Christmas Customer Reviews

This is a fun tea with a sweet flavor that does remind me of Christmas. Truth be told, when I ordered the sample, I was kind of hoping it would be similar to the German Weihnachtstee, but it was missing a crucial element - there was no almond in it. But the rest of the flavors were rather close to Weihnachtstee, and are also similar to Adagio's Oriental Spice tea, though less like a chai. I love the combination of orange and spices in this one. And now I want to mix this with the black almond tea. Or maybe hazelnut. I drink this one with honey and/or milk fairly often, which I think brings out the orange nicely.

I thought I would enjoy this tea but sadly I did not care for it that much.

Tastes like a typical black tea but I can also taste the spices that were used. I really like it and would order again

I really like this one. It does taste like Christmas. The spices are just right for me.

This tea has a very nice flavor. I like it with a little milk but it's also very good on it's own.

I really can't identify what I didn't like about this. I'm not sure it was a spice but it almost tasted like an orange had been macerated whole, pith and all, and the entire thing has been included in the blend. It kind of over powered the rest of the tea.

Definitely not what I was hoping for.

I was not expecting this tea to be as lovely as it is. There is a nice balance of spices. While not normally a fan of orange in my tea, this has just the right amount to make it perfectly christmas-y.

I didn't think I would like this tea. But, I am happy to find out that I was wrong. This tea is great!

This tea doesn't have a very strong spice flavor. I liked it, but I guess I was looking for something spicier. Next time I'll try brewing it for 5 minutes.

This is just not good. Not good at all. I highly do NOT recommend

I love this blend! It's the perfect balance of citrus and spice that I associate with the holidays.

A great blend of flavorful teas that would just perfect to give as Christmas gifts.

Extremely good in water, also fantastic made with hot apple cider for a spiced cider

This tea straight out of the bag smells a-mazing. It had high hopes for it, but the cinnamon and ginger in this is so strong. Like sucking on a cinnamon candy for way too long and then licking some ginger. Next time I would steep it for less, but I don't know if that will help.

I'm not a clove fan so the combo of spices didn't do it for me.

this tea is to die for. such a special treat. I crave it when I don't have it on hand

I had high hopes for this blend. but I was really disappointed with the flavor. It basically tastes like oriental spice, which isn't my favorite of flavors. I wouldn't suggest this to anyone, nor would I refer to this taste as a Christmas blend. Ugh. I'm glad this was just a free sample. I wouldn't waste my money on this flavor at all.

This was my husband's favorite, he liked the spices in this tea. Vanilla Oolong was his go to until I got this one. Now this is the one he wants in the evening.

I love spiced tea, and not just around Christmas. I live in a state of near perpetual winter so this tea is a nice way to stave off the chilly weather. The spice taste is strong, but if that's what you're looking for itll be perfect.

This tea wasn't the peppermint-y tea I was expecting. Instead it is more of a wassail flavor. I really enjoyed my sample.

A bright and full bodied tea. Ginger might be the strongest noticeable flavor followed by lighter clove and citrus notes. The flavors border on being too subtle, but the tea is still enjoyable - a wholly simple and inoffensive cup for when you just want something welcoming.

I really enjoy this Christmas tea! It smells so amazing and will be perfect in the winter!

This tea is spicy yet sweet, and has an aroma that really does make me think of Christmas. You can drink it plain, but I definitely prefer it with a touch of milk.

Has a very nice aroma...feels like home! My family enjoys this after dinner.

Taste's just like Christmas!!! It reminds me of the 'spiced tea' we had when I was a kid, except it's real.

This tea was okay. better than average tea off a grocery shelf, but not enough flavor for me.

Not my everyday cup of tea, but this is nice when I want a spiced tea but don't want to invest in making chai. Doesn't really remind me of Christmas though.

I got this hoping for a tea on the spicy side. I usually really like Christmas teas,but this one was a let down. The flavours were very muted and it just tasted like a black tea.

Oh my goodness! This is one of my favorites. If you like spice, give this one a try!

A little of this and a little of that, in just the right combination!

Perfect for sipping on a cold rainy (or better yet, snowy) day. :) Even though it's a Christmas tea, I keep it in my cupboard all year for when I want something with orange spice.

The Christmas tea is very good but the chai spices tend to dominate. It should be called Christmas Chai.

This tea is okay, just not the tea for me. Decent enough flavor, but I like my teas to be spicier.

Get in the spirit with this lovely tea. It is a comforting blend of familiar flavors.

A warm and comforting tea, it really does taste the way I'd expect the holidays to taste. Even just the distinct aroma is divine.

This is a nice, spicy blend to get you in the holiday mood.

Warming, comforting spices to get you into the holiday cheery mood. Great in the morning or evening - would make an excellent addition to eggnog.

I love this tea so much! It's spicy like a chai, but without the pepperiness.

Strong orange scent before brewing, mellows when brewed and the spice comes out.

Christmas in a cup. Picture all of the spices used around Christmas. If you love the smell (and taste) of gingerbread cookies you will enjoy this tea. My friend said it very much resembles a masala chai.

Won't order this one again. I'm sure some people really like it, but it is has too strong a taste for me.

You might ask yourself, how can a tea represent a holiday? Well this one does perfectly.. Spicy, Minty.. Merry Christmas!!

This one reminds me of Christmas all year round. I like drinking it on rainy days, it helps brighten up those grey days.

I got my father into drinking tea by having him try this tea! The cloves and the light orange flavor is like a chai. Very warming and comforting.

Wasn't particularly xmasy to me but a very good black tea!

I was craving something with cinnamon, and this hit the spot! It wasn't breathtaking, but would make a nice staple.

Unfortunately I got this for a gift for my mother who does not like ginger so she gave it back to me. I don't think the ginger is too strong, though I happen to love ginger. I think the spices are very well balanced and it definitely gives you the warm fuzzy Christmas feeling.

Great spiced tea. Awesome for the holidays. Nice orange notes

A pleasant seasonal flavor, but not as spicy as I expected.

Nice spiced full bodied black tea. I wish the spices had a little more cinnamon and a little less clove.
