What a lovely fall tea! There is a wonderful balance between the pear, the cinnamon, and the base tea. The pear flavor is poached, juicy and sweet. I’m impressed by how well it stands up to the cinnamon, which has a good flavor but no heat. The lack of heat is a good thing. I also like that while the cinnamon is present throughout the sip it never overpowers the other flavors. The base tea is strong, but there’s no bitterness or dryness. It’s really nice , and it carries the pear and cinnamon flavors well.
I’m glad I picked this one up. The next time I have it I may add a little honey to my cup to make it a full blown dessert tea. I’m thinking that will happen sooner rather than later.

this sounds great! I haven’t tried pear tea yet, but it sounds great, especially with cinnamon… do you recommend any decaf pear-cinnamon tisanes or teas?

If you like rooibos you might want to check out Design-a-Tea. You can choose your base tea (rooibos is the only caffeine free option) and then your flavors. I requested a Pear Spice tea from them that was pretty tasty, but I used their black tea base.
