Details

Experience a highly structured, masterfully calibrated winter masterpiece: our premium Holiday Spiced Flavored Black Tea offers a magnificent, full-bodied loose leaf experience engineered for true epicureans. Utilizing an elite, high-grown black tea matrix as its architectural canvas, this signature reserve orchestrates an intricate spectrum of warm botanical spices and lively citrus elements. Poured hot, it draws a clear, deep mahogany liquor in the cup, releasing an opulent, thick bouquet of sweet spices and zesty orange. The palate is treated to an exceptionally smooth, robust mouthfeel where assertive layers of premium cinnamon and aromatic cloves harmonize seamlessly with a sweet, refined citrus finish—performing with absolute excellence completely neat, or softened with a splash of milk and fine sweeteners.


The Spice Cooperative: Botanical Extraction Kinetics & Citrus Equilibrium

The exceptional structural depth and flavor longevity of this flavored black tea allocation rely on a highly calculated synthesis of natural ingredients. The architectural base features choice orthodox black tea leaves, celebrated for their clean, resilient tannins and robust structural spine. Hand-blended into this dark leaf foundation is an intentional arrangement of **dried cinnamon and aromatic cloves**.

Upon thermal hydration, these specialized botanicals initiate rapid chemical dissolution kinetics. The cinnamaldehyde compounds within the cinnamon bark and the eugenol essential oils native to the cloves dissolve in a linear curve, working in tandem to round out the bold astringency of the base tea leaf. This warming core is masterfully layered with an orange spice matrix and natural flavors, introducing clean citrus terpenes that cut through the heavier spice weights. The resulting extraction behaves with absolute resilience, offering a deeply comforting self-drinking cup that maintains its vivid aromatic profile and clear visual presence throughout the entire steeping cycle.

Reviews

Great value, well flavored

"We've been buying this blend for over a decade. While it says "Holiday," we enjoy the well balanced orange and spice notes year round, served with cream and sugar. A tasty and economical blend to add to your tea rotation."

Gayle G. (5/5)

Great for fall and winter

"This tastes just like the Orange Spice boxed tea bags you can get at the grocery store. Very cozy!"

Teresa E. (5/5)

Both bitter and bland

"Definately not a rebuy. The tea is more dust than leaves, making me wonder if this is floor sweeping. The taste is both bland and bitter. The only thing that really stands out is that bitterness, possibly nutmeg? I tried it both hot and cold, and neither style was the least bit impressive. I buy a Lot of tea from ETS, but won't ever buy this one again. It went into the compost tub - I couldn't think of a use for it in either drink or cooking that could overcome that nasty aftertaste."

Holiday Spiced Flavored Black Tea - Loose Leaf

"I just love the English Tea Store teas. So many to try."

Vivian Q. (5/5)

Bland

"I ordered this tea hoping to find the flavor of mellow holiday spices. While it looked the same as the picture, the aroma of the dry tea had a hint of old tobacco to it. I tasted none of the expected cinnamon, orange, and clove flavors. The brewed flavor was akin to dishwater. And NO, I have not had COVID."

Ruth A. (1/5)

Delicious but too fine

"Not as pictured. This tea is delicious but hard to consider a loose tea. It’s more like a coarse powder and is hard to corral, gets everywhere. Look at the apple spice tea for a better size and still delicious spice option."

Audra M. (3/5)

A finely ground holiday tea.

"A delicious tea with finely ground spices to give it a lovely aroma and taste."

Rory M. (5/5)
