      This is enjoyable, though I probably wouldn't purchase again simply because there are others that I think are better. It's kind of a malty orange and clove tea, but the spices are fairly weak other than the orange and clove flavor. I might recommend not drinking this one plain. It's a good base to punch up with cinnamon and other spices you enjoy.

      This tea has a warming quality to it. The basic black tea from this company is always good and this one does well as a tea for a winter day with some milk and sugar. My only complaint is that, as others have said, it is a bit bland. The spices aren't nearly as strong as the smell. It's a little boring to drink it straight for me.

      Overall, it's good, but I would not get again. The aroma smells "old" with the spices like they've been sitting in an old cupboard for years. The taste, however, is quite different from the experience of the aroma. It is sweet, bright, then deep. Well-balanced. For a spice tea, it is not overly spicy or too sweet.

      A very mild tea. I was expecting something a little spicier, but it's still enjoyable. Warming and gentle, it's what I'd call a grandma tea.

      While nothing extraordinary, this is still a nice tea. The spice in the tea is very mild, which I like.

      This tea is more fruity and almond-flavored than it is spiced, like a fruitcake!

      Unfortunately this tea tastes very weak to me. I used it up by turning it into chai (brewing it with extra spices).
