Another from Sips by. This is listed as White Tea with Apple and Spice on their website, but judging by the picture and description, I can see it’s the same.

I’m really impressed with the fruity apple aroma, but even more impressed by the ingredients. The white tea base is mostly whole, with lots of long, skinny stems mixed in. There are 1/2" sections of actual cinnamon stick, big slices of dried green apple, and halved dried cranberries. After steeping, the fruit reconstitutes and looks pretty tasty! I should have nibbled.

The tea comes out very lightly colored, sort of like hay. Apple flavor is in the forefront, complimented by cranberry. The spice is mild and lets this come across as very fruit forward. In fact, the spice is almost hidden, despite the big pieces. As is the white tea base. I can somewhat taste the leaves, but not really. This tea is pretty much all apple all the time. Not that I mind!

EDIT: Now that it’s cooled to a little less than room temperature, I can really taste the cinnamon! Interesting!

Flavors: Apple, Cinnamon, Cranberry, Fruity

Quiet, strange, and in love with the world of tea. Living just outside of Atlanta. Cat lover, electronic music geek, balcony gardener, and collector of fossils. On the hunt for the perfect tea in each of my favorite categories.

After 10 years on Steepster, I have given up. The lack of maintenance, updates, and mobile compatibility have finally discouraged me. I still use my Cupboard and add teas to the database, but I won’t be logging teas anymore.
