The taste is much stronger than the aroma, however - particularly the vanilla and the 'flavours'. Although described as 'natural', they linger and leave an artificial taste in the back of the throat. It's not one to have with food, either. It's almost a spiced cake in a cup, and it's strangely filling. It might be perfect if you're not feeling too well and need a kick to get you through a time of low appetite. The cloves also make it a good one for any mouth issues, like sore gums. Overall, it's warming but a bit sweet - probably great to have if you're craving sugar but want to be healthy, but it might be a bit too sweet for some. Ginger liked it but Tulsi wasn't a fan. Definitely don't overbrew this one, or the spice and sweetness could become overwhelming.Best time of year to drink this: Winter
