Cost: Around $3.50 at Whole Foods
Number of teabags: 20 - individually sealed in attached double paper bags
Caffeine: No
Type of tea: Herbal
Steeping time: 4 minutes
Double Dipper potential: Yes, give it 5-6 minutes the second time
Mix ins: Sugar, milk. I tried it with 2% instead of skim or whole, just to keep the docs happy. Tasted just fine.
Teabag fragrance: "Roasty!" With a little bit of spice
Ingredients: Roasted barley, roasted chicory, roasted carob, cinnamon, allspice and Chinese star anise.
Taste: You can detect the chicory, but it is not bitter. It looks dark, like coffee. Smells and tastes great. Love the cinnamon/allspice/anise combo, and the carob is a good substitute for a chocolate essence.
My opinion: Perfect flavor weight for Fall/Winter.
Would I go back and buy another box? Yes. I panicked last Spring when I couldn't find it anymore at the store location I usually shop. But Whole Foods brought it back.
Rating: 4+ teabags out of 5. As of right now, this is my favorite herbal tea, hence the "+" after the 4. It's hard to be consistent!
