I was thinking of ordering some. It sounds decent....apples, cinnamon cloves and ginger

I thought it was crap, but I loathe TROT, so there is a bit of a bias there.

I could see what people might like about it, though I had to use mutliple teabags to make it strong enough. It tasted like mulling spices.

I had it at a friend's house recently...and unfortunately, I'd second Space's opinion. It's spice filled, but bland. You just sort of want the strength of a real apple cider, and it's lacking that. It might be nice actually steeped in hot cider, though.

RoT has a few really great teas. The herba matte latte, I love. The orange ginger mint is great, and theres a few others. Those aside, I agree that the rest are awful.
