Classic chai flavor: warm and spicy. This is best served with milk and sweetener of some sort for best effect. It also take mixing with other complementary flavored teas well.
'Masala' means 'blend of spices' and 'chai' is simply 'tea.' Inviting fragrance, invigorating flavor, warm finish.

My Favorite out of all the chai tea's I've tried from this site. Def. has all the spicy flavor I love.
Best Indian aroma tea :) very happy. The spice mix was perfect.
I had never really had chai before, so I don't really have much to compare this one to, but I liked it. Sweet and spicy, very much a fall or winter drink with a bit of sugar and a splash of milk, I think.
This was a lovely tea! The spice wasn't too overwhelming, and it warmed me up nicely.
It was absolutely amazing. I had both the loose leaf and the teabag. It is really spicy! No one spice is overpowering though. Absolutely the best Masala Chai I've had.
I like the strong cinnamon flavor in this tea. I am a big fan of chai teas since I now know how to brew them. Add boiling water for two minutes, then pour in nearly boiling vanilla soy milk for another three minutes. Add a touch of honey to your cup. Yum!
Very tasty chai blend. The flavor is just right although there seem to be more spices than black tea. Besides drinking it plain, I have also brewed it into apple cider for a nice spiced hot cider.
Good old fashioned caffienated spicy chai. Great by itself, or as a base note for blends.
The smell is lovely! I got four resteeps off of this one without losing any of the strength, and I could've gone for a fifth. It's a nice, spicy chai.
I really enjoy how diverse Chai can be, and how every recipe is unique. I am a fan of Chai and this tea is very satisfying.
It's a nice Masala Chai. I always drink my tea unsweetened, and so this one left a little something to be desired--I thought it would have a stronger cinnamon flavor to it, but it's still enjoyable nonetheless.
A reordering of this tea is a cause for celebration in my home. Without a doubt everyone's fav! Wonderfully spiced without being too heavy. Great with either milk or straight sugar - prefer it with sugar alone personally.
rocks. period! why you make me type more I dont waznt to
Very delicious!I loved how strong it was compared to teabag chai's.
Great for after dinner. Smooth flavor that relaxes you and gets you ready for bed.
This is quite nice with a bit of milk and sugar, and a good, yummy tea for when the weather starts changing.
Spicy and strong. I'd say the chocolate chai and the this chai are the strongest offering in the chai sampler.
It's best with some warm milk (or for some luxurious half and half).
Really yummy. My new favorite drink.
A long time ago I fell in love with Twinings' Chai tea, but they kept changing the recipe (and the name). Since then I've been in search of a warm spiced chai that doesn't have a artificial 'red cinnamon' taste. I finally found it. Love this tea!
If there was a rating higher than 'great,' this tea would get it. This is, in my opinion, a fall and winter tea. It's got quite a bit more bite than the regular chai, I'm guessing due to the cloves. Whatever it is, it warms you up in a hurry. This one is great either straight, or black with honey, or with honey and milk. Amazing. Get this tea!
The first time I got Masala Chai, I actually didn't like it. I decided to try it again when I was offered a free sample from Adagio through facebook and I'm really glad I did. I think the first sample I got (part of the chai pack) was actually a dud, because it was nothing like this one. You can smell the spices the second you open the bag and they come through so nicely in the tea. It really is just delicious, especially if you love strongly spiced teas.
Spicier than I imagined. I got the sample size, and I'm not a huge fan of chai generally. It really does warm you up though and if you add hot milk, it's a tasty tea latte.
I just can't say enough good things about this wonderful tea!
Fantastic! Best done in boiling whole milk, such raw sugar, dash of black pepper powder and loose (not bagged, doesn't seem to have as much of an effect).
I love this tea. It's one of the most popular teas in our house after Apple Spice Chai.
A new favorite of mine! I ordered the sample and after my first cup I knew I needed to get some more! An awesome pick-me-up at the end of a long day :)
Insane aroma immediately upon opening. This tea came pretty close to my experience in the middle-east.
I love chai and this is a very good one. Has a perfect balance of smooth and spicy. Holds up well to milk. One of the best chai teas I have tried.
I'm not usually one for chai tea but this is quite good. I drink it with a fair amount of milk and sugar. Very good when the weather is cold.
my favorite chai from adagio. it packs a punch in terms of caffeine too.
I LOVE chai tea, and this tea is great ! It has so much flavor, and is definitely better than any store bought chai I have purchased. I will definitely be ordering more !
Just like the stuff one would get if they went to Indian person's house for tea.
This was an excellent tea. It tasted just like the tea I get at out local Indian restaurant. I brewed mine with water and let it steep for about eight minutes and then added a bit of heavy whipping cream (unsweetened). So delicious!
Great flavor. Makes a perfect cup of tea when a little milk is added. Be careful not to over steep or it will become too strong and not taste that good.
This is a deliciously warm and spicy tea. I just added a bit of honey, but I'm sure it'd be great with a dash of milk too.
This is a beautiful masala chai blend. it's the best I've had. I really dislike peppercorns in masala chai, and this is one of the few blends that doesn't include them. The cinnamon and ginger make it spicy and perfect for a cool fall day. This is especially good blended with warm milk and honey.
Best chai I've had in a while. I usually make my own but thought I would give this a try and loved it.
I've been a fan of Masala Chai for awhile and the blend from adagio is really quite tasty. It's also great blended with some of the flavored teas (chocolate, caramel, so far vanilla is my favorite)
What an excellent chai! It's warm, spicy and sweet! I love to brew this with a little bit of brown sugar.
I have always been a fan of chai and this is the best I've had in a long time. The flavor is rich and spicy. Goes great with creamer. I'd love to try it with milk too. I only steeped it for 5 minutes as per the package but I will try steeping it a little longer to experiment.
Pretty good chai, I think a stronger assam base would be better. The sweetness is pretty good, best with honey instead of sugar and a little milk.
I love this chai. It has a perfect blend of spices to stand alone, to be used in a blend, or to be diluted with a heavy dose of milk and sugar. I always try to keep some of this in stock. Works well iced as well as hot.
An absolutely lovely cup of chai tea. I would be careful what cup you pour it into, however, as I left it cooling too long in my plastic travel mug, and now everything I pour into it tastes like this tea!
I love this chai! The spices are strong and flavorful, but not overpowering. This tea and Earl Gray Bravo are my Adagio staples.
AMAZING, my favorite chai! This is so sweet and balanced, it is perfection!
The first time I brewed this tea it tasted really strongly of cinnamon and I began trying to thing of someone to give it away to. However I brewed the tea differently for a friend and found it to be pleasantly spicy.
I love this tea. So does the rest of my family now. The flavor is just out of this world!!!
This is my wake-up tea in the morning. I have it with almond milk and a bit of stevia and it's a nearly perfect launch into the day. I'm a former coffee drinker and I miss it very much but this tea has character and body to keep me interested.
Definitely not your standard overspiced garbage chai stuffed into a tea bag. This blend is a joy just to smell.
Try mixing different amounts of milk for your preferred ratio - mine is 1:1, with the water and milk boiled together.
This is such a wonderful chai! The bold and well rounded flavour is perfect and it's also delicious with a little milk
