This is pumpkin and spice and everything nice. The spice comes through at a nice strength but I would enjoy a bit more pumpkin flavor.(212F for 10min)
Masala Chai spices in an herbal honeybush pumpkin base. Beautiful clear and bright cup, and crisp, tangy-sweet flavor.

This is pumpkin and spice and everything nice. The spice comes through at a nice strength but I would enjoy a bit more pumpkin flavor.(212F for 10min)
In the bag: A riot of different ingredients dress up the brown base of tea leaves. I see safflower, nibs, and big chunks of ginger.
On the nose (pre-steep): Rich combination of chai, pumpkin, ginger, and cinnamon. More flavors are present that I can't identify. Medium intensity.
On the nose (post-steep): Most of the pre-steep scent is still here. Notes of chai, pumpkin, and cinnamon. Medium-to-less intense.
On the tongue (pre-sweetener): A soft blend of spicy autumn flavors. The chai and pumpkin are foremost with cinnamon in the background.
On the tongue (post-sweetener): The sweetener strengthened and clarified the additive flavors just a bit. The overall profile is the same.
Opinion: A pleasant tea for spicy fall flavor. The honeybush is an excellent base for this blend, allowing the additives to take center stage. Sweetener is a must here.
Preparation: 8 min @ 212 ℉, ½ tsp monk fruit sweetener
Hello Great Pumpkin!
I waited with the pumpkins
Knowing you would come!
I made us some tea,
Will you have some tea with me?
It's late? it's decaf!
You can rest easy
What, Will I come back again
Every year, you bet!

Spiced teas are hit or miss for me. I was sad to finish this cup of tea.
This was a nice, smooth, spice tea that I enjoyed in the evening. The only thing I would change would be to add more pumpkin flavor to it because my packet seems to have been light in that flavor. It’s still a very nice tea. I’m thinking that I could make up and add some of that pumpkin pie spice syrup for which you can find the recipe on the Selefina website. I’ll bet that would really be yummy!
This is a lovely honeybush pumpkin chai—sweet with mild fall spices.
This tea is so good. I love Chai tea and having a caffeine free option for evening sipping is such a treat. I brewed at 212 for seven minutes and added a touch of Cinnamon Honey and non-dairy creamer. Delicious.
All the flavors of fall in a nice herbal blend so you can drink it on chilly fall nights! I add a little bit of oat milk and it really makes it a perfect night tea!
UPDATED from 10/17/21: Still LOVE this tea! Glad I bought a bigger bag. It doesn’t get any better than this: spicy and NO caffeine! The tea smells of wonderful cinnamon and ginger when the CommuniTEA packet opens. It steeps into a cloudy, warm amber color and tastes of cardamom, cinnamon and ginger. These blend into one delicious flavor that takes the spotlight. The honeybush is a perfect setting for these spices, and provides such a nutty warmness to the flavor. There is a soft creamy mouthfeel that may be coming from the pumpkin flavor, which is more of a supporting player today, as it and the cocoa nibs add to the finish, but are mild. So those who are looking for a pumpkin tea may not be satisfied with this one. Adding ¼ teaspoon of sweetener and some heavy whipping cream (to 12 oz) makes it taste creamier and milder, but it tastes fine plain. I look forward to drinking it through the many months ahead, because this is a delicious, warming cup of Autumn. (10 minutes @ 212ºF+ sweetener and cream if desired).
It was nice. It tastes more like a regular chai, I'm not getting anything pumpkin-y but it makes a nice evening cup.
Fall in a mug! Love the chai spices with the pumpkin flavor in the background.
Fantastic decaf chai tea! Chai is my favorite, so it's great to have a version I can drink at night. The pumpkin flavor is subdued, but is enough to make for a warm fall flavor.
This is the perfect chai for fall! It perfectly combines the 'pumpkin spice' flavor with the creaminess you would expect out of a chai. Feels like pumpkin pie as a tea. It's probably not for people who really dislike the PSL flavor, but I love it, I am very #basic and Starbucks coffee gives me a headache. This is a much creamier and more satisfying alternative!
Very yummy tea that I enjoy as a sweet treat with a little brown sugar
Delicious. This is exactly what I was looking for—a caffeine-free tea to sip on cool, fall evenings. Until trying this tisane, I had not had honeybush before, and it is truly appropriately named. I really does somehow taste sweet!
A must have for fall season, love it with some half and half
Quite pleasant--the pumpkin accents aren't overly pronounced and the chai spice makes itself gently felt. It's a delicious sip on autumnal evenings when you're looking for a warm cup of company. Best served with a blanket and a good book!
Yummy! When I brew this in my classroom, it smells so nice in my room for the whole day. Would have given it 5 stars if the pumpkin flavor was a little more prominent
This is a nice and spicy tea. I enjoy it plain but with some honey and milk added it becomes a delicious creamy treat.
