Got these last month since its seasonal. It comes with 36 tea bags of Republic of Tea's holiday tea blends: Comfort and Joy, Dream by the Fire, and Peppermint Bark. The tins are about 2.5" wide and 2" tall. Stacked together they're 5.5" tall. The tins are festival-y designed with snowflake pattern, and festival images that goes with the teas. They come in red, gold, and green. The sticker doesn't come off cleanly, but its not too difficult to clean the residue off with the sticker. They would be nice containers for anything really.

Comfort and Joy is a black tea blend with cinnamon, cloves, licorice root, apple bits, and natural flavors. It has quite the clove smell and taste than anything else. Its definitely good with milk. It does have a fruity smell kind of like oranges too. It has a great strong scent, though its ok taste wise.

Dream by the Fire is a Rooibos blend with natural cinnamon and vanilla flavors. This tea has the litter scent compare to the other two in this set. It mainly just has the scent of rooibos tea. This tea is the mildest tasting tea in this set so would recommend adding sugar and milk. It kind of has a warming effect when drinking it that's similar to drinking hot cocoa. Would go well with cookies or apple pie.

Peppermint Bark is green rooibos with peppermint, cocoa extract, vanilla flavor, and stevia leaf. Most of the ingredients are organic too. This has a great minty chocolate smell, and its already sweetened so I really didn't need to add anything to this tea to enjoy it. This is my favorite in this set, and its delicious.

Overall, this a decent holiday tea set though I would probably just get the Peppermint Bark. Its good to try or as a gift. Definitely would recommend this companies stackable tea sets!
