Sample cube 12/18
This one definitely smells like an autumn drink—loaded with cinnamon and spice, and a whiff of orange. There were plenty of orange peel pieces in the sachet as well. The flavor of this tea is in-your-face cinnamon. There’s definitely a spicy kick, and most of all a surprising, intense sweetness that was like cinnamon candies had been dissolved in it. The presence of the black tea itself is fairly weak, probably deliberately chosen to not overwhelm the other flavors, and the brew is a lighter color than the typical black tea. Overall, this is a tea that makes it feel like it’s October or November already. It might not be everyone’s cup of tea (haha) due to the spice and sweetness. I’m glad I saved this one for a cloudy morning…
