Kusmi Christmas Tea by Kousmichoff {Fragrant Shopping} {Holiday Gift Idea}
If you are still wondering what Christmas tea you want to sip over Christmas or bring as a gift to a host, I would recommend the Kusmi Christmas Tea. I prefer it over the popular Spiced Christmas Tea by Taylor's as it has a deeper, smokier, and spicier flavor.
The Taylor's one makes me think more of a classic English breakfast tea. It is also not that flavorful in my opinion and hence feels less of a special tea during that special season of the Holidays.....
This is the description of the tea from Kousmichoff:
