★★★★★

Such a great chai! Loved this one! This tea even turned my coffee-drinking husband into an afternoon tea drinker. :)

★★☆☆☆

Pretty boring compared to the masala I got from the Savannah Tea Room. Added a few peppercorns and it was still bland - tried boiling several heaping tablespoons in a pot for about ten minutes, then adding hot almond milk and a little heavy cream and what I got was boring, slightly flavored almond milk. Not really a good chai at all.

I like this chai a lot. I like it black and with honey and milk.

★★★★☆

This was given to me as a gift. I have never had chai tea before and it took me a few times to get it right. Its very strong and really spicy it will leave a warm feeling in your mouth. Its a very different experience. Give it a shot its perfect for winter!

★★★★★

Wonderful with milk and honey...Smells so good when you steep it

★★★★☆

Not as heavy on spice as some other chais I've had. Best with a little bit of milk

9 min steep · 200°F

★★★★★

Its hard to find a truly good masala chai out there, however this is just that. A perfect blend of spice and zest that tastes great with just a splash of warm milk.

★★★★☆

This is a nice tea I lime it when I want something different than my favorite earl grey moonlight it has a very smooth taste I had a drop of cream it it

★★★★★

This is a classic chai that tastes particularly great when brewed with honey and milk. It is impossible to go wrong with masala chai!

★★★★★

This is a good, solid chai, and one of the best I've had from a ready-mixed tea rather than a homemade multi-day-brewed concentrate. It's got nice spice that doesn't disappear with sugar and milk, and you can steep it a little longer to draw those notes out without worrying about the tea getting too bitter.

★★★★☆

Love this tea! It's even more seasonally fragrant than the spiced apple chai and rooibos vanilla chai put together! The hint of sweetness is also a plus

10 min steep

★★★☆☆

Not great, but just ok, very average chai. Could have a bit more bite.

★★★★☆

A very gentle tea. I enjoyed it, but perhaps I didn't steep long enough -- it wasn't as strong as I expected.

★★★★★

Fantastic chai. Comes off as may be strong when you first open the pouch, but not so once you brew it.

★★★★☆

This tea is very good, especially when some cream is added. I have been searching for a really spicy chai, and this doesn't quite do it for me. As a tea, it's delicious, but if you're looking for a really spicy chai, this isn't it.

★★★☆☆

I expected a much stronger flavor from this chai, it could be that I'm not brewing it correctly though.

★★★★★

Nice and Spicy!! Only downside is it takes a bit longer to brew, and the smell makes it so hard to wait!

★★★★☆

I hate to rate this one bad, because it is more my taste than anything. It is a really spiced tea. I am thinking of using it as mulling spices in a jar of cider. The clove and cinnamon would be perfect. As for a tea by itself, it is not my thing.

★★★★☆

It's great. I bought the sample package and I don't want to use too much of it, so my tea isn't as strong as I usually take it. But it's still delicious. I'm definitely going to be ordering much more next time!


The sample size definitely doesn't give you enough tea for 10 cups. If you follow the measurements on the package, you'll have enough tea for about 3 cups...

★★★☆☆

The flavors are too strong for me. Not my favorite.

★★★★★

Very nice and spicy, but not so much as to be overwhelming, would go great with milk!

★★★★☆

The tea is good, not my favorite spiced tea but certainly up there. Has a good spice without being spicy or overbearing.

★★★★★

I first tried this tea just black, nothing added, just brewed in hot water. I loved it and drank my cup pretty fast. The spiciness was perfectly balanced and great for warming me up on such a cold morning. I got on and read some more reviews on it and people suggested brewing in milk on the stove so later that day I used up the rest of my sample bag to share it with my family. I brewed in half milk, half water in a pan on the stove, and let everyone add their own honey or sugar. Oh my, it was so wonderful. I'm new to trying out different teas and this one is by far my absolute favorite of the ones I've tried so far, even with nothing added to it.

★★★★★

As always, the top of the food chain when it comes to true 'chai tea'. A wonderful blend of spices where the cinnamon really makes this blend work.

