Gingerbread Customer Reviews

My 16 year old is hooked! Delicious with some shortbread cookies.

This tastes and smells nothing like gingerbread to me. It's still a good tea though. Maybe I'll try brewing it double-strength next time.

It's pretty tasty, but it's almost a little too bland. I think a bit more spice would enhance the flavor.

I couldn't taste any ginger in this tea. The only flavor I could pick out was a mild, sickeningly sweet sort of fruity flavor that did not sit well on my empty stomach. Not recommended.

Smells fantastic. Tastes good but is quite weak. As a gingerbread/holiday lover, this is a good treat but definitely not a regular tea.

Perfect balance, the tea itself is not too strong and the gingerbread flavor is understated without being weak, an exceptional holiday tea.

A nice, sweeter tea for the winter time. It has a little spicy flavor to go along with the sweet. It's not very strong, but it's nice.

This is okay. It smelled very strongly of spicy gingerbread in the bag, but brewed it doesn't taste like much other than black tea. Sweet and pleasant enough, but not as good as I hoped.

Wonderful smell of gingerbread from the leaves (brewed and unbrewed), the taste is simply black tea with a hint of gingerbread. Nothing amazing but good for any gingerbread lovers.

I cant wait to try this tea. Its perfect for the holiday season.

A treat all by itself. Use for blending with other Holidays teas to create a very special blend for your guests.

This was a pretty good tea all around, though it didn't meet my expectations. Was expecting a much stronger gingerbread aroma, but find the aroma a little flat, though pleasing. It taste good, but again was hoping for more bold flavors. Perhaps more ginger with some nutmeg or allspice, and some molasses would be nice to add to the flavor profile. Again, a perfectly respectable tea, but I think I could probably create a blend that would be more like what I was expecting.

I loves me some ginger. I likes me some gingerbread tea. I'd love it, I think, if it were just an eensy bit more intense but like I said -- I loves me some ginger. Sweetened, this is a lovely spicy/gingery dessert tea with a little bit of a bite.

Very light on the flavor. I think I was expecting something a little more gingery. I seem to like stronger flavors in my black teas. This would be more suited to someone who prefers subtle flavors.

I'm not usually a big gingerbread fan but this is wonderful! It tastes a bit better than the real thing to me.

Not much flavor here. I was surprised, a little disappointed. I was looking for a Christmassy Fall blend. Maybe it was Old? It just had no special qualities.

Wow...who needs to eat the real thing...just have a cup of tea. YUM.

This tea is very good. I like it with milk and sugar. My first cup did get a little bitter after 4 1/2 minutes, so I think I will try only brewing for 3 minutes next time.

One of my favorites. Smell it and you'll want to bake cookies.

A very tasty tea, slightly gingery but not overpoweringly so. I enjoy it.

I can't see how this is supposed to be gingerbread. It's a little bitter, and just not very good. I've been mixing it with other tea and drinking it because I bought it, but I'll be glad when it's gone.

This is a new favorite of mine! It's a very warm and comforting flavor and makes a great winter treat.

Not one of my favorites, but its not terrible either.

Not gingerbread like at all. Had no real spice flavor to it.

Of all the spiced tea varieties, this is my favorite. I wish it was available yearround.

It tastes good but the body is kinda greasy... I probably won't buy this again.

not as much ginger flavor as I was expecting, I found that I liked it better if I steeped it a minute or so longer than usual.

The gingerbread flavor is perfect! Not too light, not too much. I bought a 4 oz. tin to indulge in throughout the year.

The scent of the gingerbread wasn't too strong before brewing and it definitely lighted up in the cup. I thought it might be a bit "weird" for drinking but then I realized I finished the entire 16 oz. mug I made. It's more of a mild spice than a true gingerbread flavor, but I'm glad it's not overdone.

Could use a lot more gingerbread and a little sweeter so it could smell like gingerbread. I love the tea, just not what I expected.

Very tasty not too over powering. Very nice tea to get you in the holiday mood.

it's like having tea and fresh made cookies in one easy step, and without getting four all over your kitchen

This is a good dessert tea. It had a nice, not overpowering flavor. A little milk and some honey and it is so good.

This tasty tea has quickly become my favorite. A little sugar and a splash of milk makes it event tastier. I love this tea when it's cold outside it really warms you up. It has spices that are perfectly blended, I recommend a 4 minute 30 second brew time.

This was nicely balanced, with a good spicy aftertaste to it. Not a replacement for a gingerbread cookie, but a nice accompaniment for anything rich or sweet, as the spice of the tea would compliment them.

Gingerbread is a great spicy, wintry tea! Just be careful not to steep it for too long it the spiciness will turn to bitterness.

I dislike spicy teas and this is no exception. It has a weird peppery flavor that I am not a fan of. I'm glad I only got a sample.

warm gingerbread is how this tastses and it is just whats needed on a cold night !

Greatr on its own, and has just the right amount of spices/flavorings in the tea so that you can still know it's a tea and not just spiced water. Mixes very well with other black teas like the pumpkin spice and irish breakfast. Excellent with a bit of milk.

One of the better flavored blacks I've tried. The taste is extremely light (gingerbread) so don't expect it to be a substitute for a gingerbread cookie, because it surely won't be.

This is a good tasting black tea. I am not tasting or smelling much ginger in it. Definitely wanted more spicy ginger flavor.

Not bad. I was hoping for more gingerbread flavor but it was too subtle to notice

so far my favourite, has a nice smooth, balanced flavour

i love this! it smells amazing and tastes even better! one of my favorites to sit and cuddle up with while watching your favorite movie

I love this tea. Tastes just like the cookie without the calories.

I'm not really getting the gingerbread flavor. It tastes like tea and smells a bit cookie-ish. It's okay but not what I was hoping for.

I didn't think I would like this one, but for $2. I really like this one although if left too long to steep, it gets too strong & bitter

One of my favorite holiday teas on the site. It was a little powerful to me at first, but when blended with other black tea it worlds wonderfully.

This tea tastes almost exactly like a gingerbread cookie.

Very good, and my grandmother highly enjoyed it. Couldn't be more pleased.
