Smells delicious, fruity and tangy, but not overly so. Beautiful fuscia colour. Yumm.

You could really smell the apple and cinnamon with this one. It also has a pretty mild taste.

I honestly thought this was Forever Nuts! Both Forever Nuts and Sleigh Ride are in the Caffeine-Free sampler set, so when I happened to look at the bottom of the tin, I was flabbergasted. The thing is, I’d even been reading the reviews for Forever Nuts and agreeing with them, so…. Clearly Sleigh Ride and Forever Nuts were Separated At Birth.

Dry, this tea smells sweet, sort of reminds me of muffins. It brews up to a .deep pink-red color and smells like fruity cinnamon. It tastes like a tart apple pie- not super tart, but just a bit. The fruity apple-cinnamon flavor is nice and subtle. I found it relaxing at the end of the day.

I’m definitely going to have to try some Forever Nuts tonight… see if they’re different at all.

It has pineapple in it. Among other fruits. By all accounts, I should hate this. But I don’t. I do have to be in the right mood for it, though. Arguably the best smelling tea I’ve ever consumed… I’d wear this as a perfume if I could. Reminds me a bit of Forever Nuts, but with a more pronounced fruity flavour.

Man this tea has a lot going on. Out of the myriad of flavors going on I mostly taste cinnamon and a roasty nuts. Has a red color to it that I assume comes from the beet.

Well I loved this tea. I am a fan of hibiscus so this one tasted like a fruity cider. I also tried this on ice, and it was a very nice iced tea.

My favorite of our Christmas teas! I’m a huge fan of hibiscus and I love that is a cross between Kanpe and Forever Nuts. I find when I steep it properly the flavour only gets better as it cools. Making sure to buy tones of this before it leaves shelves!

Delicious! Lovely, fruity flavour and works well hot or cold. Not something I’d normally buy for myself.

Not very drinkable; there’s a tartiness that I suppose could be called fruity, but there is really nothing enjoyable about it. I think it’s actually hurting my throat. Honestly I don’t think I’m going to be able to finish this mug—going down the drain.
