I bought this along with a few others for my son for christmas as he likes them.. Easy gift :-)
Wonderful cinnamon favor, great first thing in the morning.
I'd been wanting to try this and was glad I did. It's good by itself, but is also good mixed with other flavors. So far my favorite mix was 1 bag of this, 1 bag of cherry, and 1 bag of plain black tea steeped in about 3 cups of water.
This is a family favorite!
This is my 3rd order of Cinnamon Plum tea. Full flavored and aromatic. It is a staple in my teas ??.
This one is just ok! I like the flavor, but it's not as fruit forward as I would like.
Great flavor and aroma. One of my favorites so far
I bought this tea and it is fabulous! Sweet taste of cinnamon and the plum balances it.
Cinnamon Plum is one of my five favorites and I reorder before running out.
I am on the second tin of this tea because it is a satisfying blend of cinnamon and plum that I enjoy in the middle of the day. Very bright taste. Well done ROT.
I always ensure I have plenty of this in stock. It is the perfect blend of sweet & spicy. If I ever can't decide what. I want to sip, this is my first go-to. Love, Love, Love!!!
This is one of the more authentic teas. It say cinnamon and plum, and you clearly GET a lovely, strong blend of cinnamon and plum. Definitely recommend.
This is one of my husband’s favorites!
Smells delicious. More fruity, than spicy. I want to have this one all year long.
I have been enjoying iced cinnamon plum tea for several years! A jug of it lives in my fridge at all times so I can enjoy it daily. I've introduced it iced and hot to several friends & family who all agree this delicious tea is a huge jump ahead of plain black tea.
Soooo good for fall! I love the mixture of cinnamon and plum. I add a splash of cream also. One of my favorites!
Love it.
This is the best mix of tea leaves and flavorings that I have ever had. Love this!
The flavor of this is very good, but I don't really taste the plum.
Never thought of these together .. can't imagine them apart now..
The plum flavor isn't too strong and the cinnamon isn't overwhelming. The two flavors blend well and it has easily become my favorite tea thus far!
My favorite for more than 20 years
Glad I ordered this tea, it has a great fall vibe.
Love this tea.
I bought it for my sister and it's one of her favorites
Cinnamon flavor yes plum flavor not so much. I don’t get many fruity notes from this tea mostly just cinnamon black tea. If you look on the label there actually isn’t any plum in the tea.
Great flavor
This is a nice full-bodied tea for a chilly autumn or winter morning.
Fantastic tea! I love the cinnamon flavor, coupled with the plum! I always look forward to it in my rotation.

I am simply addicted to this tea. So far I've only had it iced but it's my new favorite tea! I'm ordering a refill now because I go through it so fast.
Very happy with this tea. Both flavors are pleasant and do not overwhelm each other. Love it! I will be drinking this daily.
This was a second purchase, and I bought 2 bags of refills, so you know I really enjoy it. It’s a very flavorful autumn/winter tea without the often-overused pumpkin pie spices. Just good black tea with dollop of plum, but not too much. Very well-balanced. Yum!
I need the cinnamon to shine more to get 5 stars but it's an enjoyable tea nonetheless!
I like my spice teas to be spicy, so I was a bit underwhelmed by this tea. As a smooth black tea, it gets 5 stars. As a spice tea, I can only give it 4 stars.
This has become my go-to tea. The plum balances the black tea whizlethe cinnamon is not overpowering. Very drinkable all day long!
Nice balance between plum and cinnamon.
The subtle cinnamon and plum flavors complement each other nicely! Not too fruity and not too cinnamony. I enjoy this tea hot first thing in the morning!
This tea is FUN. It's got a little tang, just enough, and a lot of that gorgeous black-tea freshness and sass. Tending to prefer strong tea, I make a jug of this with about 14-15 tea bags and just let it steep for several hours. Unsweetened over ice, it makes a great morning wakeup, a good "sippin' whiskey" during the workday, and a lovely grace note after dinner.
Love the combination of spicey and sweet with the cinnamon and plum. A very "cozy" vibe tea.