Honeybush Pumpkin Chai is one of my favorite Chais. If you like honeybush teas and pumpkin this tea is a must try.
At first, I tried steeping for 7 minutes. Good, but a little weak. The next time I steeped it for 8 minutes. Perfect.
Yum yum yum! What a great caffeine free psl alternative! I turned this one into a latte with some almond ps creamer and sat back to conjur fall. Delicious.
Cannot believe how rich this flavor is, and the aroma is so inviting and soothing that I truly cannot recommend this enough. I couldn't believe there was no caffeine; this is a perfect drink to have before bed.
Very yummy herbal for when you are craving chai but done want caffeine.
This is a FANTASTIC chai! It's got a hint of sweetness and all the spices you expect, but with none of the caffeine so you can have it at night!
This Is one of my favorites
I love the caffeine free honey bush teas
We love this tea in my house! A warm, spicy, caffeine-free treat that we enjoy before bed. Definitely steep it for the full 10 minutes.
This is perfect for drinking year round when you need that pumpkin spice fix. It’s a great blend of the pumpkin spice with a little emphasis on the cinnamon. It die t have to be Fall to enjoy it, it’s good anytime!
Delicious caffeine-free option for a dessert tea at night.
Using the standard spices before adding the pumpkin spice, I taste mostly clove, which is sad because it's not even on the list of ingredients. The bag I received did not show the recommended heeping teaspoons for 6oz as it shows in the app.
Love the honeybush teas, especially in the afternoon when I don't need caffeine.
The adagio pumpkin spice flavored black tea gives me a headache, like walking past the hallmark candle store in the mall, so I did not have high hopes for this tea. It wasn't headache inducing, but still pumpkin-spicey enough that it didn't just taste like honeybush chai. I still would probably only drink this if it's fall.
Lovely smelling, and tasting added a little honey for sweetness and it came out great!
Very tasty. A nice. spicy chai tea with pumpkin finish.
Its a good tasting chai. I dis not realize it was herbal. I did miss the caffeine.
Cold brewed, get a lot of chai notes but no pumpkin comes through. Need to try it hot.
Love the smooth taste with the warm spices! I can even overbrew this and it doesn't get bitter!
Great option for a decaf chai, great hot and iced.
Delicious decaf chai tea. This would be the perfect tea for the fall weather.
This tea isn't terrible, but honeybush and cinnamon are the only flavors I can taste. It honestly smells better than it tastes.
If you like your Pumpkin Chai s for the fall, this is a nice one with no caffeine. It is lighter than a typical black tea chai, but still has that nice pumpkin flavor. It goes great with a splash of milk. @adagioteas
Not my favorite but ok. Too much cinnamon for me.
I thought this tea was a bit overly sweet when I first made it but it really grew on me over the holidays. I love Adagio's honeybush chocolate and this is similar but with a wider range of flavor notes from the chai. It makes for a nice dessert tea but I also like it in the morning with a splash of milk. I steep 1 tsp for about 3 minutes for the first cup, and then add about 1/4-1/2 tsp more of this or plain honeybush and steep it a little longer for a second cup. I find that Adagio's chai blends tend to be a bit spicier than other brands, so I try to make sure not to oversteep or it can become a bit bitter.
Pretty good, but a little weaker in taste than I d like! @adagioteas
A great afternoon tea! I don't add anything to the tea and I just enjoy it just as is.
Spicy and absolutely decadent with a splash of cream. A fine dessert in a cup... I love it before bed to warm up the soul. Add on the health benefits of all the spices and honeybush tea, and you're in for a treat.
Wonderful flavor, the pumpkin is noticeable but perfectly balanced where you can taste both the chai spices and the autumnal pumpkin without one overwhelming the other.
This chai packs a punch in the best ways! I didnt know what to expect with the honeybush and pumpkin, but I was so glad I decided to dive head first into this blend. While I love fall flavors, Texas weather sometimes doesnt cooperate. So on those especially warm Fall days, I totally made this an iced tea---and wowza was it invigorating! I cold brewed by steeping for like 6-8 hours. I then added some simple syrup to taste to cute through some of the sharper undertones. If you like a strong, biting Chai--hot or iced--then I recommend you give this blend a try.
This is a wonderful tea which is spiced but not overwhelming, naturally sweet with a depth of honeybush flavor. Cinnamon and cloves present themselves briskly but linger subtly. This tea is great without any additives and good in any type of water, re-brews adequately. It s especially fun during the holidays or on cold, rainy days that should feel like holidays. Pairs delightfully with salted caramel dark chocolate. @adagioteas
I’m a big fan of chai teas so having new variations is a hit with me!
