A mildly spiced tea that tastes like Christmas. Not overpowering at all and suitable to drink all year round. The canister is adorable.

I’m really enjoying this tea. Just what I expected a Cinnamony blend (still with tea in it) but strong or weak, hot or cold, it tastes Christmassy and spicy. I agree the canister is awesome and not something I’ve seen before from other brands. (This is my first try at Monista) Just wish it came with its own scoop!