I love cinnamon and love plum, both on their own, and this is a beautiful marriage of the two!
I have tried A LOT of tea over the years. This is my all-time favorite of all teas. It is perfectly balanced with the sweetness of the plum and hint of spice from the cinnamon. This tea makes me happy. I can drink it any time of day or night.
This is a repurchase as I enjoyed it so much. I do add a touch of honey
I've always enjoyed this one. It was my first favorite.
This is a great tea for cinnamon lovers. The plum balances the sharpness nicely so the cinnamon shines through without being bitter or overwhelming. My preferred brewing is loose tea made strong and served with milk. Delicious.
I can remember my mother drinking this blend 20+ years ago. That memory spurred my Republic of Tea collection. I have over twenty ROT teas but this one is my go to all winter long. It's flavorful and warms the soul. A little sugar really brings out the flavors and guests always ask where it came from. Highly recommended.
I have begin my mornings with 1 or 2 cups of Cinnamon Plum black tea for several years. It is my go to tea. It is just the right blend for a comforting , soothing start to my day.
I love cinnamon, so this was a logical choice to try and I do really enjoy it
I really like this tea. Not as tart as I thought it could be, else it woulda been 5/5
Has great flavor on its own, but I sometimes like to make a pot blending with Vanilla Almond black tea.
Love this tea. Reminds me of pie (though I never had a plum pie), imparts a warm, cozy feeling to a cold winter afternoon.
I enjoyed this one. I knocked it a little in the overall score as I thought the fruit came through more as a generic dark fruit than plum specifically. Not sure if I'll reorder this one or not, but I will enjoy it while I have it.
I love this tea hot or cold everyday! All other teas and flavors pale in comparison. I always have to have it on hand. I hope you always keep this tea in your catalogue. Cinnamon Plum tea is the best.
I bought this when someone said it wasn't a good dupe for the Bates Tea and maybe it's because i ran out so long ago, but I double bagged this beauty and topped it off with some oat milk and it was close enough to make me very, very happy. So glad to be enjoying this plummy deliciousness again.
This is one of my favorites for earlier in the day. I like to sip on it as I run my morning errands. People have even complemented me on the smell of this tea.
Honestly, I was a bit skeptical at first because I'm not the biggest fan on plum. But I love cinnamon. So I took the risk. I'm so glad I did! It's not too strong, and so good with honey.
This was my first order of Cinnamon Plum--I'm not disappointed. Its a nice strong cinnamon with an undertone of plum. It's a nice comforting & well-rounded tea.
I purchased this years ago and gave it away, so repurchased it recently and then bought the refill tea bags to go in the tin. This is wonderful with a bit of honey in it - that really brings out and blends the flavors. It's one of the teas I have at work to help destress.
Julie always wants to have some of this tea on hand. So I make sure she always does.
This tea is just ok for me. It smells divine, but I was expecting more of a Cinnamon Plum flavor when I drank it. I had been wanting to try this and glad I had the opportunity through Tea of the Month club, but it's not a favorite. If you are looking for a more mild flavor, this might be for you.
A nice black tea with hint of plum and cinnamon to give it a little sweetness. I enjoy it first thing in the morning on my drive in to work.
One of my all-time favorites from any tea company. Sweet rich plum fruit flavor meets warming spice of cinnamon, in a flavorful black tea. No flavor overpowers the other, well-balanced and delicious hot or over iced with a touch of sweetener. I buy this one again and again! Highly recommend!!!
One of my go-to favorite teas. Just love the combination of flavors. This is a staple in my house.
My husband bought me this tea for the first time in 1998 and it is still my favorite today.
This is one of my favorite teas! It's a perfect blend of a little tang and sweetness. Great for an everyday warm up tea.
I found I was very low on my supply of Cinnamon Plum Tea (the only tea I drink!!) So I hurriedly ordered the Bulk refill amount! It arrived very promptly and I am enjoying every cup!
Cinnamon Plum is one of my favorites. It has a great aroma and an all-around warm taste.
