My favorite of the chai options offered here. Consistently satisfying!
'Masala' means 'blend of spices' and 'chai' is simply 'tea.' Inviting fragrance, invigorating flavor, warm finish.

I love the spice in this tea. Best part is that you can steep it for as short or as long as you want up to 10 mins depending on how spicy you like it.
This Chai is so fantasticc... sweetness and spice is just amazing. Have it straight and at times with a bit of milk. Either way it's always a great cup.'
Chai is so wonderful. The spice and the sweetness within this bag is just amazing. Sometimes I drink it straight and at times with a bit of milk. Either way it's always a great cup.
Delicious! It's warmly spicy without overpowering the flavor of the tea. I drink it with cashew milk which makes one great chai latte! Some may like it with honey, but I find the spices just the right sweetness no their own. I steep it twice in using my siphon pot. The second steep goes into a pitcher in the fridge for ice tea later. This is definitely my favorite so far.
This is a good chai. I will probably buy it again.
Spicy, warm. I especially like it with some mint thrown in.
Spicy and delicious for any tea drinker who enjoys a strong, fiery cup. The cinnamon strength reminds me of a certain brand of gum I enjoyed as a child (that just happened to be 'big and red'). This chai should not be underestimated.
Masala chai is one of those teas that's good any time. With a touch of milk and sugar it's a wonderful spicy treat!
I prefer my chai to be REALLY spicy, and I wish they could include black pepper in this blend.
A really great chai. Much better than any chai I have been served in a coffee shop. I will be making it myself from now on!
Absolutely the best when brewed in sweetened vanilla almond milk. :D
This has such a great flavor! I ordered the chai sampler and this is the only one I've reordered on its own. I love it with honey and and some almond milk
I love this tea with a little milk and agavae nectar in the morning to wake me up. I have also mixed it with vanilla chai roobios with good results.
This is the perfect combination of spices for me.
Can't really go wrong with a chai, but this one is especially good, tons of spice, while still being able to clearly taste the tea.
Of all the chai I've tried this is definitely my favorite. This is the tea I make when I want to drink something sweet and milky.
Surprisingly not very strong. The smell is extremely potent but the spices come through more as an aftertaste.
Like many of the other reviews on adagio, I agree this tea is at it's best boiled with milk and sweetener.
That said, this is also my daily drinker at work and I don't have access to a pot to boil it in. Our water dispenser here tops out at 196f, so I make due with steeping two table-spoons for 7minutes in my glass mug (also from adagio).
This works well and gives a spicy lift to my afternoon. Overall I will deffinitly be buying this tea again, and whether this is your first chai or your 100th, you should buy it too!
I am big fan of spicy teas, Masala probably takes first place here
well balanced, i added a bit of french vanilla creamer to it and it took it to the next level. utterly delicious
This is a really delicious chai tea. My only problem with it is that it takes so long to brew. When I'm in a hurry I don't have time to wait 8 minutes to drink my tea...
Chai isn't really my favorite, but I mainly got this for my Mom who loves chai. She thinks it's pretty good, though she prefers making her own still.
A decent chai, but not nearly as spicy as I would like. I usually end up adding my own spices to this to make it stronger. I think I might actually be better off just ordering a black base and spicing it up on my own.
The clove is strong in this one - and that makes it perfect for me. I usually brew it for five minutes, then add two spoonfuls of sugar and a good amount of milk. Never going back to the pre-made mixes again!
Spicy and rich. I like an extra spicy Chai so I use 2.5 tablespoons per cup with a little splash of cream. Delicious.
Sooooo good! I love the strong clove flavor. The spiciness of this tea works especially well with a little coconut milk or half-and-half.
I love this tea. I was kind of reluctant to try it but the reviews were good so I gave it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. Unfortunately, because I have problems with dairy I can't always add milk, but the tea itself is fine by itself most times. Whenever I feel my stomach wont be upset I sneak in a bit of milk. The taste is worth the risk.
I really like chai tea, and this one doesn't disappoint! Chai-licious!
Excellent chai! I really like the blend of this one, and it mixes well with other chais too if I want a bit more oomph to something else. Lovely with cream and sugar.
This is a dry spice tea. There's no fruit or vanilla to calm it down and make it sweeter (other than the cream/sugar/honey I added, of course). Very intense ginger and cloves, nice and strong. I like it a lot.
I was a little worried that this one would be too spicy - even though the description assured me that it wasn't - but I need not have feared. The tea is mild enough not to send my stomach into knots, but flavorful enough to be really enjoyable. If you generally avoid spicy teas because they don't agree with your stomach, then this might be a good one for you. You'll get the taste without the complications.
The last time I had chai was in New Delhi, so you can imagine I was reserved in my expectations. But this is Adagio, after all, and the spice blend in this chai is to die for. I boiled it in milk (as they did in India) and enjoyed it immensely.
This is the worst chai I've ever tasted, much too heavy on the cloves...
One of the finest teas available here. Good with milk and sugar, or just sugar. Warm and rich, it is a perfect tea to drink on a chilly day to help invigorate the drinker.
My and are both big fans of chai tea. This rates a ten my book very nice blend of spices a little milk and sugar really makes this a good cup of tea any time of day. Made a cup for my wife when she had an upset stomach defiantly did the trick.
An excellent blend of spices, impactful in blends, well-balanced, and reasonably strong.
This tea is absolutely wonderful - spiced without being overpowering and perfect with a little milk and honey. I've only made it iced so far, but I can't wait for winter to try it hot. My only issue is that I wish there were more cinnamon. it's JUST shy of spicy enough. Perhaps steeping it longer would help. A great tea all around though.
Love drinking this black. I love the spiciness it has to it.
I drink this chai 1/3 milk, 2/3 tea with honey to taste.
One of my favorites! This tea is wonderful on a cold night or chilled and taken on a hike. It makes my house smell good, too!
This is okay. Not the best chai I have had. It takes a lot of tea, but the flavor isn't very strong for a chai. I expected a bit more spice. It mostly has the flavor of clove, and is missing the cinnamon and other forward spicy flavors I expect in a good chai.
The cinnamon completely over powers the cup and can only be described as tasking like 'Christmas' which is not a good thing in my opinion. Cardamon and black tea is a delicate and excellent form of masala chai and that is what I was hoping for, a little more balance to all the extra flavors, not so here.
Beautiful chai, very full taste and its got a nice little bite of spice.
Both my sister and myself love this tea. It has a nice strong spiced flavor and is also lovely with the addition of a little sweetener and some milk or cream.
Not only does this smell absolutely amazing in the pouch, it makes a nice tasty cup of tea as well. It's not too spicy, either, which is great for people who can't do much spice (hi). I like it!
Very powerful with loads of spice! Warms you up really quickly and it's also amazing with some milk!
Spicy, strong, and full of whole spice pieces, not powdered bland messes you see in tea bags from other companies.
Spicy, warm, and good! A bit strong on the ginger though.
Spicy and just what I needed to clear up my sinuses.
