Description

A long time traditional Southern U.S. favorite, but a stranger to the tea world, our sweet potato pie tea is bound to become a new star. A hint of toasted marshmallow makes this tea surprisingly decadent.

"2.25 grams of leaf steeped in 6 ounces purified water. This tea (both raw leaves and steeped) definitely smells sweet, but the ceylon tea is also very present as it does not smell like a cream or even vanilla flavored tea. When I taste it, the 1st thing that hits my tongue is the ceylon. I hate when I drink a flavored tea and all I get is the flavor. Then the hint of sweetness. The potato doesn't come thru in the flavor as much as it does the mouth feel and texture. It may seem weird that I say this because tea is a liquid, but this tea definitely has a dry, starchy texture and mouth feel. But then again wine, which is also a liquid, can be dry so I've decided tea can be as well. I'm going to resteep this, but I probably won't get as many infusions I consider satisfactory as a person who really enjoys black teas as I find that for me they get watery tasting very quickly. "

"I love this tea! I can't believe what a bad rap sweet potato is getting. This is the first tea I go to for a tea party. I don't even like sweet potato, but the starchiness and sweetness add so much depth to the ceylon. I received this as a gift and was very hesitant to try it, but I love it and I urge anyone who is on the fence to definitely try it too."

"This is a good tea to have once in awhile. I would suggest it during the colder part of the year."

"Om nom nom! It's like the chubby, friendly younger brother to Valentines tea. At least in my head."

"In the tin, this tea smells a little musty, but ina pleasant way -- like someone's grandmother's pantry full of baking supplies or something. I'm not sure I'd be able to identify that it was sweet potato pie if it weren't for the label, but I do like the flavor. Even moreso with sweetener."
