Have had this tea before with boiling water, 5 minute steep, and been unimpressed. Changing things up today in hopes of a better cup.
Maybe it’s because I’m not a huge fan of cinnamon teas, but this tea really doesn’t do it for me. I get more of the flavour of the cinnamon and cloves than I do of the tropical that’s supposed to be in there. Using the lower temperature water made the tea much more enjoyable, since the cinnamon hasn’t had much of a chance to overpower the tea, but it’s still a mediocre cup at best. Drinkable, but not great.
