Cinnamon Black

When you first open this tea the intense smell of cinnamon hits you like a wall. It smells like a fireball candy. Before brewing I was afraid that the cinnamon would be overwhelming, but when drinking it is the perfect amount of cinnamon. If you’re in the mood for a nice breakfast black, with a little added spice then this is the perfect tea for you

In short, it did deceive me in how it smelled before I brewed it. I did like it though. I think This tea might be good for next time I make homemade chai.

I review this tea in grater detail in my blog (http://whethertothink.blogspot.com/2011/11/cinnamon-black-tea.html) if any one cares to look.

I like Cinnamon as a spice, but I also feel it has it’s place in the Culinary World. It’s often overused and added when not needed. I tend to stray away from anything that’s cinnamon flavored, because they tend to use the wrong variety.
This tea I really enjoy and has a pleasing cinnamon taste without all that pungency. The type sometimes used reminds me of a craft store during the Holidays-not this tea. I won’t drink it all the time, but when I’m in the mood for a spice, without complication, I’ll go for this Tea.
Of course, anyone who enjoys cinnamon will probably really like it

smells like red hots, but thankfully doesn’t taste that strong.
