Consumer Critique: Wissotzky Tea

I love trying things that are inspired by different places around the globe - and I'm not alone. Fusion cuisine is becoming more popular. If you're a tea drinker, there are lots of ways to try out international flavors, and I had a chance to sample some options from Wissotzky Tea Company's new Artisan Spiced Tea Collection.


Each blend artfully pairs hand-selected premium black tea leaves with market spices, herbs, and other natural ingredients.  Each carefully crafted blend is packed in a delicate pyramid tea bag that allows for the perfect release of aroma and flavor.

Salted Caramel Chai: a sweet and savory beverage redolent of warm cinnamon, ginger root, cloves, sea salt, and cardamom. Normally I'm not a salted caramel fan, but this was a mild tea and even though I'm not much of a tea drinker, it was pretty good.
Ginger and Turmeric: the earthy flavor of turmeric (known for its health benefits) blended with ginger root, cinnamon, cloves, and cardamom. This one wasn't my favorite, but I could see myself drinking it when I have a cold, especially with some honey.
Spiced Nana Mint: robust, flat-leaf Mediterranean mint complemented by cinnamon, ginger root, cloves, cardamom, and pepper. I'm not a fan of mint tea, but my husband enjoyed this one more than I did.
Pumpkin Spiced Chai: a toasty balance of cinnamon and ginger with pumpkin pieces, cloves, cardamom, black pepper, and chili. This was my favorite out of the bunch - and would be perfect in the fall!

Like all Wissotzky products, the Artisan Spiced Tea collection is kosher and non-GMO. It is available in packs of 6 per case (MSRP $4.99 per 16-serving box).
