Smoky Spice - 52Teas - black tea

Here is this week's featured tea from 52Teas.  It's a black tea and honeybush blend.  I had high hopes for this one, and it fell a little flat.  The description of this tea made it sound like it was a smokier evolution from a chai, however, this didn't taste like a chai to me at all.  Nor did it taste like tea.  It tasted like I steeped my spice cabinet.  It tasted heavily of cloves and cumin, and I am taking serious consideration to taking the rest of the sample and using it as a meat rub.

I know a lot of people that like their teas really savory, so if you're one of those people, give this one a try.  And if you don't like it, it will probably go great on the barbecue!
