This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I have purchased a pound of this loose tea around the holidays for over 10 years. It always satisfies hot or cold.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is my favorite of all the Republic’s holiday blends. When you open the tin and get a whiff of that spicy, fruity tea you are instantly ready for the holidays. Not only is the fragrance wonderful, but the tea itself is out of this world. It’s also visually appealing. You can see the orange peel, juniper berries, and spices. It sets the stage for a cozy evening of watching Christmas movies or listening to Christmas music. If I had one small wish, it would be that this was offered on tea bags as well. I prefer loose leaf, but sometimes it’s nice to have a teabag if you’re away from home.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I have bought RoT selections for several years. The customer service is excellent. The product is the best Tea I have ever tasted.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is a perfect blend of winter flavors. This is my first loose leaf tea.. absolutely love to be able to make it stronger or weaker.. I plan to buy more loose leaf!! The flavors are just outstanding!! I felt I could taste each one.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars The best month of the year is when Republic of Tea brings out their luscious Christmas tea selections. My favorites are Comfort and Joy plus Tea of Good Tidings. It's never to early to get in the spirit.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Tea of Good Tidings is my all-time favorite tea. It can be seasonal so I was disappointed when I tried to order it early summer and found out it was unavailable. Was happy to see it became available in September!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Absolutely delicious Fall/Winter Tea. The lovely blend of Black Tea and all of the different winter fruits is incredible! I can’t wait to for this tea to come back into season!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is my favorite holiday tea. I always buy two for the season. No one else in my family will make loose leaf, so more for me! The black tea is featured without too many extra fussy flavors but still holiday feel.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars I enjoyed this blend, but I would have preferred it to be just a little more pungent with the juniper and cardamom. Maybe it was just a little too balanced, because for me, none of the notes were especially distinguishable. So it was pleasant, but just not noteworthy.
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars This is a weird tea. It tastes like original bubble gum. It is also bitter. It’s more tolerable with sugar alone instead of with cream, but, the “juniper berries, cranberries, and orange peel” made it sound like it would taste like Christmas smells….and it tastes like double bubble. Maybe that’s the clove and almond coming through? Anyway. Not Christmasy, but I bet it could be a good kid’s intro to tea, if they like bubble gum.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This has to be the best tea, I ever had. It is so flavorful and smells delightful. It is like a prize for a well done day. I love it so much.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Delightful holiday flavor! Fruity with a pleasant spice balance. The aroma is so festive and fun, making for a great all around sensory experience.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I just got my order today with Tea of Good Tidings. WOW! what a burst of flavor and aroma. I will order more for Christmas.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I prefer it to Comfort and Joy and will order extra next season.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars We love this seasonal favorite from The Republic of Tea. They don't advertise it as much as they used to, but we buy several tins every winter. I served this for a church Christmas tea party, and the ladies loved it so much I ended up buying several more tins for gifts. The spice blend in this black tea is strong and unique but not overpowering. It definitely puts you in a festive, holiday mood and helps you power through all those last minute things on your to do list.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Look forward to this seasonal offering…a cup of Christmas sure to spread joy and warmth. Recommend stocking up to make it through the year!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I really like this blend, I think it is one of the better ones from Republic of Tea. I like the juniper berries in it. It's one of the few teas I like to drink without having something sweet to eat on the side. It smells up the whole room, which could be a pro or con.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I loved it and bought more
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I look forward to this one all year! This is one of the best blends I've ever had. The fragrance is absolutely to die tor; it smells almost like potpourri, and it retains its flavors in the cup! Full-bodied, it has layers of flavors to enjoy. Fruity, spicy, but not excessively so, I think it's best served with milk and lightly sweetened. It's thoroughly enjoyable, but not usually available year-round, so I stock up when it comes around again!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is the perfect balance of boldness and spice without being a chai. It's also a little bit fruity. It's what I think of when someone says "Christmas tea"
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars While this is a wonderful tea for the holidays, it also makes a fantastic iced tea for the summer.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Republic of tea has the best tea and this whole tea is my favorite
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Every year I look foward to when this tea is finally in stock, because it's the most mellow and delightful cup of Christmas tea out there! It really is my favorite of all of the seasonal teas!
