Their tour is great too. If you're having any sinus issues, the mint room will take care of them for you! It was really informative, neat to learn how much is grown locally, they have a place you can taste all of their teas and an awesome gift shop. I definitely recommend the tour if you're in the area, and I'm not even a tea drinker usually.

I love all things cinnamon but didn't end up liking this tea. (Maybe I would have liked it iced but I gave the rest to someone else) I do like Bigalow Cinnamon Stick tea. This one also has clove and orange in it so maybe that's why you didn't care for it. I like those flavors in tea also, so who knows lol.

Celestial Seasonings factory is in Boulder, CO. Their tour is great too. I've only drank green tea and Celestial Seasonings peppermint tea. It's great when I have an upset stomach. Patter how strong is the clove taste? It would need to be very subtle for me to like the tea.

I stocked up on some Harney & Sons tea at Christmas, including a cinnamon variety. I had no idea Walmart sold it!

That's not a common allergy. Sorry for you. I'm in a hibiscus tea kick lately. My favorite restaurant has it but I can only find hibiscus mint. I'm going to look for the cherry blossom and blueberry one.

Patter Ok- I picked this up at WM today and I'm not even a tea drinker! But I wanted something at night because I tend to nibble on a protein bar until I've eaten the whole thing- too may carbs... I saw the Chocolate tea- anyone tried it? Please tell me it's good...

It's a black tea blend, which means it has enough caffeine to give an elephant trouble sleeping (as far as I'm concerned). There are some great flavored herbal teas, which are generally caffeine free. I also like Republic of Tea decaf ginger peach, both for iced tea and at night for hot tea. I think someone said upthread that the Harney's chocolate mint (?) is really good. I haven't tried it.

I would definitely try this! I had a sample of some David's Sweet Almond Green tea and I LOVED it. And now they don't sell it anymore.

Sounds fabulous! I love tea. I too have found a "sweet" tea that requires no sugar and I can't drink most any tea without sugar. It's the stash liquorice spice herbal tea. It's amazing, very similar to the Aveda tea.

That sounds fantastic!
I love sweet tea, but don't need the sugar. I'll keep my eye out for this.

Most of Harney & son's teas are fantastic It also a nice family company from NY's Hudson valley ( Dutchess county ) If you're near this area, check out their Harneyfest. It's usually held in August. It's a tent sale and factory tour where you can make your own blend of tea at the end of the tour. We went last year and the deals were awesome. A bag of 50 tea bags (many varieties to choose from including the Hot Cinnamon OP posted) for $5! DH and DS also picked up cases of 24 bottles root beer for $5 that retails for $24 for half that amount. Lots of gift items too.

We buy the 1 lb bags of loose leaf, and we've got the Chocolate Mint, Paris, Wedding and Hot Cinnamon in our cabinet right now. I've had about 25-30 of their teas over the years, and I've never been disappointed with any of them. I really love their white blends, Wedding being my favorite. DH loves their Paris tea. They've started making a green cinnamon, too, which is really lovely. They're all fairly sweet without adding anything. They also make iced tea bags, and their Peach and Black Currant iced teas are wonderful. Peach is a little sweet, Black Current is a little tangy. (Peach holds better if you don't drink it right away, and it's not the same as their peach and ginger hot tea.)

It didn't have much flavor- I was hoping for a hot chocolate taste! I saw the Chocolate at WM too but didn't think that sounded good. Now Chocolate Mint is a totally different story. It will be here today. Can't wait to try it out.

So I decided to wander the tea aisle at my local grocery store this morning. I was able to pick up some The Good Earth Sweet and Spicy tea that bc2ca mentioned. I used to drink that a lot and loved every cup but then my store stopped carrying it and I forgot about looking for it elsewhere. And then, on the top shelf, I see a mostly empty row. I stepped back and could barely see the top of an orange tin all the way in the back. Could it be? I had to enlist the help of a tall man to reach it but I came home with a tin of Hot Cinnamon Sunset. I'll be brewing that shortly. Thanks, Patter.
