Dry leaf smell – cinnamon cookies. There is no other way to describe this. This is cinnamon cookies or cinnamon coffee cake straight up.
Steeped, it’s a beautiful red-gold. The cinnamon has abated a bit and the almond comes out. It smells a bit like a rooibos, to be honest. I added milk and a bit of sugar, which brought out the cookie flavor of the tea. It’s very creamy and very smooth, and definitely something for dessert!

Want!
I definitely didn’t expect to like it as much as I do!
I definitely didn’t like this as much as the almond biscotti, which this is supposed to be a replacement for (or so said the clerk at my final trip to Teavana). It also had a weird aftertaste that I really did not enjoy.
I never tried the almond biscotti, but there’s definitely a rosy aftertaste to this (which I personally like, but then, I like rose/black mixes).
I actually love this one and disliked almond biscotti, but I love rose teas. That and I think this one actually tastes like almond whereas I didn’t really get that from almond biscotti (definitely snickerdoodles instead).