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars I was really looking forward to this tea but I found it lacking. Smells nice but tastes like a standard tea to me—no particularly identifiable flavors. I think my least favorite of the fall/winter seasonal flavors I'be tried
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars For the past ten years, I have bought two bulk bags of Tea of Good Tidings while it is available (it's a time-limited holiday tea). Because I drink it daily, two bags will last me the entire year. I use it for making iced tea throughout the year. It is truly the best iced tea ever. Not only do visitors at my home enjoy it, but I take it in my giant thermos to gatherings outside my home - it is always a hit.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I really like this tea! It has subtle berry and orange flavors and a warm aftertaste. Definitely great for winter
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I ordered the Tea of Good Tidings las year in the tin so that I could try it. I fell instantly in love with it and rationed it, but I brought it out again when the weather turned colder and I was down to only a quarter of a tin. :-( I checked back online I discovered that it is sold in a 1 lb bag. That is a lot of tea!! But I can refill my tin and share the leaves with specials friends, as soon as I find some pretty little tins to put the leaves in. And by the way, this is the first time I've rated 5 kettle I believe.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I look forward to this seasonal tea. It is a warm hug in a mug and just adds a little something special to the fall and winter.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Fantastic flavor, will buy again
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I acquired a cold-brew ice tea pitcher and am enjoying experimenting with various teas to find those that develop a vibrant flavor in the refrigerator overnight. Tea of Good Tidings works very well. Also, I can heat it in the cup in the microwave.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is my absolute favorite Christmas tea! It's a seasonal treat my family always looks forward to. It truly is Christmas in a cup!!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars 25 years I have had Tea of Good Tidings as my number one favorite flavor. This full-bodied tea has a fruity and spicy feel in my mouth that I cannot resist. I sweeten it as well. It is also great for a second steeping. it is also beautiful just to look at all the different ingredients in the blend. It is wonderful as a gift. Sipping in a glass mug or your favorite cup is pure joy in the morning or afternoon.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars I love this tea. It's not overdone with flavors and such and allows the actual tea leaves to shine. The linger is all old world holiday with late season fruits, light spice, and an almost evergreen note.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Another great. This is the second year I have purchased Tea of Good Tidings. I was searching for a good Christmas holiday tea, and just by the description it sounded like what I was looking for. I was not disappointed when I opened the can and took my first smell. I have brewed it cold but my preference is winter evenings, hot, and in front of a fire. It smells and taste of Christmas.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I look forward every year to this tea. It has a wonderful flavor and I enjoy sipping it over the winter - purchased early this year to take advantage of a shipping promotion.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is definitely winter seasonal without an overwhelming emphasis on any specific holiday. The name, "Tea of Good Tidings, is a good holiday neutral name so it can be gifted to anyone who tolerates caffeine.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I drink a lot of tea in general and am mildly obsessed with holiday teas, I've tasted many and this is a top 5. Really wonderful complex flavors. I love the loos tea and seeing those juniper berries, always a very flavorful cup.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I made this first as a hot tea, got distracted and came back to a cold cup ... which I put on ice. LOVED it to the point I prefer it iced. Have to remember to order extra for the months when it's not available.
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars While this tea is not for me, if you enjoy the flavors of a mincemeat pie (without any meat, of course) then this tea is for you.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I look forward to resupplying. I couldn't find it anywhere this winter and it's a family favorite. Never stop making this one, it's perfectly balanced ðŸ™ðŸ’

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars So uplifting on these cold, dreary winter days here in the Midwest. Smells and tastes like the Holiday season. Glad it comes in loose leaf because I tend to make my teas a large mug so this way I can make it a bit stronger. Sipping on a mug of it now and smiling the whole time!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Tea of Good Tidings is a delicious accompaniment to holiday desserts, or just an afternoon cuppa with a plate of cookies.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is a nice winter tea!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea smells heavenly--like Christmas potpourri! It has lovely fruit and floral notes such as orange, cranberry, current, and rose. The flavor is on the lighter side, so I use more than one teaspoon per serving, and I enjoy it on cold winter mornings with a spoonful of honey or raw sugar.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is delicious hot or iced. I drink it hot in its pure form and it's fairly mild, but it's powerful enough to improve a pitcher of plain black iced tea with just a tablespoon.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Admittedly, I missed that this was loosely tea when I bought it. But I managing with the coffee filter for now! It smells lovely, though I use a lot more than one teaspoon per serving, more like one tablespoon to really get the flavor strong.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I look forward every year to buying the Holiday Fruit Blend.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I've tried many Christmas teas made by different companies, and this one is the best. Wonderful flavor, smells great, and I'll drink it all winter. Truly delightful.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is a seasonal tea so I buy 3 pounds of it when it becomes available. By July or August I have to start rationing it so I have enough to last until September when it is available again. This is so addictive, I just love the blend of flavors!
