The smoky chicory note really comes through in this one, giving it a depth that reminds me of a dark roast coffee without the jitters. I've been brewing it a little longer than usual to pull out the full-bodied character, and it's become my go-to afternoon drink.

If you're looking for a tea that captures the cozy depth of a campfire without any smoke, this is it. The chicory and tobacco notes give it a really unique, mellow richness that’s perfect for an afternoon wind-down.

The tobacco note hits right after the chicory, making it feel more like a dark roast coffee than a typical tea. I steeped it a bit longer than usual and the body stayed smooth, no bitterness creeping in.
