What is the difference between this tea (Hot Cinnamon Sunset) and the "Hot Cinnamon Spice" by Harney and Sons?

Both taste and smell the same. I've noticed that the hot cinnamon spice (which I was sent when I actually ordered hot cinnamon sunset) is a little cloudy in taste compared to the sunset which isn't. The leaves look smaller. It doesn't appear to have quite the same quality as the other. The tea leaves for sunset spice also appear a tad darker. I am not sure why one (the cinnamon sunset) states HT on the can along with the Harney and Sons name while the other does not. The cinnamon sunset's ingredients state hand picked Chinese black teas while cinnamon spice's can states blend of black teas.

The ladies that work at the actual Harney and sons store/tea house told us that there is no difference. They are the exact same tea.

This is cassia cinnamon. Cinnamoma burmanii, in fact. Still very good IMO, but if you're looking for actual cinnamon, this isn't it.

Yes it is the same. I have been ordering this tea for years and this is the original, just in larger packets. Enjoy!

This Ceylon cinnamon is a very "fine" cinnamon. It's almost like a powder so it doesn't "clump" and float on top of tea like non cinnamon. It's easy to stir into tea and seems to blend well. I wasn't sure if it settled on the bottom or not though, so I tried it this morning. Unfortunately, I got interrupted before I finished my tea and it sat on my desk longer than usual. When I finished it, there was some cinnamon left in the bottom of the cup. I don't know if settled out because it sat longer or if it would have settled there anyway. Since it blended into the tea so much easier than non ceylon cinnamon, I think if I had stirred the tea when I came back to it the cinnamon may not have settle to the bottom but I don't know that for sure. There was definitely not as much cinnamon on the bottom of the cup as what I had put in.

Kara, hi. I am not sure I can answer that question. I'm sorry. I am not sure I have ever had the Cinnabon version. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

I don't believe it said on the package what country it was from but there was a phone number: 800-669-3275, and a website:www.frontiercoop.com. It might be on their website, but they should definitely be able to tell you if you call and ask them. Just in case you're interested, this was really good cinnamon.

Saigon cinnamon is usually Cassia and not the 'real cinnamon'. The real is usually ceylon.

When I ordered the tea, it was in sachets. The color of the tin was a deep orange - more like the color of cinnamon and not the cream colored tin as in this photo.

I drink both and find that the Good Earth Sweet & Spicy is a bit sweeter than this one. The Harney has a more spicy flavor that is a bit stronger.

Yes. Or at least it does when I add it, but doesn't give the same taste elevation as it does a chai ! This tea uses a Vietnamese type cinnamon which reminds me of red-hots candy. To me it is a refreshing change for my taste buds - I prefer mainly to just add sugar with the occasional milk.

It contains real tea spiced Chai Tea is a soothing combination of black tea and rich spices including cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, cloves and cardamom. A perfect blend of flavors that isn't too sweet or too spicy, it can be used to create a variety of hot or cold beverages, including creamy lattes, refreshing iced drinks, and delicious smoothies.

I would say that it is just pleasantly sweet. I personally do not like sweet tea-the natural sweetness of this tea is not overpowering at all. It just enhances the cinnamon taste!

The quick answer is YES, it does settle. For the longer answer, seeing that I don't normally drink tea. I was curious about an answer for your question. Ceylon cinnamon is very finely ground, like powder. But in actuality it is tree bark. So while it will blend into tea or any hot liquid it does not dissolve like sugar or salt. That having been said, If I liked tea and cinnamon and wanted to mix them to have me a really good tasting cup of tea, I would do it. I would not really mind giving it a little stir once in a while. I hope this comments have been of some help to you. Have a good day.Bob The quick answer is YES, it does settle. For the longer answer, seeing that I don't normally drink tea.

I would say they're pretty close to the same spice. This is more of a smoky spice though. It's also a lot thicker than sriracha.

I have purchased this very package and have had no concerns about it. It is Ceylon Cinnamon and the flavor is mild and sweet unlike Cassia which is stronger and "hotter". The color is also lighter indicating that this is true cinnamon and not Cassia