I love Cinnamon Plum; so warm, so cozy, just plain, but especially with cream and sugar for me. I have made many people feel welcome and cared for with Cinnamon Plum tea
I liked this tea but it is a different flavor combination. Definitely taste more Plum than Cinnamon. Nice tea for a winter morning, served hot!
This tea is sweet and spicy. I really like it in winter because I feel warm all over after drinking it.
This tea is one of my favorite morning drinks. I tried it because I love the Downton Abbey Bates' Tea so much and it's no longer available. The DA tea was just perfect, but this Cinnamon Plum is a close second. The sweet, fruity flavor of the plum is the primary flavor for me. Unfortunately, I don't really taste the cinnamon. Overall, it's a nice rich, robust, and slightly sweet black tea. I drink it hot with a little honey and milk. I think it would be lovely over ice as well. I like it so much that I will be buying a bulk order next time.
This tea reminds me of my mom's plum cobbler. Every time I drink it warm memories of good food and family fill my head and heart.
This tea has the flavors of cinnamon, plum, currants, elderberry and smooth black tea to make a special treat, but iit falls short on total flavor, because it lacks strength and flavor intensity. I strep 2 bags per cup to better enjoy this tea.
Was looking for a black tea for my stash and this is a nice balance of cinnamon and fruit. Good hot or cold.
I really enjoy this tea. I can't say what I was expecting when I thought of cinnamon and plum, but this tea is truly one of my favorites. It's balanced and is something that brings me comfort and happiness at the end of a long day. Loving the cinnamon plum!
This is one of my favorite teas.
I bought this tea looking for something that tastes similar to a limited edition store brand tea. It doesn't taste like that tea but I really enjoy it. I was looking for some spicy fruity teas and this one is very good, has a really nice mild flavor.
It's like drinking a warm cinnamon plum pie. It tastes similar to the plum pudding without all the sugar. And for some reason the bags taste better than the loose leaf version. Would definitely recommend.
With its just right combination of subtle spice and juicy, ripe fruit, this alluringly aromatic tea is plum perfection!!! Especially warming on a cold winter's day, the not-overpowering black tea provides a gorgeous counterbalance to the festive flavors that are so reminiscent of the beloved Yuletide plum pudding. Although lacking in a distinct vanilla note, this tea is still a tasty treat for the tastebuds of those who wish to enjoy the suggestion of a time-honored Christmas tradition more than one day per year!!!!
this is so-so. it is not my favorite but its a nice black tea. the plum is faint and so is the cinnamon. wouldn't buy again.
This has a very light fruit flavor with a bit of spice. The plum and cinnamon balance themselves nicely in this blend. It's a refreshing tea to enjoy throughout the day.
This tea is the first cup I enjoy every morning! It is strong but not bitter and has a wonderful full body flavor.
It was ok. My son likes it
This has a light cinnamon flavor, not overpowering. I could also taste the plum flavor. I enjoy it best hot. One of my knew favorites.
I got this tea for the fall? holiday season because of the cinnamon and second the plum. A pretty great taste and worth having. Not a strong enough cinnamon taste that I though it would have. I love trying new teas.
This is a nice tea for cinnamon lovers, like me. It would benefit from more plummy flavor,
Years and years ago my sister claimed this as her tea. Because she loved me, she sent me a tin and it has been a favorite of mine also. The cinnamon gives a zing to the plum flavor just as my sister gave zing to my life. She is not with me anymore but sipping a cup of this delicious tea brings back many good memories.
I love this tea and drink several cups every day. Great with everything! Terrific flavor.
Frankly, I was a tad disappointed with my first cup of this tea -- I wanted more cinnamon flavour, but with a teaspoon of Splenda, it's pretty good. I don't care for it as my first morning cuppa, but it's fine a bit later in the morning especially if I want a little fruity tea flavour.
It's a wonderful site to order tea from and they have a excellent variety
I taste the black tea first. Cinnamon came in a bit later. Plum not recognized. Has a harsh flavor to me. Rate it a 6 out of 10.
