cinnamon

type: black

origin: sri lanka flavors

variety: flavored

ingredients: cinnamon spice

caffeine: strong

price level: $$$$

In the Middle Ages, having Cinnamon in one's home was a status symbol for Europe's elite. A combination of spicy Cinnamon with bright, full Ceylon black tea, having our Cinnamon Black tea in your cabinet today is equally as prestigious. Very warm and high Cinnamon flavor, with a clean, richly aromatic freshness. Spicy, crisp finish. Great blended with other teas, too! Steep at 212°F for 3 minutes

      Not as strong cinnamon as I thought it would (which is good for me because I was expecting more and not a huge cinnamon person). If you're expecting redhots, think more like cinnamon toast. Not bad, but nothing that is particularly great to me either.

    • 

      This is a mild cinnamon flavored black tea. The cinnamon in this is like cinnamon extract, not spicy but a good cinnamon flavor.

      This tea has the perfect touch of cinnamon and is perfect any time of day.

      I didn't like this one. I like cinnamon, but I guess not as a tea.

    • 

      Delicious cinnamon aroma and typical black tea fragrance from the dry leaves. 2 min @ 160. No cinnamon smell after steeping. I prefer strong cinnamon flavor so I couldn't detect any here. No bitterness or astringency but it's not Fiery Cinnamon Spice.

      This tea smells wonderful, just like a cinnamon stick. The flavor is more mild, so it's good by itself or for mixing with other teas.

    • 

      Lovely black tea with warm, spicy cinnamon flavor. I love this on cold nights when it's snowing outside! :)

    • 

      This is a more mild black tea with cinnamon flavor compared to Adagio's Fiery Cinnamon spice. The whipped cinnamon honey tastes delicious with it.

      What a fantastic and mouth-watering cinnamon black tea. I love the delicious cinnamon spice, kind of like a mild fireball flavor.

    • 

      Black teas are my favorite and the cinnamon in this one makes it extra good.

    • 

      I love the cinnamon spice tea, because it has a nice earthy but mild fireball flavor. I prefer milk and sweetener, but sometimes I like the cinnamon tea black with some sweetener and some honey to satisfy my spice and sweet tooth cravings.

    • 

      This was nice and tasty but I prefer the Fiery Cinnamon flavor myself. I brewed this one at 190 degrees for 3 minutes and added sweetener.

    • 

      I suppose any cinnamon-flavored tea would feel weak after trying Adagio's Fiery Cinnamon Spice! If you're looking for something milder with hints of cinnamon, this namesake black tea will likely please you. If you're seeking more robust, hotter flavors, upgrade to the "fiery spice" variant. Regardless, Cinnamon tea is an excellent choice when looking for creative ways to feel cozy and warm in the fall and winter.

    • 

      I like using this to add a bit of cinnamon flavor to blends. Fiery Cinnamon Spice is too strong for that; it tends to overpower other teas with its candylike taste. This doesn't.

      

      Well, it's no fiery cinnamon spice. That's a drawback for me but it might not be for you. It's got the cinnamon vibe but not the spiciness I look for when I'm drinking a cinnamon-first tea

      (Have I said the word cinnamon enough?)

      All jokes aside, it's comforting but won't give you that 'zing' that I'm looking for.

      This was a nice black tea and with sugar and cream the cinnamon was light. I wanted more cinnamon but I can appreciate the lightness of it as not everyone wants to be overpowered with it like me.

    • 

      Enjoyable. The cinnamon is mild and not overpowering, yet still flavourful and tasty tea.

    • 

      A light cinnamon-flavored tea that is comforting without a punch of spice. Steeped 2 g/8oz water at 190°F x 3 minutes. No bitterness noted from the Ceylon. Add a little sweetener and its like warm cinnamon toast in a cup. If you like a stronger cinnamon flavor, try Adagio's Fiery Cinnamon Spice.

    • 

      I'm not a big fan of cinnamon. It can easily overpower other flavors. But I was pleasantly surprised; this had just the right amount of cinnamon to give a warm flavor. You can taste it, but it's not overwhelming.

    • 

      Lovely cinnamon flavor, not too strong. Warm and sweet contrasting with the rich black tea with moderate astringency. Great balance.

      

      In the bag, VERY mild cinnamon scent. Once brewed, smells a bit like a cinnamon pastry. Very different from the fiery cinnamon spice. Much more mild, not spicy at all. I was expecting more of a punch. It's still good and tastes like cinnamon!

    • 

      The cinnamon flavor is very mild, but I like how it isn't overpowering

    • 

      Very spicy cinnamon in a base tea that is just ok for me.

    • 

      This tea has a mild cinnamon flavor, as opposed to adagio’s fiery cinnamon spice, which has a strong, hot cinnamon flavor. This tea is almost sweet on its own.

    • 

      Nice tea. Liked it with vanilla almond milk and stevia.

    • 

      This was a good cup of tea. It had a nice amount of cinnamon flavor that complemented the tea.

    • 

      Nice cinnamon tea. Not too hot or spicy so it’s perfect for me. I like a little bit of honey with it.

    • 

      I didn't taste any cinnamon. I made it strong to combine with apple cider but I tried it before mixing and I got no cinnamon. After mixing, it tasted like watered down apple cider.

    • 

      A basic, standard cinnamon tea. It's good, and I get the feeling it would be a good mixing tea.

    • 

      Strong black tea base so I use this with my chais to stretch the teas out but also add that cinnamon flavor

    • 

      Sorry but I dont like it. I guess I should havent tried in the beginning bc Im not a fan of cinnamon

    • 

      THis one is excellent to blend with other teas but on its own, very very strong! Smooth though

    • 

      I got this as a free sample and it is STRONG! They do not skip on the real cinnamon here. Is a bit much for me, I like to mix it with something milder.

    • 

      this is a basic cinnmaon tea, its ok but not worth the time

    • 

      This is a good tea. I love the cinnamon taste but it left my tongue wanting more. It is a go to favorite of mine though.

    • 

      A delicious and aromatic tea, taken well with a little milk and sugar

    • 

      It’s a bit subtle for brewing it the way Adagio instructed - I may try steeping it a bit longer or adding almond milk next time. Still a yummy spice tea. 😊

      

      This is a very good mild cinnamon tea. The black tea notes are stronger than the cinnamon so the tea ends up more a relaxing black tea with strong cinnamon notes instead of the spicy hot cinnamon teas where you can’t taste the black tea.

    • 

      This is one of my favorite teas to drink daily. I love the obvious flavor of cinnamon. I steep it longer than recommended for a stronger tea, but steeping at the recommended time is still an excellent tea if you like cinnamon.
