Hot Cinnamon Spice

[majkia]

I usually buy a 'Christmas' tea or two, just because I love the holiday smells they invoke.

One I bought this year is Hot Cinnamon Spice

Having my first cuppa this morning since it is cold here for us, 6C/43F.

It has a fabulous aroma, apparent the moment you break the seal on the tin. And brewing it was even stronger. Smells like gingerbread cookies, perhaps or mulled cider.

The taste is a bit stronger than a chai, and as you sip the aroma is enhanced.


Quite strong enough for those of us who like their tea white of a morning.


Highly recommended!

I'm not a great tea drinker (when I turned three years old and had my own tea ration I had my cup of tea, and that was it apart from after swimming in the sea for many decades) but Whittards does a lovely "Christmas Pudding Tea" that even I enjoy.

Where do you buy it? I even went to the Wittards UK store and couldn't find it listed anywhere. Grr, now you've got me interested!

They only have it at Christmas, and not every year. It comes in a fancy tin which is worth keeping when the tea is gone.
