Our Chai is a "mixed spice tea" made of a robust Indian black and traditional masala spices. Unapologetically spicy, Chai offers fragrant aromas and pungent, lively flavors. In the cup, it will nourish the palate and stimulate.
Lot Notes. An organic blend made using a base of Indian black tea blended with spices of cardamom, cinnamon and ginger. This tea has bite and will enliven the senses.
Tea Facts. Base organic black tea is grown in India. Tea is caffeinated. Selected herbs are fresh and organic.
Tasting Notes. The black tea base creates a sweet flavor accentuating the spices of the blend and complexity in its taste. Cardamon is evident, then hints of cinnamon to enliven. Enjoy a lively mouth feel with plenty of lingering aftertaste! It can be infused with milk and sugar.
Brewing Suggestions. Use a rounded tablespoon of leaf and spices for 8 ounces of water. Water should be at boiling temperature (205-212 F). Steep for 3 minutes. For stronger body, steep 4-5 minutes. Flavors can be added as well as milk or substitutes.

Black tea is a leaf that has been fully oxidized. This rigorous oxidization produces a tea of hearty rich flavors while reducing its astringency and bringing out a natural sweetness.
Flavors will range from bright, brisk, peppery, clean, and smoky to aromatic, bold, malty, nutty, spicy, and sweet. Blacks are known for long, delicately aromatic, and comforting aftertastes. Note, they are often enjoyed with milk or sweetener.

Excellent Aroma, Good Taste
This Chai has one of the best aroma's I've experienced for Chai tea. The taste is very good, but I wouldn't say the best I've had. However, after a few brews I realized this Chai improves a lot if steeped with almost twice the amount you would typically use for another black tea. It is very pleasant at this amount, but feels "empty" when steeped with a lesser amount.

Nice Holday Tea
I just got this tea and the infused spices really create a wonderful "holiday" aroma throughout the house. The flavor is very good, but not the best I've had; however, because of the aroma, this one will be on my list for the holidays for sure!
