★★☆☆☆

I had an Indian friend come in to brew it, and, according to him, that was not chai.

★★★★★

An excellent classic chai. All the spices you want and none you don't.

★★★☆☆

It's... Ok. I feel like it's missing something. Every time I've brewed it, it just tastes a bit weaker than I'd like. It's a little strong on the cloves.

★★★★★

Brewed and sipped without any add-ins, this chai has a wonderful, mild spice.

★★★★★

This is a nice regular masala chai. Best with lots of milk! I also sometimes like to add a little fresh ginger to make it a little spicier.

★★★★★

A strong tea richly flavored with a generous amount of spices, but not cloyingly fragrant. Works with milk. Even better with almond milk.

★★★☆☆

I love a good chai with milk and sugar, and perhaps this blend is better when prepared that way, but when I’m home I usually just have it black. I found the flavor of cloves to be overwhelming.

★★★★★

Very good, just the right amount of spice and is perfect with banana bread.

5 min steep · 112°F

★★★★☆

Quite good. I love chai, but I'm picky. This is a good one, second only to the blend Catcher in the Chai for me so far. Blends well with some steamed milk to bring out the flavors.

★★★★★

Absolutely addictive, especially with oatmilk. So good I had to try the rooibos version for nighttime sipping.

★★★★★

This is one of my favorite classic chai teas. I ordered more.

4 min steep · 212°F

★★★★★

Spicy flavors that need just a touch of sugar to combat. Delicious with or without some milk added.

★★★☆☆

Kind of meh, it's all over the place and I've had better bagged chai.

★★★★★

Always been my favorite chai. Bold and warm and good to mix with others.

★★★☆☆

It's a okay. Too many flavors trying to work together. Not bitter, just ... a lot. This might be a good tea for those who drink their tea with cream. I tried adding a little sugar but if anything that just gave it more zing.

Wow. Perfect. The spice blend is ideal for chai. I wouldn't change a thing.

★★★☆☆

Overwhelming ginger presence. Very spicy. Ended up using it for chai syrup instead of for fresh cups.

★★★★★

I absolutely LOVE this chai. It is by far my favorite. Compex beautiful flavors, a bit of a kick with that warm spicy embrace of chai. Truly stunning.

★★★★★

I really enjoyed this chai. Perfect for a cold day. Had a really nice spicy flavor that was not overwhelmed when I added milk.

★★★★★

Perfect chai for me. A good balance of spices and black tea. I dont have a preference for spiced tea, but this one I intend to buy again. Best with a splash of cream!

★★★☆☆

It smells very nice, but is a little watery, even when following proper brewing instructions.

★★★☆☆

Cloves omg tons of cloves. This is definitely not a replacement for Oprah Chai. It’s a decent chai on its own, but I would prefer far less clove. I modified it by adding 6 oz of cinnamon inclusion, 6 oz of cocoa nibs inclusion, and 6 oz of rooibos vanilla, which gets it much closer to the original Oprah Chai, but it’s still not quite right.

★★★★★

A wonderfully balanced chai. I enjoyed with a little sweet cream.

★★★★★

Great blend of chai spices. Love the clove, ginger and cardamom. Really great black tea, gives a nice caffeine boost. Not too astringent.

★★★★☆

It’s fine. I was hoping it would be a little more intense or flavorful.

★★★★★

It was delicious! Added two teaspoons per cup and it was just the right amount of strenght.

★★★★★

This is a nice smooth chai, great flavors, love this in the morning.

★★★★★

A very good traditional chai flavor. The black pepper is a bit stronger than I normally like but some sugar and cream balances it out nicely!

★★★★☆

This is a pretty standard chai, and thus, you should definitely do yourself the favor of brewing this IN your milk of choice. Please. For your sake.

★★★★★

Excellent blend. Made the mistake of getting it in the bags instead of loose, so not as strong and spicy as I would normally brew. Lesson learned—getting the loose tea from now on.

★★★★★

By far my favorite chai I’ve had in years. I add a quarter tsp of stevia and a splash of heavy cream

10 min steep · 212°F

★★★★★

Delicious chai! Excellent with honey and a bit of milk.

★★★★★

I mix this with white chai and it tastes great! I was looking for a replacement for teavana and I like this even better

★★★★★

Love to blend with Raja Oolong Chai for a comparable tea to the old favorite Teavana blend.

★★★★☆

A solid chai. I think I wish it had pink peppercorns in it

★★★★★

LOVE the flavor of this Chai. Smooth and delicious.

★★★★★

I bought this tea after my third child (who was a preemie and didn’t give me as much sleep as the other boys) because I needed caffeine and I don’t like coffee. It has really made morning some thing for me to look forward to! With a little bit of cream and occasionally some honey, I love to sit down early and do my Bible study.

★★★★☆

Again just too spicy for my taste and digestion; will try again with steamed almond milk and sweetener. Smell great before brewed and in the cup.

★★★★☆

Tastes like a good spiced chai. Trying to decide if I like it more than Trader Joe's, it is very similar

★★★★★

Masala chai is my favorite version of chai tea. The spices blend really well.

★★★★★

This is my favorite chai of all chais - perfect blend of spices - it is like a well recorded and performed song - everything heard and complementary with the others - LOVE

★★★★★

A favorite of mine for years. I also like this in the afternoon steeped in milk. It s like a light meal and will keep you from snacking after dinner. It will keep you full for hours.

★★★★★

I had this Chai in the Tea Advent Calendar and I loved it! Very smooth and spicy. A great Chai!

★★★★☆

I like this tea but hoped it might be a little on the sweeter side. I do enjoy it occasionally with a bit of maple syrup and skim milk.

★★★★★

My all time favorite chai. Cardamom, cloves, cinnamon. It is warm, nutty, spicy and absolutely delish!

★★★★☆

Pretty tasty. Strong spices, which I like. I add in a good bit of milk to balance the spice.

4 min steep · 200°F

★★★★☆

Not exactly what I was looking for but not bad either.

★★★★★

I never loved chai until I had this one! The cloves make me think of a tasty cider. It’s perfect. Great as a latte or just black!

★★★★★

YUM! I mix mine with honey, and let it sit 5-10 minutes. It is spicy and delicious

★★★★★

Heavy on the cardamom and excellent with a splash of milk and some sugar. Warming in a different way than pure cinnamon.
