Delicious!

First time trying this flavor, so got the sample pack, and I was not disappointed. It smells amazing. And it really tastes like toffee and maybe caramel. I really enjoy it and recommend it. At least give it a try.

Golden Arrow

I’m cautious with “smoky” teas, as some of them can be quite strong and undrinkable for my palate. That said, I quite enjoyed the smoky sweetness of Golden Arrow. The smokiness toned down the toffee sweetness so it wasn’t too cloying, and that bit of sweetness helped mellow the smoke into a nicely balanced black tea with a roasty warmth to it that will keep me coming back. Like a more sophisticated dessert tea. Yummy!

Cuddle Up; Drink It Up

This is the tea I recommend to people as their gateway into AUT. It's the perfect introduction into the complex flavor teas. Golden Arrow is incredibly smooth. I can't believe how much I go through because it's just co comforting and reminds me of all those Winters tucked in at home when the blizzard is howling outside. I feel like I'm living in a storybook!

I use just a bit of honey and can drink 4 brewings on this serving. Each steeping has its own delight. I really can't believe how smooth and inviting this tea is. It's easy one of my favorites.
