Celestial Seasonings Tea Bags Sweet Harvest Pumpkin Black Tea 18 Count

This is one of my favorite tea flavors ever! It smells like sugary graham crackers and tastes like a dessert, and the quality is top notch and consistent. I steep these for around 5 minutes in hot water and it's perfection, with a little milk for a creamy addition. The price point for the multi-pack was a great deal and it's lasted me months! I will definitely purchase this again.

This is for the Gingerbread Spice, and the Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride.Seriously, brew these with Trader Joe's Spicy Chai Latte Mix. It tastes like you're committing a crime._____I'll supplement with a more in-depth review:The Gingerbread Spice is insanely aromatic, potent already in the box. I'm typically not even one for this flavour-profile as it's so omnipresent during the cold seasons. That and there's a tendency for it to smell like a cheap candle. Not so with this tea. Whether flavoured with a generous serving of honey and a splash of milk, or, as I've recommended above, brewed in an already-mixed serving of Chai Latte, it basically yields a rich, syrupy, cinnamon pastry that you can both sip and inhale. Or as Edward Norton in "Glass Onion" said, "inbreathiate".The Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride on the other hand has an appropriately less complex flavour and aroma. I brew this the same way as I do the Gingerbread. If I wanna go heavier, I go with the Chai. If it's a morning brew, I go with honey and milk. Thankfully it isn't "just sweet". The barley lends depth, and the orange peel I detect as actually more of a lemony vibe. Just the barest hint, a bright, flowery note, not ever verging on cleaning-product, for those who aren't a fan of citruses.Both these blends bring about a deep sense of warmth, comfort, and familiarity, on top of that feeling of naughty indulgence.They really offer bang for your buck :)

I've been drinking this tea for years every winter, but it can be challenging to find. It seems each year different stores carry it, and I can't find it in the same store year to year. I definitely have to go hunting for it. I was glad to find it on Amazon. It's the very same tea. The box and the flavor match.Two complaints I see in reviews here are that taste is not very strong and people were wondering why the product is not wrapped in plastic like it is in the stores.As far as my experience, the flavor is the exact same. It is a light tasting tea. I don't know what the expectations of people were who said it has very little taste. Maybe they're black tea drinkers and like the boldness of black tea. That this tea is not. It's in a lite peppermint taste with vanilla. When I add a teaspoon of honey to it, it's like drinking a candy cane.As far as the packaging, there is a circular piece of tape that needs to be removed before opening a box. The boxes are not wrapped in plastic like you find them in the store. Celestial seasonings is really green company and they probably don't wrap the boxes in plastic for that reason. They wrap the ones sold in a grocery store with plastic because ripped plastic would reveal if the product has been tampered with while sitting on the shelf. As a green company, they probably think there's no reason for the plastic wrap when the product goes from warehouse to consumer. That would be my speculation. And even when you buy them in the store, the individual teabags are not wrapped.

I am not a fan of plain hot tea and I couldn't tolerate coffee with creamer when I was sick. This worked really well when hot to help clear my throat, smells delightful, and didn't upset my tummy. My mother has started drinking it in the evenings as well, when she wants something warm and comforting without caffeine.

I've grown accustomed to having this tea every Christmas for most of my life. Nice delicate seasonal flavor, without caffeine. Everyone in my household has it a little differently - me with sugar, daughter with milk, son likes it plain, grandma pours it over ice - but we all enjoy it. So upset when it became difficult to find, and so thrilled to find it on Amazon.

My favorite

I have tried several versions of chocolate teas lately, trying to get my chocolate fix without the calories and carbs. This is the only brand in which I could actually taste the chocolate. Others would have some scent but no actual flavor. And the price is good.

When I was younger I always used to get this tea in stores around Christmas time. I was looking for it the entire season but couldn't find it anywhere in store. So happy I found it on Amazon and can enjoy my holiday tea again!Delivery was really fast and packaging was in the box it came in (I ordered 6).
