I tend to like my teas more on the delicate side but I like my tisanes on the strong side. This particular herbal blend is super strong. It consists of cinnamon, hibiscus, currants, licorice root, and natural plum flavor. Nothing delicate in this tisane! I followed the brewing instructions and steeped this using 1 tablespoon in boiling water for 5 minutes.The fragrance coming from my little teapot was taunting me and I could not wait to take a sip. It was deep and robust which included a strong licorice scent with a hint of cinnamon. I could also pull out the plum but this blend has so many strong flavors you really have to concentrate to bring out the individual ones. I was also surprised to discover that this has a nearly identical fragrance dry as it does steeped. The color in my cup was a deep cranberry and reminded me of the winter holidays.
The taste was full-bodied and flavorful. Sweet, spicy, and tart all describe it perfectly. This blend really packs quite a bit of punch. Some people might prefer this kind of blend in the cooler months to warm them up and comfort them. This is not what I would call a refreshing drink, so look else where if that is what you are after. However, I would drink this all year round when I needed to just relax and indulge in a heart-warming, strong herbal blend.
