      Good sweet cinnamon taste. I think they changed the name from Fiery Cinnamon to Sweet Cinnamon. It is only 4 stars out of 5 because the tea does have a bit of a lingering aftertaste to it.

    • 

      A wonderful cinnamon tea! This tea is like those small red-hot candies. It's smooth and good mixed with chocolate teas. I like to add some creamer to this.

    • 

      I love cinnamon and this is a true cinnamon tea with a little bit of black tea. This tastes great plain or mixed with other teas.

    • 

      I don't really love it, but it's exactly what it promised. Tastes just like Red Hots or any of those hot cinnamon candies from when we were kids. The cloves are nice, because otherwise it's pretty much just ground hot cinnamon and tea in water. If you love Red Hots and want something spiced but not quite a masala chai, this is for you.

      You have to try this special ball of delicious Cinnamon flavor tea. I like this with milk and or sweetener, but adagios cinnamon honey is amazing with this tea.

    • 

      I love cinnamon and this has a very strong cinnamon fragrance. Steeped 3 min @ 160 because I don't like the bitterness of black tea. No need to worry, all I taste is sweet cinnamon deliciousness. No astringency noted on the second steep either. Great tea if you love cinnamon.

      Good cinnamon flavor. I love most cinnamon teas and this didn't disappoint! I brewed this tea hot and let it cool. It was great cold! Will try it hot when the weather cools.

      This is one of my favorite tea from adagio. Cinnamon spice hits you right off the bat. Nice smooth tea. Reminds me of Cinnamon red hot candy. Excellent choice.

    • 

      The only downside to this tea is the mess it makes in my tea pot -- but it's worth it!! This tea smells and tastes great!! Makes my home office smell amazing when I brew a pot of this tea!! Lovely cinnamon taste and aroma. Mmmmm! Lovely hot...or cold-brewed!

    • 

      A very strong cinnamon flavor and I got a bright red tea. It can be a bit overpowering, but I like it, especially iced. Great for when you're going for something unusual!

    • 

      The cinnamon is overpowering in this tea for my tastes and leaves a fine powder in the water that's unpleasant to drink. If there was less mess and cinnamon dust perhaps it would mix well with another tea

    • 

      Reminds me of Red Hots. A tasty cup, but not something that I really want all that often. I really want a more natural cinnamon taste than a candylike one.

    • 

      This is a light and tasty cinnamon tea. The cinnamon is truly full of heat and yet the tea itself has a lightness to it that doesn’t overwhelm the palate. I recommend this! I steep at 200 degrees for 4 minutes.

    • 

      Disappointed with this blend, just didn't have much oomph. Will stick with the H&S version.

    • 

      Tastes like drinking red hots candy, which I love. Full of long lasting flavor. One of my new fave teas!

    • 

      I got this with my rewards point, I only got the sample size. Wow I wish I had gotten the larger size. It was a nice hot cinnamon scoot flavor. Definitely tasted like red hot candies. And I loved it.

      FAMILY FAVORITE! Fabulous on a cold day. Warms the body through and through.

    • 

      The deliciously strong cinnamon aroma steeps into an assertive, spicy cinnamon tea. Withstands a second steep with mild cinnamon notes. (190°F x 3 min)

    • MM

      

      Tastes like an Atomic Fireball, which is good when I want something candylike. Definitely not an everyday tea.

    • 

      Cinnamon red hot candies are my jam, and this tea comes close. But sorry Adagio, I think Harney and Sons has you beat! Brew this for a bit longer than normal to fully release the fire. All in all this is a delicious blend, just brew in a tea bag to avoid all the cinnamon dust.

      I got a free sample on my Adagio order and boy am I happy about that. This tea is delicious and hits the spot for that cinnamon craving. It is sweet on it's own with a subtle sweetness. I do love cinnamon generally so this tea is a real treat.

      I LOVE this tea! If you like cinnamon, you will love this. it's actually more sweet than "fiery" but it does pack a punch of cinnamon flavor.

