A solid licorice tea. I tried this as a cheap alternative for Yogi’s Egyptian Licorice, and it does pretty well. The vanilla (and possibly sarsaparilla) is a little off-putting, I think, and dominates too heavily (especially if steeped too long) making it a little too sweet for my palate.

My go-to green tea. It has a pleasant earthy aroma and a slightly metallic tang to the taste that gets more prominent the longer it brews. I tend to prefer it to higher-priced greens.

Tastes like a scented candle. The cardamom overpowers all other flavor, no amount of cream or sugar or additional cinnamon could save it for me. The balance seems way off with this one. Can’t taste the pumpkin at all.