The tea is good. Even if it wasn't, I would still buy it because of the environmental packaging. But some improvements are needed: 1) The can and round tea bags are great, but there must be a way to seal the can without the plastic ring. 2) Even if it means giving up profit, Republic of Tea should drop the capsules and sips - these are for eco-criminals only! 3) All that "wellness" and "beauty" and "metabolism" stuff is nonsense. Just stick to tasty tea.
I thought this would have the flavor of cinnamon but I could barely smell it let alone taste it
I went all in and bought the bulk bag of this tea, since it was said to be the closest flavor to the discontinued Downton Abbey tea (Plum pudding which was amazing...!) well I brewed a few cups of this cinnamon plum and just didn't taste much other than a faint cinnamon flavor. I steeped it longer and tried less water but the flavor was just not there. I'm very grateful for ROT's generous return policy, as I just couldn't see trying to enjoy this flavorless year. I probably would have kept it, had the black tea be somewhat strong but it just tasted weak overall. I guess I'll stick with some of my other favs.
Plum flavor with a hint of cinnamon. One doesn't over take the other, perfect blend.
I really enjoy this tea. It has a nice fruity flavor to it and a medium cinnamon essence. I can drink this with or without sweetener and be completely satisfied.
This tea is amazing for a cold winter day. It has a clear cinnamon flavor to it that doesn't even need any sweetener. I don't detect a lot of plum, but this is still one of my new favorites!
Love this flavor for winter!
Cinnamon Plum has always been my favorite although I haven't had a chance to try it lately I'm hoping it is as good as I remember. I also enjoy Vanilla Almond to treat myself. I was especially happy to take advantage of free shipping offer.
Perfect fall sip. Blends the warmth of cinnamon with the slightly sweet, slightly tangy plum flavor that lingers at the end.
The aroma is so inviting and the taste is delicious! It's a big treat. Perhaps make it in decaf so I could drink it more often?
I had tried a sample of the "Downton Abbey Bates' tea" (different from the Bates' berry tea) but found their tea was discontinued, when I tried to order it. So I asked & was told by the Republic of Tea adviser the Cinnamon Plum was the closest. When you first open it, the strongest aroma is that of cinnamon, but once made, it is a much more evenly balanced set of flavors (including elderberry & sloeberry). It is a little like a "Russian tea" with nuances of cinnamon & clove and maybe a hint of citrus, but you taste the plum and the berries as well. The difference with the former Bates' tea is the lack of vanilla. i strongly advocate you try sweetening it with a French Vanilla (stevia). I did also find I preferred it with a touch of milk and it turns into a luscious sweet dessert = like a plum & berry pudding (but with almost calories). A GREAT option for diabetics - (who miss sugary desserts) or those giving them up to loose weight
Not the first time that I have ordered this tea and I'm sure that it will not be my last. There's just something about that warm, cinnamon-y fruity taste that I just have always loved. I actually drink it in the evening. My favorite.
Wonderful taste, better aroma!
I love the cinnamon spice in almost everything but with the plum and black tea, it's over the top!
Very nice round smooth flavor with big notes of Bergamot.
I remember discovering Republic of Tea in college. I really loved the Vanilla Almond, Blackberry Sage, and Cinnamon Plum. I hadn't had any of the latter in a long time and something about it now send like it's changed over the years. It might just be me, but I remember this tea being more earthy and fuller bodied. This last batch was more floral and had stronger berry notes then the rich plum and spicy cinnamon flavors of the past. Although this is not one of my favorites anymore, thankfully there are several more that keep my cup filled with healthy and delicious tea!
This will be a 'go to' drink when I need a pick me up.
I bought it because I was intrigued by the name. I'll buy it again because it is great tea.
This is like taking a bunch of cinnamon candies, putting them in hot water, and drinking it. That's all it tasted like to me. I was hoping for plum to be the star, with some cinnamon aftertones, but the plum is totally lost for me. So, great news if you love cinnamon and cinnamon candies! Bad news if your hoping for plum tea. Not re-purchasing. It was not what I expected at all!
It's very good but to me the Bates tea was the best
My first purchase of tea from this company. Not so much spicey ,just a hint and the plum isn't over powering .it's just the right balance. I sweetened with a bit of stevia. Perfect!. Would recommend this to anyone to try. It would probably make an awesome iced tea too.