    • 

      A bit too much cinnamon, chokes out the other flavors. Decent tea and if you are a cinnamon fan this is definitely one for you.

    • 

      The scent of this tea was very strong, but the cinnamon flavor was very weak once brewed. I was a little disappointed and will stick with other brands when buying cinnamon tea.

    • 

      lots of high reviews for cinnamon and health - and yummy flavor too!

    • 

      Flavor was powerful cinnamon as expected, but wow, this was dusty. I had a ring of ground cinnamon on the edge of my cup when I pulled out the steeping cup, and then another pile at the bottom when I had finished. Flavor was nicely sweet without sugar, but the texture of the whole cup was grainy from the ground cinnamon.

    • 

      This is certainly firery and spicey tea. It is really good on a snowy day but make sure no to oversteep it or it'll be way too spicy

      Absolutely delicious. Tastes like apple cider minus the cider. Love it!

    • 

      Not bad, but definitely not something I’d drink all the time.

    • 

      So much cinnamon in this tea!! I added sugar, but ended up preferring it without. It's so spicy and warm and delicious! I will definitely buy this one.

    • 

      Very heavily cinnamon. I don't get any of the orange or clove, just cinnamon. If that's what you're in the market for get it. If you want something a little more complex, this isn't it.

      I really enjoyed this tea in the wee hours of the morning when the sun had yet to rise as I went to work. The air was cold but this tea was bracing enough to keep me comfortable. Absolutely delicious.

    • 

      Cinnamon is not always my favorite flavor because I find it can easily be overpowering. I was wary of this tea when I first opened my CommuniTea packet & was greeted by a puff of cinnamon powder. The smell of the dry tea leaned very 'red hots' which I suspect is the fault of the cinnamon flavorant, not the real cinnamon.

      With cinnamon powder shedding everywhere, even managing to escape my cotton tea bag, I steeped at 190F for 4min. I added sugar and cream and ended up with a nice cup of tea. The sugar and cream ensured that the end result wouldn't be hot enough to clean out my sinuses, but just spicy enough to wake me up and put a lil pep in m step. I reserved half of the sample to use in an eggnog latte later on.

      I attempted a second steep at 200F(boil) for 10min and got a very week, lightly cinnamon water. Wouldn't recommend for more than one steep.

    • 

      I like cinnamon, but that's all I really tasted here. Like the rinse water from cleaning a spice jar at work, or a chai without chai. It's not bad per say, but not something I'd order after trying it.

      Fair warning- the cinnamon flavor is STRONG. Brew with caution!

      This tea has a strong cinnamon spice flavor. I enjoyed this tea but it was a little too strong for me.

    • 

      Very strong. I like to take a little bit of it and add it to some of my other teas. It works well for that.

      If you're looking for cinnamon... look no further! You've found out! Simply delicious and full of cinnamon spice!

      INCREDIBLE! I'm buying my second big bag of Fiery Cinnamon!!! If you like cinnamon, this one is awesome!

    • 

      This one's a little too strong for me but I can see why some like it!

    • 

      Accurately described, this "fiery" tea will sizzle on your tongue and set your taste buds buzzing. It's a highly concentrated, spicy tea with 110% emphasis on the cinnamon sensation. No flowery or fruity accents here. I detract a single star because while the initial flavor kicks into high gear, the lingering taste is a bit thin, as though the strongest flavors of this tea literally zip across your taste buds. Even so, few Adagio teas capture autumn's most stereotypical aura so well.

    • 

      I am a huge cinnamon fan and when I ordered this tea I was super excited and anxiously waiting for it to arrive. I was expecting a super cinnamony, spicy tasting tea. It was a nice tea but the spice didn't pop as I'd expected it to. I do recommend it but perhaps the name should be something different.

      My Favorite tea hands down. The cinnamon flavor is good both hot and iced. It can also be used to add flavor to other teas like Irish Breakfast.
