I love pumpkins and pumpkin pie, but I can only take so much in the way of spices. That’s fine for dessert, but not always great for tea; I need pumpkin pie tea to taste like pie, not chai. Fortunately, this one doesn’t disappoint! The cinnamon, clove, and so on are strong, but they don’t overwhelm the pumpkin or even the tea itself.

This is very much a dessert tea and also very much reminds me of fall; I’m looking forward to curl up with it and a book on a cold day. The pumpkin sprinkles give it a nice little sweetness on its own, but I prefer the flavor with a bit of brown sugar (and even if you’re a artificial sweetener sort of person, go with real sugar for this one. Splenda kills it). Add some pumpkin creamer and you’ve got yourself a glorious pumpkin latte!

Also worth mentioning is that this can be steeped twice nicely; the second steeping tastes simpler, for lack of a better word.

Ah, I might have found the key to making this as tasty as possible: using more than you typically would. I put in a bit of extra “leaf” and two of the large flower sprinkles got in instead of one, and it’s much easier to taste the berries and sweetness!

Dry, this one has a ton of character. The scent is distinctly fruity and even a bit sugary, and the dried fruits and petals that flavor it are abundant. They don’t hide the rooibos, either, and the scents mix together harmoniously. It definitely reminds me of spring!

Drinking it, though, I’m disappointed by each sip. It’s not that it’s a bad tea, per se, just that the scent is so lovely that it gives me extremely high expectations. The flavor is primarily rooibos; the berries and rose are still there, but I have to search for them.

One thing I enjoy is the adorable sprinkles that are part of this blend, which give it a slight sweetness. With some rooibos, I find that honey is necessary to balance out the “earthy” taste — not so for this one!

If the scent of this rooibos was a perfume, I would wear it constantly.

Tried this at a tea shop today, and it was perfect. It smelled like a candle and tasted delicious. I wish it wasn’t a black tea, because that almost overpowers the pumpkin flavor..but it’s still great!

I love any kind of tea with cute little additions like the sprinkles in this tea. :) Oh, and thanks to JoeCool (Nichole) for sharing some of her stash! I may not have been as nice as this tea is delicious! A liquid cake in a cup, that’s what this tastes like. Strong vanilla/caramel flavor. Sweet without sweetener (due to the sprinkles, no doubt). Bold black tea. This is cheering up my mood, which I needed desperately. Of all the “cake” teas I’ve tried, this sets the bar high – and is my fave so far.

Thanks again, JoeCool (Nichole)! :)

I just re-read Nichole’s note about them no longer offering this one…too bad…I would have ordered some…sigh…

This is my 2nd infusion and it’s still quite minty – but not as minty as the first – but more chewy-black tea taste is popping thru.

Still DELISH!

I’ve asked Marsha a bit ago and she said Peppermint Bark will be around again later this year. Yeah!!

But she is offering her St Pattys Day (which has little shamrocks in it-so cute), Valentine (Marhsa said her Read My Lips blend is similar to Peppermint Bark) , and Mardi Gras blends right now and they all look amazing and awesome! (I’m in no way affiliated with Tea for All Reasons, just think their tea is one of the best out there!)

I remember the St. Patty’s Day one from a year or two ago and remember really liking that one too!!!

A Mardi Gras blend?! And St. Patty’s Day blend?! I’m so in! (my maiden name is Fitzpatrick, so St. Patty’s Day was a family holiday for us!)

I can’t help but give this a 100 like the two tea lovers before me! Thanks to Nichole…I was able to try this lovable minty goodness! The mint is strong but there is a great smoothness – I will chalk that up to the vanilla Nichole mentioned. The black tea itself is quite strong and chewy, too! This is all-around mint awesomeness! I can’t argue at all. I’m going to try multiple infusions of this because I noticed the candy canes have not fully diminished. YAY for me, eh!?

I really REALLY like this one! I will probably have to look into buy some.

WOW! What a treat!
nom nom nom.

Very dessert-like!
If you like mint…try this!

New must-have for me! Thanks Nichole for sharing some from your stash; I would be too greedy to part with any of this!

I got excited when I saw the pieces of what appeared to be candy canes, only to see they were actually little candy canes! So cute!

The tea smells AMAZING from the bag; in fact I left it open accidentally on my desk and a coworker assumed I had chocolate cake in the vicinity!

From the first sip to the last this tea is strong in mint. I must acquire a full-size bag of this for year round consumption! :)

Just like a birthday party in my cup all for me! Love it! First time I steeped it, not sure where I went wrong b/c I’m loving it now. Very rich, smooth, and creamy. The Vanilla is shining thru and I’m not going to lie, I really enjoy the little candy sprinkles . .Too Cute!

My stash on this one is getting low. . . .Ahh!! Time for a re-order I think.

So this one is ok. Not sure if I would pick up again or not. The vanilla is there but its light, almost like it needs more vanilla to kick up the flavor a bit. . .but its a nice way to keep your Monday going. . . .
