Story

Cinnamon was among the spices whose trade funded the glories of Venice. Earlier in civilization, Egyptians used it for embalming (cinnamon has antibacterial properties) and Rome imported vast quantities of it, oddly enough to flavor wine, but not food. Using cinnamon as cooking spice became common during the Middle Ages, when it also gained a reputation as a digestive, an aphrodisiac, and a cold remedy. Nowadays, cinnamon is mainly used to flavor desserts, as well as a companion to coffee and tea.

"Not a good iced tea. Might be better as hot tea. Cinamon was way too strong, and tasted more like red hots than a mild cinamon tea."

"Very pleasant smell and taste. The only annoying thing is the tea itself is a little sticky, making the tin it came in hard to open/close. I've had a few incidents with tea all over the counter."

"I agree with others that this tea smells like red hots. But I like red hots so it works for me. A fairly strong cinnamon taste and I would qualify this as a dessert tea. If you brew different flavors in the same infuser make sure you use soap to wash out your infuser and cup otherwise you will notice a cinnamon residue. "

"This is a good black tea with a little spice. The cinnamon is not strong as expected. Howerver if you use this tea to experiment and mix with the fruit tea, than this will ehance the flavor of your fruit teas. "