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars The ONLY reason I am giving this tea only 3 stars is bc it's loose. I truly wish it came in tea bags. I hate cleaning out those mesh loose tea holders. Otherwise this is a gorgeous tea! I add sweetened orange slices to it and it becomes magical! Please offer this tea in tea bags!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars First time trying this tea. When I opened the container, the whole kitchen was filled with the most wonderful aroma. Couldn't wait to try it. I really enjoyed the fragrant spices in the tea. Can't wait to have friends over to share it.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I do not buy these teas because I don't want to go through what you need to do with full leaf teas. well I bought this by mistake, I LOVE IT. I already had the things needed to fix the tea. I used the 1 teaspoon first to try the tea. This tea has a flavor I love. I would buy this tea again but I may have to wait for a year since it is a holiday tea.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars The fruit flavors blend beautifully. Smooth blend 0f berries, rose petals. Orange peel & cardamon add a refreshing lift
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Most Christmas teas are chai's. This one is different. It has a lot of nice things in it, but all I taste is black tea and Juniper Berries. And it's really nice! I will continue to buy for the holidays.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I wasn't sure if I would like this tea because A. I'm not a big flavored tea person and B. I'm not a but black tea person. This tea blew me away. I was looking at the ingredients and it reminded me of some traditional tonics or even some kind of bitter alcohol. The smell out the can positively reeks of Christmas mornings. A bit smokey, resinous, a bit sweet. It smells like pot pourri and it taste like it to but not in a bad way. It has a piney taste, and kind of a dry tannic bite. A bit of sheen from the orange peel, all wrapped up together by a mellower black tea. Kind of reminds me of gin or a unsweetened jaegermeister. It is defiantly a holiday drink and wouldn't drink it in the summer time, it's a bit to much. I normally don't add sugar but this is pretty good with sugar, sugar gives it a almost complex cola taste. It has a spicy aftertaste too that lingers in the throat. It is very mature, and I find it masculine in a way, almost like a tea version of Polo Green cologne. Overall this is a winner and I will enjoy it every holiday season
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I tell you, I first encountered this tea in the winter of 2011 and I have not bought nor requested any other tea as religiously since. I drink it every single day year round and stock up on it annually (as it's only usually available Sept. -Jan./Feb.). This tea with vanilla creamer is DIVINE! I tell you, if you want to feel all the "feels" of the holiday season, this tea does it for you. I just can't drink anything else in the morning.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is by far the best tea I have ever tasted!. I look forward to stocking up every October when it is available! Good quality tea! Great balance of flavors!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is the only holiday tea that stands apart from all others of every brand. All holiday teas are some blend or other of "sugar & spice and everything nice" and very few stand out. Tea of Good Tidings brings together, not only the sugar and spice, but the entire ambience of Christmas including the Christmas tree and candles! It's a total immersion of every sense associated with Christmas. We do the first brew every year on Thanksgiving, and it ushers in the holidays with that very first sip. Several years ago we owned a tearoom, and this was our most popular tea during the holiday season.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Although it is a seasonal tea I buy enough to enjoy all year round. It has the best aroma.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is just available from Sept until it runs out. This is my favorite morning tea year around but especially good on a frosty morning! I usually buy 3 pounds each year to make sure I can start every day with it. The flavor is unique with just a hint of winterberries.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I have been looking for a Republic of Tea black tea with black currant for a while... one for hot tea, not iced... and without a lot of the spices. I really love the taste!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars A cup of this tea, cats in lap and book in hand for perfect day! Love the hints of spice and fruit. Great with or without sweetener.

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Love this tea. Flavors are full and satisfying A great cuppa
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is so different from all the other's, so many flavors, the aroma and the taste and hot or cold, it is just so good. I add a bit of sweeting to my tea but this tea doesn't need much at all. I can't put my finger on what it is I am tasting but it is all good. I just never realized you could consume juniper berries and so please you can. It is the perfect blend of orange peel, cranberries, cloves, rose petals, almonds, vanilla, black currants, blackberry leaves and cardamom seeds oh and tea that you will ever have. So glad I ordered it, so happy to share it with family and friends.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love this tea. It's exactly what I was hoping it would be. Fruity, warm (it taste, not temperature), deliciously fragrant, and mild.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I wish this tea were available all year. I enjoy the combination of fruit and spice. Since my husband bought me one of the teacups with a mesh infuser, and I don't need to hunt for my teaball, I've been enjoying loose tea more often. This is a favorite.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Lovely flavors! Fantastic chilled and makes a beautiful cocktail with a little brandy added. Cheers!

