Civil Disobedience - Smoky Cardamom Black Tea

Tastes Like: cardamom, maple sap, campfire
Feels Like: fireside after a winter walk
Get lost in billows of smoke and fireside conversation. This layered tea opens with the flavor of conifers and deep tannins. The astringency of cardamom pod cuts through the aroma of silky pipe tobacco and allspice. The flavor curls and shifts between burning wood, wet earth, and lingering maple.

Good tea! I like it
- CCatherineVerified BuyerRated 1 out of 5 stars5 days agoToo much smoke for me
I ordered all of the smokey teas after falling in love with Black Lodge (my absolute favorite tea from August!). I have been really disappointed in all of them as they are just way too smokey for me. I'm sure some people love the level of smoke, but it's way too much for me and my family to enjoy.

- ASAdrienne S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoGreat tea for the times we’re living in!
Tobacco and smoky tea? Who was the mastermind behind this?! And the cardamom for an extra oomph! Yes, please!
- GLGeorge L.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoSmoke and cardamom are like peanut butter and chocolate
These flavors are just meant to go together. Some other smoky teas are too smokey (i.e. you stuck your nose in a bonfire); however, this one is very balanced with smoke. Enough you know it's there and balanced beautifully with the cardamom.

Great blend. I typically am not interested in anything with a “smoky” flavor but this is a subtle hint and blends perfectly with the cardamom.
