Spicy Pumpkin

Taste: A unique combination of pumpkin sweetness with the gentle, warming spiciness of chilies. Black tea provides a stable base, and the whole is soft, slightly dessert-like, but with a distinct, surprising finish.

Aromat: Warm, autumnal, slightly sweet with a subtle hint of spice and a delicate touch of spiciness.

Appearance: Dark tea leaves with light pumpkin pieces and colorful additions. Visible orange and gold accents give the blend a very autumnal feel.

Dry ingredients: Ceylon High Grown OP black tea, sugar pumpkins, natural flavor, freeze-dried pumpkin, marigold flower, chili pepper, aroma.

Country of origin: Sri Lanka

Preparation suggestion: Pour 1 teaspoon of tea over 95-100°C water and steep for 3-4 minutes. Longer steeping will emphasize the spiciness and depth of flavor. For a latte version: prepare a stronger infusion and combine with warm milk.

Hot classic:
The pure brew best demonstrates the balance between the sweetness of the pumpkin and the subtle spiciness of the chili. The flavor is warm, soft and slightly intriguing.

With a little maple syrup and orange zest:
Maple syrup accentuates the dessert-like, slightly caramel note of the pumpkin, while orange peel adds freshness and breaks up the sweetness. In the background comes the subtle spiciness of chilies, which creates a surprising but very pleasant contrast.

With a little coconut milk:
Creamy coconut milk tempers the spiciness of the chilies and gives the infusion an exotic, slightly dessert-like character. The pumpkin gets softer and "velvety," and the whole thing takes on a whole new, non-obvious dimension.

Pumpkin Spice Kick:
A stronger brew with a touch of honey and a pinch of extra chili or cinnamon creates an intense, expressive composition. Sweetness and spiciness play first fiddle here - this is a tea with character.
