Today’s tea smells like Christmas! Melange Noel has a black tea base, with cinnamon, cloves, vanilla, cardamom, orange peel, rose petals, and almond pieces. Yum.

It’s a good strong tea, with robust spice flavors. I think it could do with a touch less cinnamon, but the vanilla and the cloves and cardamom are wonderful. It would be a fantastic tea to have on Christmas Eve, if it were snowing out. Very warming, because of the spices.

I like this tea, but don’t love it. Probably won’t buy this tea again, except for Christmas time.