This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars It reminds me of childhood Christmases. I want to put it in gift baskets when it is available again.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I thought I try this tea based on the description & reviews and I'm glad I did. The blend really does taste like a warm, cozy evening in a cup. The fruits are selected with winter in mind & the added spices just aren't your typical cinnamon spices, but there's a tiny hint of nutty-pine to give this tea it's own uniqueness. I like that it's a loose leaf tea, so I can add more or less as I wish. This will defiantly become a holiday tradition!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I have been a lover of Republic of Tea products for a long while so i was eager to try this tea for the holiday season. It is fantastic with a fruity spicey flavor that i can't get enough of. I went back to the store and purchased 2 more containers so I won't run out. It says limited edition. Please continue to bring this tea back in season. I love it!

This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love this tea. It has a rich, earthy flavor which I find very satisfying as the days grow shorter and the night time temperatures begin to dip. Because this is a seasonal tea, I decided to buy it in bulk this year so I can enjoy it all year long.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I have waited years for this limited edition tea to return! It is a nice blend of fruit, spices, and black tea.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I tried this based on the reviews and I love this tea - it is my absolute favorite caffeinated tea. It does have - as another reviewer complained - a bit of a bubble-gummy scent, but I like it and the flavor is lovely. I drink the loose leaf variety and occasaionally mix in some & Cardomon as well. I buy it in bulk and drink it all year.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars its quite difficult for me to find a good blend of tea. but this. oh my... nothing can compare! I love adding a little bit of honey. i have this every month of the year but mostly in winter. its unique aroma & taste gets me every time, like love at first sight but in this case, love at first sip. ^__^ i love most definitely love this! buying bulk is the best idea
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I drink this tea year round thanks to the bulk refills offered. It is one of my favorite blends. I have to agree with one of the above comments, it does have a rather strong bubble gum aroma, but I find the smell dissipates with brewing and doesn't overpower the tea. It has a strong black tea flavor with just enough of a fruit taste to be pleasing.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I found this tea several years ago at a specialty grocery and learned, to my dismay, that it was a seasonal product. I since discovered the Republic of Tea website and took advantage of the bulk refill bag. I love this tea year-round. I find it the perfect blend of black tea, fruit and spice. I sometimes add a little honey (especially if I'm battling a winter cold), but often enjoy it plain. A teapot full of this tea in front of the fireplace will make any cold, gloomy afternoon feel better.
This shopper rated the product 2 out of 5 stars This tea sounded so great based on the reviews and ingredient list. But I was so disappointed to brew my first cup and all I could taste was that artificial bubble gum taste. I can't place what ingredient is doing that!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is a wonderful, warm tasting tea. Smells like a winter fruit. It tastes so good. The only thing I can say is that it is a wonderful blend of tea, fruit, and berries. Wonderful flavor. Great holiday tea.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars My favorite tea for the whole year for the last 10 years. Try to order enough to last all year I never succeed.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love tea and have quite a collection from various companies. Hands down, Tea of Good Tiding is the best. I wish I could give it a higher rating. I first bought it about 10 years ago and LOVED it. When I went to order more in January, it was all gone and I found out I'd have to wait until October to get more! It was awful. I started tea shopping, hoping to find a tea that was close in flavor to Tea of Good Tidings. No luck. Nothing came close. As soon as Tea of Good Tidings was available again, I placed my order. A big order. I didn't want to run out again! Every year since then I make sure to stock up as soon as it's available. I drink it year round. It's the best!!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I took a chance and bought this because the reviews suggested it was spicy and delicious. It exceeded my expectations. It's a great tea and it really needs to be available all year round.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars To me this is the spice caravan in a cup - makes me think of ancient Persia & international trade routes on the Silk Road. Rich, deep black tea filled to brimming with magnificent fruits & spices - takes me away like a world travel. Saturated leisure in a cup - must taste to enjoy fully!!!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars A couple weeks ago I stumbled upon an old tin of this that had been a gift probably over 10 years ago! It still smelled good and the tea was delicious. Since there were only a couple of servings left, I found your website and ordered more. The new tin came a couple of days ago, and although the OLD tea was delicious, the fresh new tea was even better! Such a nice wintry flavor. I'm sure this one won't be around for 10 years - I'm actually thinking I should have bought TWO!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I hadn't had this tea in a couple years and had forgotten just how delicious and aromatic it is!! I look forward to a cup first thing in the morning during these winter months to perk me up even when the temps drop below zero! The fruity scent and flavor helps me think warm thoughts!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I really love this tea. It makes a rich and satisfying cup. The only thing that I wish is that it came it bags as well as loose leaf. There are mornings where I would love to have a cup, but feel too rushed to get out my tea strainer. Also, I could just take a bag or two to work with me to make after I get there. Probably wouldn't taste quite the same though.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is a black tea that I have been drinking for the last three or four years. I was excited to be able to order the bulk bags online to last through the year. As another reviewer mentioned, I find that having a bag for a while actually enhances the flavor. Wonderful tea and not overpowering at all.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Delightfully flavored black tea - love the spice & fruit blend. I'll be bummed when my can runs out, and I have to wait for next year for more. Should be a year-round flavor.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love this tea. It is my all time favorite tea and I try to keep enough on hand to have it for special occasions.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Fruity and Spicy, just the right combination! Smells as amazing as it tastes!!!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars My whole family looks forward to sharing this tea at Christmas. The fruit flavor is not overpowering to the taste of the tea.
