Prep: 212F, 5min, 2tsp, 16oz

It’s Christmas and all of my gifts this year were tea. I’ve had quite a day of sampling some new blends. I’m probably well over the caffeine limit but let’s keep the train rolling.

One of my gifts was a holiday adagio set with six 1oz tins. Most of the blends sounded tasty but I was skeptical about pumpkin spice. But.. see below.

Aroma: reminds me of a chai blend. Very spicy with cinnamon leading the way. I’m not sure I get pumpkin but that spice blend that you’d associate with a pumpkin spiced latte is popping. 9/10

Flavor: This is really nice. Balanced, flavorful, and really darn seasonal. Not quite as spicy as the most intense chai blends but this has plenty of pop if you like a spiced tea. 8/10

Body: This is not the biggest body but it’s got plenty to stand up to the flavor. 7/10

Value: After checking the site, this comes in at 8 dollars for 3 ounces. Bargain. 8/10

Overall: I’m shocked. I expected this to be the weakest of the teas in the sampler. I now wonder if it may be the strongest. 100 percent recommend. 8/10
