I received this as a sample with my last order, and I love this tea. I usually tend to like the very sweet and fruity ones, so I understand that this might not be for the folks who like pure green teas that are completely different but, I think it is worth a try. The flavors combine beautifully in this tea leaving you with a very fruity and spicy tea. I would highly recommend it if you like teas such as Azteca Fire.

Too bitter.
I got this because in the store, it seemed pretty decent. I thought it tasted pretty well, but the sample in the store simply did not have enough flavor in it.
I got this because in the store, it seemed pretty decent. I thought it tasted pretty well, but the sample in the store simply did not have enough flavor in it.
When I made it myself, though, the result was either above, or completely disgusting and very bitter. I would literally feel like I was going to throw up after drinking a cup. I tried reducing the time of steeping, I've tried using less leaves, I've tried everything I can think of, and no matter what it either has a very slight untraceable taste (And I want to be able to actually taste teas, and not an aftertaste), or terrible bitterness that makes me sick. I hated this tea, and I stupidly bought a lot of it and now I'm screwed with a half tin of something I will never drink.

I first tasted this tea in the store and immediately I fell in love with it. I told the cashier I want this. It has a truly great spicy flavor that I love.

This is the best tea I've ever had. I have it once or twice every day. It goes excellent with the german rock sugar. This tea is the reason I started my tea obsession and got to taste so many different blends. This is still my favorite one.

This tea is amazing. It's perfect if you would like to change up your typical tea drinking routine. The spice from the cinnamon is not overpowering; it adds just the right amount of flavor to the tea. Fantastic tea, would highly recommend.

Chai is one of my favorite teas, and has been for years. However, when I was offered to try this tea blend, I stopped mid-sip in complete awe. Teavana took Chai to a whole new level in this complex blend, it was literally heaven on my tongue. This tea is so rich and smooth with a full body. It has a delectable fruitiness to it that perfectly compliments the spicy notes of this tea. There's no bitter after taste, and your teapot will be empty before you even realize it.

This is a really nice, spicy tea. It has great flavor, and I can see why it's the holiday blend! It reminds me of fall/winter. However, I am very prone to heartburn, and this tea gave me a decent bit of heartburn. It's manageable, but if you're really prone to heartburn like me, take a Tums or Antacid first!

It's REDICULOUSLY aeromatic, somewhat sharp, but very delicious. The blend of spices is a garunteed win for anyone that's ever enjoyed a cup of hot tea -- especially mate.