★★★★☆

Very good, I wish the spice was a bit stronger. I think I'll have to brew 3 teaspoons to a cup next time.

★★★★☆

I purchased this for something a little different. It was quite good, but, despite trying many different steep times, temperature, amount of tea, cream/no cream, sugar/no sugar, I never got it to turn out just how I like it. The flavor always seemed to fall slightly flat and I cannot point out exactly what seemed missing. I may get another sample of this in the future to further test it.

7 min steep · 210°F

★★★★☆

Brewed like tea, this was pretty good. I really want to try brewing it in milk next. The spices are balanced nicely.

★★★★★

I love this tea! Must add a splash of milk or cream to really bring out the flavors. Normally I have this on the weekends and a plain black tea during the week at work. Allows for a bit of variety in my mornings.

★★★★★

great aroma, great taste. no better way to start the day. Order it by the pound. Trust me.

★★★★☆

Really bold flavors with this one. Milk or Cream required to not be overpowered by the cloves and other flavors. Will buy again.

★★★★★

Phenomenal! This was a fantastic buy, I will most definitely be purchasing again.

★★★★☆

This tea is pretty good, smells nice in the bag and has a good flavor, but it is even better blended with vanilla teas. Honeybush Vanilla is my best suggestion to blend with this.

★★★★★

This tea was originally part of my chai sampler, and I've ordered it again. It is a very good tea.

★★★★★

This is my favorite tea to have when I am stressing over school and work and papers and general things that must get done. This is one of those teas tastes exactly as splendid as it smells.

★★★★★

Yummy chai...I gotta get me another cup! It is definitely a winner!

★★★★☆

So very amazing. A lovely full spicy flavor that makes it a perfect breakfast tea!!

★★★★☆

I usually like making my own chai, but this is delicious!

★★★★★

Robust chai flavor. Perfect for a cold day or early morning latte.

★★★★☆

A great chai tea. If you like chai, this is perfect for a cold day.

★★★★★

This is by far my favorite 'pre-made' loose leaf chai. It also makes a great latte with skim milk and honey.

★★★★★

a nice and spicy chai. great with cream and sugar.

3 min steep · 212°F

★★★★☆

Nice spice with a strong flavor of cloves. Overall a good chai!

★★★★★

I love chai tea and this one is one of my favorite. It has more of a kick to than the ones you get from a supermarket.

★★★★★

This chai is great! I'm really glad I went ahead and bought a whole pound of it. I was surprised to find how many whole cloves are in this, but they taste great in chai so I'm not complaining. The spices in this chai become somewhat overwhelming if steeped too long, but really only if I forget about it for more than 8 or 10 minutes.

5 min steep · 212°F

★★★★★

This is my go-to tea when I'm on the run to school. Its a great spicy tea that helps to really wake you up in the morning. It still manages to taste good even when you forget about it for a bit longer then intended.

5 min steep · 212°F

★★★★★

As with most chai I add a little honey and milk to my cup. This blend is full of flavor and is great hot or chilled.

6 min steep · 200°F

★★★★★

Chai tea was my introduction to the tea world! Suffering from an extreme case of strep throat, I gave up my assured hatred of tea for the warmth and soothing comfort it gave my throat. After awhile I began to have a taste for all kinds of teas that remind me of the spicy taste of chai. Spiced teas have always hit the spot for me with its blend of so many different kinds. I sometimes love to put milk in it, add whipped cream and sprinkle cinnamon over the top. Perfect.

★★★★★

This is my 'go to' every morning iced tea blend.

★★★★★

I love the spice of this tea. Just smelling the dry tea reminds me of the Far East. Drinking it is even better. And this tea is one I blend with Thai Chai, honeybush hazelnut and lemon grass to make my custom blend - Mucci's Mix!

★★★★★

This is my absolute favorite Adagio tea and has become by every morning treat. Spicy enough with a unique flavor. My only qualm is that Adagio recommends using two teaspoons which makes the bag go way too fast.
