Details: This is one of our oldest flavored tea blends. John Harney developed it in the early 1980s. Over the decades, its popularity has only grown, and now it is our most popular tea. People love its combination of strong spices and sweetness. And since there are no sugars (we tested it), it is safe for everyone to enjoy.

Dry Leaves: Chinese black tea is the base of this tea, so the leaves are dark brown. There are pieces of cinnamon bark and orange peel covered with cinnamon dust.

Liquor: The liquor of this tea is medium brown with orange hues.

Aroma: This tea has a very strong aroma of spices and citrus.

Flavors: Wow! This tea is one of our most flavorful (and popular) teas, combining orange with natural cinnamon, natural and artificial cinnamon flavors, and cloves.

A delicious blend of spicy and warm flavors. So comforting when you just want something that feels like a warm hug.

This is my go-to tea. So flavorful! It's like eating a cinnamon roll without the guilt.

We drink it every day. It's fabulous both hot and iced, and the first tea I absolutely love without adding any sugar.

Four Decades of Tradition

In 1983, John Harney set out to make tea an everyday luxury, hand-blending his first teas in the basement of his country inn in Salisbury, Connecticut.
Three generations later, we still follow his one rule: only buy and blend teas that make us smile. Today we blend more than 300 of them from a home base in Millerton, New York, where the third generation is adding blends of its own.

The Tea Customers Come Back For

Hot Cinnamon Spice is one of our defining blends. John Harney blended it in the company's early years from three kinds of cinnamon, orange peel, and sweet cloves, with no added sugar anywhere in it. It tastes sweet because the spices are doing the talking. Decades later it is still the tea most people discover us through, and still the one we are asked about most.

How to Enjoy It

A great cup of tea is a simple thing to make, but it's the small details that make it worth it. Good water, a proper boil, a few minutes of patience. None of it takes much, and together they turn an everyday cup into something you look forward to.

Water

Start with fresh spring or filtered water. It's nearly everything in the cup, and even a tea this bold takes on whatever's in the tap.

Hot

With its black tea base, you'll want to use boiling water (212ºF). Steep 5 minutes so the cinnamon, orange, and cloves have time to come forward.

1 sachet per 12 oz mug
1 teabag per 8 oz cup
1 teaspoon loose (2.5 g) per 8 oz cup

Iced

Brew it double strength, twice the tea for the same water, then pour straight over a tall glass of ice. It holds its spice as it dilutes instead of washing out.
