Republic of Tea Cinnamon Plum

Today I'm drinking Republic of Tea's Cinnamon Plum black tea, which bills itself as a combo of black tea, cinnamon, natural plum flavor, sloeberries and elderberries.  The aroma isn't incredibly strong.  The flavor isn't particularly strong either.  The cinnamon is soft, warm, and cozy, not the blow-your-doors-off of, say, Harney & Sons' Cinnamon Spice.  The plum note is very very faint, just a quality of sweetness that offsets the natural flavor of the tea.   In short, this is a black tea for people who like tea that tastes primarily like tea.   I myself would like a stronger sweet fruit note.

It's not bad, it's just not that interesting.  Likely will not buy again.
