Orange-cinnamon Ceylons - the American Chai?

Postby mbanu » Mar 28th, '12, 19:28

After World War II, flavored black teas rose in prominence in the United States market to the point that they are now one of the best-selling categories of tea there.

One thing I've noticed is how many of the best sellers seem to use a orange-cinnamon blend - Bigelow's "Constant Comment", MarketSpice tea from the Pacific Northwest, Harney & Sons Hot Cinnamon Spice...

What do you think it is about that flavor profile that makes it so popular?

Did this sort of flavored tea have regional popularity before WWII?
