Too much black tea overrides other flavors. |
12/12/2021 |
| Taste is a lot of black tea with hints of nuts. I tried 1 tsp tea, 8 oz water 3 minutes – too weak. Tried 2 tsp tea, 8 oz water 4 minutes – too strong. Tried 2 tsp tea, 8 oz water 3 minutes – better but still too much black for me. I rate it a 7 out of 10. |

| I wasn't sure what to expect from this, with the chocolate in it. Wow! It is decadent, mouth filling, perfect to relax on a cold winter evening. I enjoy both flavored and unflavored teas, and this one is a dessert in a cup. |

Nutcracker Tea |
8/22/2018 |
| I ordered this tea because the ingredients sounded appealing. Like others have stated the mint is the most predominant flavor I'm picking up on. Its not overpowering though and even though I can't pick up on the almond, orange, cranberries or cinnamon they all come together to make a pretty tasty cup. I do prefer the St. Nick tea from the holiday collection but this one is a solid cup of tea. Very enjoyable. |

Not the magic I'd execpt with all these ingredients... |
6/9/2018 |
| It's summer, time to write a tasting note for Nutcracker! I've tried this tea a few times but it just never results in the cup I want. There are so many ingredients here, but it's very light in flavor, both with the black tea itself and the flavors and ingredients. What should be here: almond pieces, orange peel, cranberries, cinnamon & chocolate mint flavors. Even though I noticed plenty of orange pieces, and at least two cranberries and other various bits go into the infuser, it's tough to taste any of these. In a blind taste test, I probably wouldn't mention ANY of the included ingredients. Maybe all the flavors just combine together to create a new flavor instead of flavors I can't pick apart. Because honestly, I can't distinctly taste any of these flavors. Also, the black tea results in a very light brown color with both steeps. So overall, not the holiday magic I expect (and the steeps were the same in the winter as well, so it isn't just a matter of sipping season.) Ah well, can't win them all.
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoon for a full mug// 12 minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // 4 minute steep |

Christmas in a cup! |
12/29/2015 |
| This tea is as yummy as it smells! While the mint was a bit overpowering, all in all I loved this tea and plan to make it a Christmas Tradition in my teapot. It makes me think of the Nutcracker and would be a perfect drink while watching it! |

Great for Christmas |
12/7/2015 |
| Now this tea is really very good with flavors of almonds, chocolate, mint and cranberries. This tea will definitely remind you of Christmas at grandmas house. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars was I thought it had a little to much mint flavor, other wise its really yummy. |
