This was a sipsby selection, and on the surface is very much my vibe – a dessert tea with a little spice. They sent it in teabags, and of the four I drank, two had a solid spice component, one had a noticeable but tame spice, and one had almost no spice at all.
Without the spice, it’s still fine for a dessert! I like a little chocolate tea, and this sweetness makes sense because it’s very much a s’more. The inconsistency just makes it hard to take this tea from a like to a love.

Flavors: Chocolate, Cinnamon, Sweet

College instructor, mom of 2, and general homebody in California.

Great at buying tea, good at drinking tea, bad at timely reviews. Drawn to fruit, floral, spice, smoke, and flavored teas in general; prefer those that stand well without milk or sweetener. Black is fine, green is better, and red rooibos is trash.

I aim to rate when I finish a package or a complete sipdown, except in advent season.

My ratings are for me, so I don’t accidentally buy something that sounds amazing but I’ve already tried and disliked. I struggle a bit with wanting to be “fair” to a tea that other people would probably like, but then my system won’t work!

90-100 A: loved it; would make this a permanent member of my stash
80-89 B: tasty; would pick it up again
70-79 C: good; could grab with a good deal or to try in a different style
60-69 D: okay; would keep in a set but probably would not repurchase on its own
1-59 F: various shades of bad; would not purchase; closer to 1 means may not even drink again if offered.
