I am not a tea fan. Black, green, white, red, whatever. It tastes like wet leaves to me. If I'm feeling sick, I will sometimes drink a mint tisane, no tea just mint. But this stuff is great. The contents are a professional secret, but there's definitely clove and cinnamon and citrus peel involved. Take care with handling and storing, because the oils are strong and penetrating, but if you want something to kick you into action on a rainy day, or to clear your sinuses when you're feeling stuffy then this is the one.
