Review: From their Fairytale collection, this is essentially a Christmassy chai blend. The aroma is very strong - especially on the orange. It's like cleaning products - Harpic, specifically. (Someone in our office said it smelled like 'unhappiness'. Tulsi's husband described it as 'treacle'.) The flavour was better than we expected, although the cloves are intense, so your mouth is numb almost immediately. Maybe it's meant to mimic the experience of touching the spinning wheel and falling unconscious?? It's quite sweet, too. We really couldn't taste anything but cloves and citrus. But it wasn't bad, and it would certainly be good after a painful trip to the dentist. We can definitely see people liking it. Just...don't brew it for the 7-10 minutes recommended on the bag...because wow.
