The Republic of Tea Comfort and Joy Tea Holiday Spice Blend Black Tea

Customer Reviews

WonderfulIf I could, I d give this 10 stars!! So perfect!! I went to a tea house for my birthday and they had this Carmel apple red tea flavor for their fall tea special. I wasn t sure I could find the same great taste. so I took the plunge and ordered this! And boom same amazing taste!! Put a little cream and one sugar cube, to die for!! Cozy up for a good movie and you ll be set!! I will be ordering more in the near future.5Tea was completely flavorlessI was very disappointed by this tea! I ordered this tea because I had tried a similar tea sample from The Republic of Tea brand before, but this tea had no taste at all. All the much cheaper teas I've gotten in stores from other more common brands have more flavor than this tea. I like the tin that the teas came in, and there was a noticeable vanilla aroma coming from the tin even before opening it, so I was expecting the teas to have at least some flavor, especially for the expensive price! I bought the Good Hope Vanilla Red Tea flavor.Also, beware that there's no option to request an exchange or refund for this tea even if it arrives damaged. My package was left on the ground outside my house in the rain, and the container of the tea as well as the tea inside had gotten wet. I'm not sure if this contributed to the tea being flavorless, but other reviews also mention their teas lacking flavor as well. I do not recommend purchasing this tea or from this seller, and I don't plan on purchasing this tea again.1I am very disappointed to report that making a cup of 'Hot Apple ...After reading the reviews, I purchased this 'Apple Cider' Tea very much looking forward to the taste over our long cold winter (I live in Canada). After at least 6 to 7 different attempts of using one Tea bag in 6 ounces of boiling water as the instructions indicate, I am very disappointed to report that making a cup of 'Hot Apple Cider' Tea is tasteless and the tea color looks like hot water with a slight caramel color. It wasn't until I attempted 2 Tea bags in 6 ounces of boiling water that there was a real taste of 'Apple Cider' with the proper consistency and color. Considering that this Tea was not cheap price wise, I feel that I received half the amount I paid for and will have to use 2 Tea bags upon each future attempt of making this Tea.2Nice soothing after dinner tea.My favorite just got more expensive and this one had to grow on me. I am now enjoying it but was spoiled by the last brand which now is too expensive to purchase. Sorry but paying almost a $1.50 per teabag for the other brand was just way too much.This one has a pleasing taste once I got used to it. I will most likely purchase again.UPDATE: This one's price has also increased and I may have found another vendor which is more like the original price I purchased.21Mar2019 UPDATE. Price has skyrocketed. What a shame. Has increased roughly by $7. that's way too much.3Suprising blend, invitingWhen I first opened this container and took a smell of this tea blend, I almost cried. But holidays make me a bit maudlin, so don't mind me. I was expecting a sharper smell, but this is a warm, inviting and comfortable blend that still feels like a treat. There is a nice spread of flavors. Not fussy to prepare, and will sweeten easily.One sachet will do 8-12 oz. I just pop one in a large mug and microwave it. Let it steep for a few minutes and it is good to go. Perhaps not the proper way, but I know what I like. I'm happy I tried it and will look for their other holiday teas.5Worth itI tried a pumpkin tea at the mall nearest me once years ago and I loved it! I didn t buy it at the time. The next year I went back to buy it and they didn t have the same flavor they had mixed it with something else and it wasn t as good. So I tried again the next year and the shop was gone. So finally I decided to try searching online. There were lots of choices but based on the ratings I chose this tea. I would give this tea 5/5 on the aroma, it has a full body of scents you can pick out individual that lets you know this tea is going to have a rich vibrant flavor all on its own. That is why the flavor only gets 4/5 stars. Because the aroma is so good and promising that when you drink it it feels like a bit of a letdown. Don t get me wrong the flavor is still good. It just tastes weak compared to the aroma. Which lets be honest what tea has a strong flavor compared to say taking a bite of watermelon or an orange. I d say the only one i ve Had that promises as much with its aroma then delivers with an equal flavor would be chai. The packaging is excellent and is as seen in the images. Over all I m glad I got this tea. It s not the same as I had once in a mall tea shop so long ago but it s close enough that it helps bring the season of fall alive.4Enjoyable & Health PromotingI love the taste, the smooth feel and texture, the fact that it's natural, the natural lack of caffeine the health benefits of rooibos (which can help support immune systems, and why I bought it), the balance of flavor from the vanilla bean in it--it's a top notch tea that is tasty and calming. I get tired of weak teas, and this is definitely not--although it is mild it is full flavored. I love that I don't need to add sugar to it to enjoy the taste. The circular tea bags are fun as well. It helps me slow down in my demanding life with a special needs child, job and performance schedule!5Not just a holiday tea!Best tea ever! Purchased a can prior to Christmas made by Republic of Tea but marketed by Harry and David Co. Took some searching, but finally found the item (by ingredients, as the marketed name "Holiday Spice" was not that used by Republic of Tea in their production name). Great tea, not only at the holidays, but any time. This is a limited production which reads "when it's gone it's gone"........hope that is not true. Needs to become a staple item in their tea lineup.5What's heppening with The Republic of Tea teas?This tea company used to be my favorite. I loved loved loved their Good Hope Vanilla, Sip and Be Merry, Downton Abbey Estate Blend (vanilla earl grey, mmmmm). However, my recent orders are very disappointing. Good Hope Vanilla became very weak in flavor and now I need 2 tea bags to brew a satisfactory cuppa. I don't understand what's happened? Either they put less tea in teabags or use some fillers now. Or the tea itself is old and stale...I wish they rather increased the prices than reduced the quality. I would come back for favorite products even if the prices got higher. I'll look for a new brand if the quality is not there anymore.3Not Just for Christmas Anymore!Finally a Republic of Tea that lives up to its reputation. It has the most wonderful flavor and smells as good as it tastes. This is a rare commodity. I just made two separate cups of tea. I added a little International Delight, Caramel Macchiato (no sugar) and it was a lovely addition to my cup. You definitely need the addition of creamer and for me, it's "sugarless." I will be purchasing a lot more of this tea...it's my favorite!5
