steepster. Fortunately, I did have just enough to snap a photo of the tea & then enjoy my last cuppa.

I love the way the apple & the gingerbread play in this. I don’t taste much from the honeybush or rooibos – what they do contribute to the taste melds with the gingerbread notes and it plays off as a mildly nutty, honey-ish taste to enhance the molasses-y brown sugar notes from the gingerbread. The spices are mild but they play to a warm spice set for the gingerbread. Every few sips, my palate notices more apple than gingerbread, so it comes off as a warm apple cider taste. Really nice.

(52teas (Anne) 2022: 65)

This smells better brewed up than it did right out of the packet. It’s actually a fairly nice, very lightly gingery spiced apple flavour – it does remind me both of apple cider and gingerbread. Not my favourite flavour combination, but I’m pretty sure I’m enjoying it more than I did the first time I tried it (and more than I had expected to). Upping rating from 64 to 74.

Finished this one off today. Brewed it better this time so it was a lot more apple gingerbread than the first time which was basically honeybush. Not a favourite for me, but was a fun tea to try.

How did you brew it?! Since I am having the same issue and my cup is basically just honeybush.

Sil

Haha like I remember from 11 months ago. I’d try a very low low temp

Spoiler alert for those who don’t want to know anything about the 52Teas included in Amoda’s caffeine free box!

What a delightful blend! I still have not tried all the flavours but I do love this one a lot. It has some great rooibos and honeybush notes, lots of warm winter spices, and some wonderful dried apple notes (sweet, dried fruit, apple). Totally delicious and a great cup on yet another rainy day (three in a row now!)