I love it! The combination of flavors is perfect.
Just enough cinnamon for spice and plum for yummmm
Love the tea with a spoonful of honey to add sweetness and bring out the flavors. Didn't really enjoy it as much without honey But is still delicious. Bought it as a spur of the moment decision
Very tasty, I have ordered Cinnamon Plum a few times. Been a Republic of Tea drinker and gift giver for more years than I will admit. Do wish it came in decaf though. Part of the reason I purchased it was the special deal of spending a certain amount and not having to pay shipping since I live across the U.S. from Republic of Tea now.
Cinnamon Plum is a perfect warmer-upper cup in the winter. The fruit taste is not cloying nor the cinnamon overwhelming—just right.
I love sipping on this tea in the winter. The flavor is so soothing. Great way to calm after a difficult work day
Loved it! Will buy again!
I just now am trying the Cinnamon Plum Tea as I am typing this review. I really do like it. I don't even have to add sugar, which is a good thing because I am trying to do away with sugar, and it is very tasteful, I would definitely buy it again. The cinnamon is more prominent with a hint of plum.
Cinnamon Plum is my go to winter tea. The fruit brings hope for summer in the cold & the spice is warming too.
This is my first tin of this flavor, I is destined to become a favorite!
I drink this tea in the morning and it is delicious. The cinnamon & plum are perfect together.
This is not a strong black tea.
Hadn't had Cinnamon Plum in some time. Decided to order a tin. I'm sure enjoying it and sharing it with friends. It's a refreshing and comforting blend.
I went out on a limb and bought a tin based on the reviews and they were right on the money! This is definitely a tea worth trying!
It's the only tea I drink. Love it hot or iced, day or night. The now I can relax tea!
I had not seen this flavor before. It intrigued me so I had to try it. It was everything I expected it to be. It is a very wonderful flavor for tea.
Brewed fresh and poured over ice, this is the best iced tea I have ever tasted, with a crisp cinnamon freshness and a lovely aftertaste. Outstanding!
Out of all the hundreds and hundreds of teas in grocery stores and specialty shops this tea is the only blend of cinnamon and plums I have found. It is my very favorite and I drink a cup or 2 or 3 everyday. Taste, aroma, and comfort all in one little tea bag!
I don't drink coffee, but do love my tea's. The Cinnamon Plum is my all time favorite. I started out years ago drinking it when I could easily find it in stores. Now I order it by the large bag (250 tea bags) a couple of times a year. I've got two grandboys (young) who LOVES "Nonna's hot tea", and expect to have a cup with me whenever they come. I can drink it in the morning, or in the evening - plain, with some Sugar in the Raw, or with creamer - it depends on what mood I'm in. Very pleasing taste!
Still my favorite tea and drink it exclusively. Have shared my preference and I have convinced my friends that this tea is far superior to Tetley or Salada and they agree!
I found the favors of is tea to be mellow. You taste & smell the cinnamon initially. The flavor of the plum is lasting on your palate. I like a cup in the afternoon prior to dinner.
Nice fall tea
This is one of my favorite teas. Had it at a tea party once and fell in love. The mix of black tea, plum and cinnamon is perfect!
I love this tea. It is comforting and rich, and I drink it everyday. It revives me mid day and if I wake up with a headache or feeling not quite myself it's all I need to restore my balance. The cinnamon fragrance and subtle flavor is wonderful and the deepness of the plums is just the right blend. I offer this to everyone who comes to my house and I have a lot of converts to this wonderful tea.
Great taste and fragrance. Wonderful cinnamon and plum taste without being overpowering. I can't wait to try it iced!
In the winter, hot, with a good book or a knitting project. In the summer, iced blended with Spring Cherry Green tea! Either way, my very favorite tea of all.
Best tea ever. I use it to make iced tea a gallon at a time. It's a favorite of both of my children.
No fussy prep needed. tastes good no matter what
It has a bite of cinnamon and it really goes well with the plum flavor.
