I like this tea with a little sugar and cream. I'm glad that good decaf black teas exist!

I really loved this tea. The dry leaf smells of orange and spice. Once steeped the tea is a nice mellow black tea base with a subtle orange flavor and hints of cinnamon and clove. This was very enjoyable, I think it would make a great latte too. It actually reminded me a bit of Christmas with the orange and spice.

So this tea reminds me a lot of the Sagittarius zodiac tea Adagio offers, but with less of a bitter kick. I took it with a little honey and it's a very tasty tea for sure!

When I first opened the package I smelled the orange and cinnamon! My taste buds started watering and I couldn't wait to taste this tea. I generally put a bit of cream in my spiced teas but wanted to taste it without first. Very good, but I still added a bit of cream and it was even better. Love this tea. :D

So glad to find a black tea that is caffeine free!!! I loved the spice that it provided. I added just a small amount of creamed honey to it for just a tad bit of sweetness.

I really like this tea! I can’t drink a lot of the spicy teas due to the amount of cinnamon they contain. I have a slight cinnamon allergy so too much cinnamon makes my mouth itch... weird, I know! This tea has more of a clove flavor. I will definitely be ordering this one in the future for my evening decaf drink.

I really enjoyed this spiced tea. It was the perfect cup of evening tea for a cold winter night. Will be ordering this again.

I'm digging the cloves. As a stronger-flavored tea, I'd prefer it caffeinated though. I tend to like milder-flavored teas for decaf.

It's good to find a decaf tea with lots of flavor. The taste gave me the strangest deja vu', but I couldn't remember for what until late last night. It was a brand of tea that came in a tin that a specialty shop carried when I was in college - 30 years ago - when the shop went out of business, the tea disappeared from my life. I used to drink it all winter long while studying and tasting a similar taste again on a foggy cold day brought back that memory.

Love the spice! I am a fan of spicy decaf teas, as my new years resolution is to avoid too much caffeine. This is a perfect afternoon tea that makes it so easy to keep that resolution while also reminding me of homemade spiced tea!
