In my opinion this is the best among Bigelow's flavored teas, although my favorite from Bigelow is one of their herbals--sweet dreams.

It's funny, I tend not to like orange spice teas, but I like this one. It's balanced: none of the aromas overpower the others. There's a nice amount of strength and bitterness, but it's not too much.

If you're given the option of Bigelow's various tea bags, this is always a good choice. And it might inspire you to make a similar blend on your own using loose black tea, orange rind, and spices!

It has a nice taste. It isn't too sweet or bitter.

Mildly spicy, suprisingly sweet. The flavor is intricate and very well balanced. I love this tea!

This is a sweet, comforting tea. I like it with cream and sweetener. It's widely available and consistently pretty good.

This is a solid breakfast, wake-up tea! Citrus and cinnamon notes of the aroma grab your attention right away. The flavor matches the aroma - top notch.

It's hard to objectively rate this tea because it invokes warm, loving, comfortable memories for me. I can only guess whether it will do the same for you.
