Tasty! The smell of the loose leaf and after it’s been brewed is heavenly. Raspberry is what I taste immediately, followed by the chocolate. I can’t seem to find the taste of the mint. Still pretty yummy, though.

Very marshmallowy and sweet, and something reminds me a bit of graham cracker. Eight Candles is almost too sweet. Not that it’s horrible or anything! But with my personal tastes, it’s a bit too sweet of a dessert tea, and I can’t see myself revisiting it often.

Picked this up mainly for now odd the combination sounded. Very enjoyable tea, though. Very creamy with a bit of milk and sugar. The toffee flavor is in the forefront, with the woody mustiness of the pu-erh trailing behind.

If you like bolder dessert teas (more along the lines of coffee) I would give this a try.

Chai, I am disappoint.

Chai’s one of my favorite tea blends, and this one smells amazing (as does most chai), but it is very mild. Now, that isn’t necessarily a bad thing if you prefer mild chai, but I like my chai on the strong side.

I’d like to find a go-to chai at some point, but I don’t think this is a contender.

Maybe I got some stale tea leaf, but I find this an average little tea. A chocolate black tea. Can’t really detect any guanabana.

This smells insanely sweet in the packaging with a medicinal whiff. The smell of the tea leaf actually had me a bit worried.

It tastes really creamy, which is pretty different for a rooibos (at least for myself). Alas, I don’t drink eggnog enough to make an accurate comparison. But the taste reminds me of some kind of caramel cream candy with a bit of cinnamon.

After drinking this for a bit, it has a REALLY pleasant aftertaste. I can’t really describe it, though. It’s kind of a delicate sweetness.

The smell reminds me of pipe tobacco; a rich vanilla scent.

While brewing, it smells much of the same, only with a bit less of vanilla.

With some milk and a bit of sugar, tastes very much like a vanilla rooibos: simple, comforting, woody vanilla.

This would probably be great iced, though I prefer my tea warm. It’s too cold out for me to be in the mood for iced tea, so perhaps I’ll save a bit for the warmer seasons to ice.
