I'm not a huge fan of orange spice teas, but this is my favorite example of one yet.
This was a classic orange spice tea blend, a lot like Market Spice's Cinnamon Orange, or a more refined variant of Bigelow's Constant Comment. If you like either of those teas, I'd recommend this one.
I wish I had had the opportunity to sample this side-by-side with Market Spice's rendition...comparing them from memory, I thought this blend was a little milder tasting.
Very balanced. There's a good amount of tea and flavoring, each of the base tea, orange, and spice all come through, with none dominating. I thought the tea had a bolder presence than in most orange spice blends, and for that reason this would be my favorite one sampled.
