spiced green

(14 reviews)
Fresh green tea from China with the warm flavors of cinnamon, cardamom, and ginger. Rich, inviting aroma, zesty flavor and hearty finish. Not as potent as a some chai blends can be, so if you're interested in spiced tea, this lightly flavored cup is a very good place to start. Steep at 180°F for 2-3 minutes

A spicy aroma greets you when you open this tea. It steeps to a pretty yellow color. Although the flavor isn't nearly as intense as its smell, the usually grassiness of green tea is overpowered by clove and ginger. I was unable to distinguish cinnamon in the mix. I added ½ tsp of honey to bring out the orange flavor. Not my favorite spiced tea.

Wasn't a fan. Tasted more sour than spiced. Cant recommend in good faith. Most of the flavor was dominated by other additions like the orange peel rather than the leaves

This tea was a pleasant experience. The aroma was wonderful. The notes of cinnamon and ginger were great. The light cardamom flavors. It was similar to a chai tea.

An interesting chai to be sure but a chai nonetheless! The switch up of green tea in place of the more traditional black makes the tea a little softer around the edges but the spices usually present in chai were all there.

Other reviewers have already said it, but this tea is legitimately like Christmas in a cup - in taste and smell! I have never had a spiced green before, and I was pleasantly surprised (as I really don't tend to choose spiced teas at all). I didn't find the cinnamon and other spices overwhelming at all, and in fact the bright, lovely green tea flavor came through strong and clear, making for a really delightful and balanced cup of tea. I would possibly consider buying this again for the wintertime.

Light on the green tea flavor, heavy on the clove. I love clove, so this was really good. Not for everyone.

Tastes and smells like a christmas orange, the kind studded with clove. Good iced too, but probably better hot.

The tea is mild and the cloves are strong. The cinnamon and ginger are .ore of an aftertaste than a Ayer in the mix. Overall pretty good.

I liked the spiced scent coming out of the CommuniTea packet, but it's not as strong as I expected once steeped. Which I suppose is the point; a lightly spiced tea.
Though it's interesting, when it was at it's hottest I couldn't taste any spice, just a buttery green tea. As it cooled the spice became more prominent.
Steep 180F for 3min, steeped twice.

I didn't expect this from a green tea, but it tastes like Christmas! I love the ginger and I can't figure out exactly what spice makes this just right, but I am so into the combination!

Lightly spiced green tea. Didn't taste any orange flavor; mostly tasted of clove, but was very nice.

Smells like a fresh Christmas wreath. Very delicate green tea flavor with spice reminiscent of all things Christmas.

Definitely an interesting green tea. The spices make it unique and quite tasty.