I have loved this forever. The cinnamon and fruit notes are subtle, but are definitely there and it's a harmonious combination!
Subtle, balanced, flavorful - plummy and cinnamony in equal parts. Very aromatic - ordered this on recommendation of friend. VERY happy I tried this - is now my favorite Republic of Tea flavor.
This tea is hands down my favorite tea ever. I give it as gifts and the recipients always love it. I drink this tea daily and just enjoy the cinnamon flavor and the blend with the plum . It is not to fruity but subtle and relaxing. It is great when you have a headache, or stomach upset, or just need to unwind. It is best with just some honey that enhances the cinnamon flavor..great tea!
I have looked everywhere for cinnamon plum ... love it... so glad to have found this online!
I'm really fussy when it comes to tea. This is a powerful tea with a delicate taste. Favorite for over 15 years!
Another wonderful winter time tea. Since it's so mildly spicy I'm guessing it would make a great cold tea, as well. I enjoyed this tea.
Smooth relaxing with the smell of the cinnamon. It's great I would highly recommend it.
Wonderful tea but I found it a bit temper-mental. It goes bitter very quickly but if you get the timing right it steeps a beautiful rich brew with an earthy cinnamon and spice taste up front and a subtle plum finish.
This is the tea I want when I am wrapped up in a warm blanket next to the fire, or when I am feeling under the weather and want to feel cozy and warm. It is definitely "good medicine."
For years I've searched out this lovely tea in stores (unfortunately having a hard time finding it) - I don't know why it didn't occur to me earlier to buy it on line! This is one of my favorites. The cinnamon is a subtle enhancement to the plum. YUM!
Love the combination of flavors.
This is my very favorite tea. I have been drinking it for several years and have not found another flavor more tasty!
This one is also great with half -n- half! I think I will enjoy it even more once winter arrives.
I am comforted in the replenishment of my beloved beverage.
This is my favorite tea to use for iced tea. So aromatic and refreshing. Just wish I could find this tea in a store near me!!!!
Love this tea... especially on a rainy day! The flavor is great and I top it off with a tiny bit of cream. So yummy!!
This was the first tea I'd tried from the Republic of Tea family and it is still my favorite! I drink it with a dash of lemon and it is delicious at anytime of the day. I can't get enough of it.
This tea was the first Republic of Tea I ever tasted in 1994, and I fell in love!So glad it's still available, and a citizen favorite! The flavors are subtle, but just enough to make me all warm inside.
I wrote a HubPages article about tea, with recommendations about Republic of Teas brand tea choices. So far, Cinnamon Plum is my favorite of them all! http://healthypursuits.hubpages.com/hub/Types-of-Teas-Tea-Facts-and-Tea-Recommendations
I love the way this tea tastes. I enjoy the combination of plum and cinnamon. It's great on a cold winter day or a warm summer night...anytime really!
Wonderful taste and aroma. Needs no sweeteners. Gets better each time I drink it.
Memories of Christmas pasts, and shopping in cute gift shops that smell so good. Memories of my english nanny, who danced the highland fling and made me cambric tea when I was a child. All this happiness inspired by one sip of this excellent tea!
I love plums and I love cinnamon so what could be better than the two combined in one tea.
The cinnamon and plum flavors are a wonderful combination - not too sweet, not too spicy. I love it with raw sugar and vanilla soy milk. I especially enjoy it around the holidays.
This is my go-to tea if I'm out of Republic Chai. It's even better in chilly weather. It might be a good alternative for people who like spice, but feel that Chai is too strong for them.
This is a wonderful full flavored tea with rich cinnomon and you can taste the plum too. A nice pick me up especially after being out in the cold or you just want to mellow out
This is my favorite tea! A wonderful blend that has a hint of cinnamon with a plum finish. I drink it hot or cold with a touch of simple syrup.
Mildly and pleasantly fruity, especially in the aroma. A nice blend, but lacks any significant degree of cinnamon zest. If you're looking for a distinct cinnamon zing, this isn't the tea for you.
This is the tea I love to sip while luxuriating in a fabulous work of historic fiction! My children know not to interrupt . . .
