Warmth comes in a variety of shades and seasons, insinuating itself first in the intensely autumnal sight of this decaffeinated spiced black tea. One can't help but picture a fire when confronted with the site of ember-like citrus chips atop a crisp smolder of black tea. It's the perfect blend to let heat tease out the lung-opening flavors, letting the tang spark your palette while the generous cinnamon bark adds heat. All that's missing is a fireside chair and your favorite novel.

This tea has depth, flavor and an aroma that adds edge to the idea of “cozy”, unable to be missed, even by the attentions of the most devoted coffee drinker. Hot cinnamon spice warms in stages, realizing that simple steam and weight do not a heated evening make. Rather it's the initial zest quickly peels back to allow for the clove-clouded black central tones to take control. Long burning flavors from the cloves ensure that the warmth will last.
The appearance of all good tea matches the promised sensation. Hot cinnamon spice has a distinct look with bright citrus pieces nestled among the robust black of tea leaves and cloves. An unforgettable tea and a perennial holiday gift favorite; it's best to stock up.
