I can smell a ton of spices when sniffing my cup, but they aren’t coming through with the same strength in the sip, which I’m glad for because it would be a little overwhelming. On the sip I get an earthy background with syrup notes and the sweetness of cinnamon. The spices come back in on the aftertaste. After finishing a plate of what was likely the most bland pancakes I have ever made, this tea is a welcome relief to my taste buds. I decided that a little maple syrup was the perfect sweetener for this cup and it works out perfectly! It heightens all the flavors and brings out the high syrup notes that ride the entire sip. I still can’t tell if I’m picking up on actual pumpkin flavors or just the spices that hint at it, but that doesn’t make this cup any less enjoyable.

My name is Dustin and I like tea.

I’m an added flavor kind of tea fan, but have had a growing appreciation for plain. I want my tea to remind me of cookies and cakes with coconut and almond slices with a hint of chocolate drizzled on top. I want dancing ponies and flying monkeys shooting off fireworks! And no hibiscus. Hibiscus is the devil.
