The chestnut flavour is nutty and creamy with a sweet, caramelized sugar finish. This tea has a rich, well-rounded base of black teas: smooth enough to drink neat, and strong enough to make a creamy fireside treat when milk is added.
Roasted chestnuts are a long-time tradition and favourite winter treat in southern Europe as well as North America. Chestnuts are harvested in the autumn when they ripen and fall from chestnut trees. With their thick hull they keep well through the cold months, ready to be roasted on an open fire.

Delicious cup of tea Review by KATHY
Roasted chestnut tea has a wonderful aroma and is a delicious cup of tea. I love the smell of it brewing, but I generally drink it over ice. It is one of my favorite tea flavors. Highly recommend.

This tea took me by surprise with it's rich but balanced flavours of warmth, cinnamon and something else entirely wonderful. It enhanced my holiday mornings and put me in a mood for present wrapping. After 5 minutes of steeping the intensity was just right for a breakfast tea strength. I've found that a splash of milk or cream enhances the flavours as opposed to drinking it black. I definitely recommend this tea to the flavoured tea lovers and anyone looking for the Christmas time mood enhancers.

Steeping the Best (Guide)
Different types of teas should be steeped according to certain times and water temperatures to bring out their best flavours. Use this guide as a starting point, and then experiment until you find the perfect brewing method for your favourite tea.
Based on approximately one level teaspoon (2.5 g) of loose tea or one tea bag per 6-8 ounce (180-240 mL) cup. For stronger flavour, add more tea. Brewing for longer may increase the strength of the tea, but will likely also cause bitterness.
Tea Bags vs. Loose Tea
While our tea bags and loose tea are crafted to match the same flavour profile, there are discernable effects between the two formats. Namely, the leaves inside tea bags is milled, making it much finer and a quicker brew, while loose tea can take a couple minutes longer to steep. Tea bags are very convenient, but loose tea can be more visually appealing and brewed with a reusable infuser.
- Tea bags: steep for 3 - 4 minutes
- Loose tea: steep for 4 - 5 minutes
General Steeping Temperatures
The table included here shows some general guidelines for steeping different kinds of tea. Be mindful that some teas, even two from the same category, will brew differently than others. In particular, our green-black blends will often have different ratios of green and black teas - the more green-leaning ones should be brewed at a lower temperature range. Experimentation is highly encouraged, as tea is very much a matter of personal taste.
Puerh and oolong teas are often steeped multiple times for a shorter period of time in smaller brewing vessels. This method creates a curious exploration of the tea as it unfurls, developing new flavours with each subsequent brew - often making for great social conversation.
If you're unsure, try steeping in the middle range for your tea type. If the result is too bitter, steep at a lower temperature or for a shorter time. If the result is flat, try a higher temperature.
