The black tea base has notes of hickory smoked bacon, so you’ll either love it or leave it. With a generous portion of ginger, this exciting blend becomes warming, spicy, & feels good on your throat. Because ginger is sought out for it’s health benefits, we love adding it to blends like Cold Buster & Climber’s High. Paired here with a smokey black tea, it brings to life a powerful new flavor combination: sharp & smooth, stimulating & comforting, a new adventure in a single cup.

A few months ago Sil, Cavocorax, & I split an order from the Tea Spot. We each got tins of Bolder Breakfast, shared a few things, & got several sample sizes of things. Katie, from The Tea Spot, also sent me a few samples to try, including this one.
I’m not always a fan of smokey teas. The first couple of times I tried a lapsang tea it freaked me out, LOL. However, I’ve developed more of a liking for them. On the other hand, I absolutely love ginger always!
I have actually fantasized about a blend that would be lapsang, ginger, & vanilla, & have experimented with it for awhile occasionally. So I wanted to sample this.
During the sip the Lapsang was there, but I didn’t taste the ginger, but after a few sips it began to build, bringing a warmth to my mouth, my sinuses, & my belly. This is a tasty, warming blend that will be especially nice on a cold winter’s night. I added a little stevia, & the sweetness really brings out a caramel-like flavor that really enhances the smoke & ginger. Yum!
Thanks for the sample Katie!
Sipdown! Terri sent this my way and i figured today was a good day to try this one. I need a little kick to my afternoon. Sadly, the ginger in this one isn’t present enough. It does build while you drink this, which is nice but i miss the ginger from the first sips. I’d also like this to be slightly less smokey. I think that would balance the ginger a little better. It just means that i might need to try and blend my own sometime in the future :) I did like this though, so thanks for sharing terri!
Tea of the morning.
I can’t believe I’ve only drunk this once before. Can that possibly be true? Maybe, if I am honest. How upsetting!
Well, a sturdy mug of this was the way to go today, as its rainy out there, and something smokey and spicy is just the ticket.
I am glad I trusted my instincts for a shorter steeping time today. This is good, with a warm sweetness from the ginger at the edge of the lapsang smoke, but I think too long a brew time would render it almost undrinkable. So I had a short steep (around 3 1/2 minutes) and enjoyed my cup very much.
Huh this one sounds interesting
I’ll save some for your next box! :)
So glad you enjoyed it! Cheers :)
