Really liked this one. I dig the flavor combo. Too expensive to own other than the sample, but it kept changing on each rebrew and it lasted very long western and tumbler style. The cardamom would actually be more prominent in the later steeps with the almond and pumpkin flavors giving off nice balanced natural sweetness with the persimmon. Really dug the persimmon almond combo personally. I feel lame, but I agree it is a bit too pricy. It’s easily a winner compared to the other fall blends. I had the highest hopes for the Pumpkin Caramel Oolong, but it was too dominated by the cinnamon to be distinct. The other two were also overpowered by cinnamon. This one was balanced.

Glad I’m not the only one who wasn’t too impressed by the other teas in the collection! This one was quite nice, but yeah the price is a bit too steep for me. Honestly the others are actually not bad at $33 for 6 ounces, but this one is only 2.5 ounces, sigh…
Bohemian Breakfast is actually reasonable. The Astrology ones are on the border. Sometimes, whole vanilla beans are literally used. I feel bad that I’ve been the band wagon on steepster for these teas because there are some of them I’m absolutely addicted to, but others I think are overpriced. Most of them are very unique blends which is why I keep on trying them out and I’ll keep a few of them on hand for sure. Others I may cut back from. The Christmas seasonal teas were better in my opinion although I prefer fall flavors personally.
I agree about hte 2.5 oz though for silver needles….
Yeah I’m not sure I love it quite enough to pay that ha ha, we’ll see how I feel about it after finishing my sample. :P
