From DAVIDsTEA

How it tastes:
A classic oolong base with a comforting cinnamon aroma.

You can say so long to your average oolong. This cinnamon-scented blend gives a comforting twist to a traditional favourite. Each sip envelops your senses with a cozy aroma radiating from the warm glow of your cup. The unique scenting process allows a more subtle fragrance of cinnamon to come through the tea leaves.

What makes it great:
• An innovative and unique scented tea from Taiwan!
• The cozy, non-overpowering cinnamon flavour is the result of its unique scenting process: cinnamon bark is mixed and heated with the tea, binding essential oils to the leaves.
• An approachable twist to a classic oolong.

Ingredients
Oolong tea, scented with cinnamon.

I’m still on a cold kick, so I decided to cold brew this one over night.

Funny enough, it tastes almost exactly how it tastes hot, its just cold. I think the base tea is exceptionally well set for cold brews, but the cinnamon scenting in this adds an extra component that I’m not sure on how I feel about this as cold.

I wish I had an idea on what the base of this actually is. I’d love to give it a try without the cinnamon scenting.

Pricey tea, so I spent some reward points. It’s not bad – the cinnamon scenting is interesting, and there’s some really nice roasted oolong flavour, but not a favourite.

Gongfu!

I love this new tea sooo much and I will eventually write a longer and more proper tasting note for it when I have more energy, but for now here’s my little snippet from IG for the session I had earlier in the week…

Not terribly unlike the process used with jasmine teas, this Taiwanese oolong is scented with heated cinnamon. The result is a truly unique oolong with just the right kiss of warming cinnamon!! This tea session is just so cozy with notes of raisins, golden toasted nuts, brown sugar, and fresh baked sweet bread and pastries. Things like cinnamon rolls, hot cross buns, and cinnamon raisin bread spring to mind with each steep & it’s just so approachable and inviting! It won’t be long before I need to restock because this has genuinely become one of those teas that I can turn to no matter what mood I’m in.

Friendly reminder that I do not numerically rate DAVIDsTEA blends as I’m currently employed there and it would be an obvious conflict of interest. Any blends you see with numerical ratings were rated prior to my employment there. These reviews are a reflection of my personal thoughts and feelings regarding the teas, and not the company’s.

I will have to look into this one

Is it available in the U.S., or Canada only?

Aren’t all their teas available in the States too?

Most of them are, but I couldn’t find this one on their website. I searched Cinnamon Oolong exactly and only got their other cinnamon teas. It didn’t appear on the oolong catalogue either.

Often times the USA will just be delayed in getting teas/teaware, they don’t tend to have many exclusives. Maybe Kelly can comment if knows if it will just be a Canadian exclusive?

Not sure when it’s gonna go up but I’m like 90% sure it’s not Canadian exclusive