This shopper rated the product 3 out of 5 stars The smell is amazing, but it wasn't as full bodied as I had hoped. My favorites are typically black ginger peach and blackberry sage, but to me this one is pretty watery for a black tea. I had to use 2x as much to get a strong, not bitter cup. I don't dislike it, but I am not in love. It'll be fun for Christmas and might even be good to add to spice cakes for culinary applications.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars The fragrance and flavor yield feelings of comfort and warmth and peace. It's intended to be a Christmas tea but I like it all year. It has a soothing, fragrance of a collection of Christmas scents which render a wonderful flavor.
This shopper rated the product 4 out of 5 stars I received this tea as an early Christmas gift from my son and his wife. I loved the smell and couldn't wait to taste it. It is a very comforting to sit and relax with a cup of this tea. I love it!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love this tea. It is my year round favorite. I always buy extra bags of bulk tea so that I will not run out before it becomes available again.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love this! It has great body and is wonderfully spicy.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I enjoyed this flavor combination so much that I ordered the bulk bag. It is a great holiday treat!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I can't remember how I ever made it through winter without my favorite hot beverage!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars When I first got this tea, I wasn't sure I'd like it because the smell of cloves is SO overpowering, and those types of flavors seem to dominate any blend. I was very pleasantly surprised at my first sip - the other flavors come through just as well! This is definitely a holiday keeper!
This shopper rated the product 1 out of 5 stars I hate to be the only bad reviewer, but I can't taste this tea! I bought the full leaf version. I've tried different amounts of tea leaves, I've tried different steeping times and temperatures, I've tried it with and without milk and sweetener. Honestly, I get a lot more flavor out of store bought tea bags. Disappointed.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Wait what. This tea is probably the best thing i've ever had. I found it at Crate and Barrel and was planning on giving it to my mom but never did. Thank god. It's amazing. It sort of tastes like hookah? but drinkable? It's crazy. Get it
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Definitely a spiced tea, but as the heading states it is excellently balanced. The scent fills the kitchen when I prepare it and it is a joy to sit and hold it close, enjoying the aroma almost as much as the actual tea itself! This is one I will buy again!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This has been my all-time favorite tea for about five years. It has clove and citrus flavors without being overpoweringly sweet. I've found, however, that this tea tastes even better as it ages. The just-released tea's aroma is a bit too floral for my liking, but over time this fades away and the overall flavor of the tea deepens. So I bought an extra pound several years ago and kept one in the cupboard until the next year's batch came out, and now I buy a fresh pound every winter to lay away and drink the aged tea. (This is admittedly taking the tea past the expiration date, but I have never had a problem!) This tea is absolutely worth the effort!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I love this tea. It has been my favorite way to start the day for some time now. It's hard to get that holiday feeling in Florida, but this deliciously fragrant tea does the trick.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I was first introduced to Tea of Good Tidings during the holidays of 2005. I drink this wonderful blend every morning during cool weather. I have never tired of the taste over the past seven years. It is one of my favorites.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea will definitely be part of my holiday refreshments. Spicy but not overpowering and the cardamon gives it the perfect 'seasoning.'
