I got my sampler yesterday. I've tried the Autumn Blend and really liked it. I'm actually about to go make myself some of the gingerbread - it's the one I've been anticipating the most
Oh! And they threw in an extra pumpkin spice for free
I got it as well. I have yet to try them, though.

So far I prefer the pumpkin spice. The gingerbread didn't have much flavor (probably because I drank it right after the pumpkin spice) and I couldn't really get into the autumn blend. I have yet to try the others, though.

There are four advantages to green tea... Its beauty, its taste, its aroma, and its health benefits. Learn to enjoy the first three and you'll forget you drank it for the fourth. ^^
I just tried the Pumpkin Spice sample that came with my last order.
It certainly isn't bad, and in fact it's pretty tasty, but the spice flavor is just so weak (a problem I've noticed with all of the spiced adagio teas I've tried so far).
I understand that the flavor of the tea itself is very nice, and I'll still drink and enjoy the rest of the tin, but anyone hoping for something with more of a kick to it will probably be disappointed.
Oddly, the green earl grey I actually ordered has the perfect balance of tea and flavoring. Maybe I just like my spice teas stronger than most people; I don't know.