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is a wonderful blend that tastes great.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is delightful, and such a pleasure sipping it, not just at holidays, but good anytime. One of my favorites.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I always buy a tin, plus a pound in bulk, and sometimes two pounds. It is THE BEST of all the wintry fruit teas I have ever tasted. In fact, I don't like most of those at all, except for Rep's other Xmas teas, which are to the elves as TOGT is to Santa Claus. This beverage has become part of Christmas for me, by now. One year I ordered too late and I had to cope; really missed it! Recently it came available at our co-op health food store, so I "sneaked" a second tin for this season! It is refreshing, yet full flavored and full bodied, enough so that I find the egg nog and hot cocoa and other "fat" drinks less tempting. And it is not expensive. THANK YOU, Republic! Happy and Merry!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is the best tea I have ever had-I found it in a health food store 10 yrs ago and have been searching for it ever since. Facebook reaquainted us and I can finally enjoy this wonderful cup of Christmas again!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea says Christmas to me. I have been buying it for several years in both the loose leaf and tea bag forms. Most enjoyable!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Very delicious and hits the spot. It does have a Christmas taste, if Christmas had a taste. The comfort and joy tea is just as delicious and great flavor. thank you so much for your terrific products. I have tried some of the other teas that were recommended along with Good Tidings.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I have shared this with my wife and friends and they all love the tea! I am always excited to be able to buy this blend around the holidays since I don't like fruity tasting teas. This is a perfect blend of berries, and black tea. I wish I could buy it year round.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars We love this tea! Steep for 4 minutes and it's perfect. For tightwads, steep in a filter cup or ball, pull out and rebrew another pot (steep 5 min.). This is what we serve throughout the holidays and our company always sighs with pleasure. (It's also grand on a snow day with a fire on the grate and a Jane Austen novel!)
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Several years ago, I bought this tea by "accident" and I have loved it ever since. As with most teas, it's a bit bitter if over steeped. 3-5 mins is perfect! This is bold tea, with a wonderfully robust overtones. I love this tea so much, it's be become a holiday tradition.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I received my first small container 1 year ago as a gift. It was so good I looked for more. Unable to get more at that time I decided that when it would be available next I would treat myself to a 1 pound bag. This tastes too good not to have all year long. I'm not a strong tea drinker so I don't steep it long, I also drink about 8 cups of tea a day and mix in other flavors throughout the course of the day. This is wonderful. It is fairly priced and arrived very quickly after I had placed my order. I'm very happy with this and will be back for more!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars I order 6 pounds of this to make it through the year. I wish this one was available year round. It is strong without being bitter. Great substance to it.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This tea is just delightful -- it's fruity and spicy, but in a subtle, delicate way. It's light and happy tasting, if you know what I mean. :-)
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Excellent Tea! This is the second year we have bought a pound and will purchase another very soon. We learned last year that two pounds is necessary to make it through the year.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is my favorite tea of all time. Since it is only available for a short time, I buy a huge bag and savor it all year long.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars For several years now, I anxiously await October 1 and the opportunity to purchase a pound of Tea of Good Tidings. I share it with several of the ladies at work, and we are all hooked! The aroma and the taste bring good tidings every morning. Thank you!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Just poured my first cup and it is marvelous -- everything a winter tea should be! From the first scent upon opening the tin, I knew this tea... I knew it from years ago (now over 15 years ago) when I lived in Germany. This is remarkably like my favourite Christmas tea, which could be found in almost every tea shop in any town in Germany... and they do like their winter tea blends! I've been looking for this, hoping for this, tea ever since. It is perfect by the fire, with good company. Now if only it would snow!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars An excellent tea that I'm very glad I purchased. The aroma when you open the tin is amazing, and the taste doesn't let down either. It's a perfect balance between the tea and hints of each little flavor present. Make sure to take in a deep breath of the steam right before each sip to get the most enjoyment.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is THE tea to which I look forward every Christmas. It is the perfect blend of tea and all the other flavors which bring to mind Christmas seasons of long ago, gathered around the fire with the snow blowing outside. A bit of magic in your cup.
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars Wonderfully flavorful and distinct tea. My all-time favorite! Sadly, it is only available in October or November (it sells out quickly!) I have to remember to order 2 or 3 pounds to last me the entire year. I missed one year and had to ration it - never again!
This shopper rated the product 5 out of 5 stars This is my favorite tea, hands down. Full-bodied, sweet and spicy, both complex and balanced. I just wish it was fair trade/organic, and offered year-round!
