Just received this sample along with my new UtiliTea kettle and had to try it out. Very good mix of spices. This falls into the 'mild' spicy category for me (prefer it kicked up a bit more, but tasty. Will try varying the steeping times etc
Forget about the coffee stand chai made from overly sweet syrup, this is the real deal.
The spices were fresh and well balanced, I've never had a cup to it's equal. Shared it with a friend who doesn't like chai's, she loved the aroma and flavor.
Not my favorite but I believe that to be a matter of preference, not quality.
This tea is best enjoyed by placing the appropriate amount of tea in an IngenuiTEA along with a 50% milk (2% or whole milk is best)/50% water solution and microwaving it until it just about boils. Let everything steep for an additional 5-10 minutes and add the amount of sugar you desire.
This tea didn't disappoint, and I tried it a day after having a homemade chai-type tea from my India-native coworker. The smell is incredible, and with a little cream and sugar, it makes for a very, very satisfying cup of tea.
Delicious. This chai is nicely spiced with a great flavor. Unlike so many other chai tea mixtures out there, this one doesn't make you feel like you're drowning in a sea of vanilla. It makes a warm, spicy, energizing cup. Brew it for 5 minutes with hot milk for a really nice treat. I'm sad I ran out!
This is always a favorite of guests and is by far the most requested when I make tea. A superb spiced tea!
A good chai on its own, not bitter or over 'spiced' in my opinion. I was wary of the amount of clove in the mix but it turned out nice. Steep for recommended time. I drink only straight no cream or sweetener, so can't comment if it's good as a latte.
Strong flavoured but lovely. Tastes good with milk too.
Is there any better flavor in the world of tea than freshly brewed Masala Chai plus milk and honey? I don't think so.
It was okay, nothing special. I had trouble getting enough spice to my liking.
I love chai tea, and I was not disappointed in this version at all. It could be a bit spicier, but overall a good chai.
I was surprised last week when I peeked in my Masala Chai bag and realized that I only had about two servings left. This is nice if you want something warm and spiced. It also works well with cream and sugar, but I prefer it alone.
Delightful flavors. The ginger and cinnamon are strong, but not at all overwhelming. I used low fat condensed milk instead of adding milk and sweetener... This made for an awesome experience!
A really good cup of chai. Try it with honey and soy milk!
I usually make my own chai tea, but this is an actual tea (not instant) with no sugar added, so I decided to give it a try. It has a wonderful spicy taste with just a hint of natural sweetness. So simple compared with mixing my own spices to add.
This tea tastes very strong if no milk or sugar is added, but once they are, it is very delicious. I would definitely recommend this tea to anyone who likes stronger black teas.
Wonderful blend. I love mixing up my usual tea choices with this.
This is a pretty good chai. I wouldn't say I am a big chai fan (when I make it anyway), but this is very aromatic and tasty. Defiantly recommend to those who have never tried. A tea that goes very good milk milk and sweetener.
I was worried that it would taste very intense, as the smell is very potent. It was a lot more smooth than I expected. The cloves are definitely the star of this cup, but I liked it. I used warm milk.
This was not quite what I expected, but was still a great cup of tea.
A nice chai. Not the spiciest chai I've tasted - maybe medium spice. I like it brewed strong with some cream and sugar.
This chai tastes completely authentic, just like your local Indian restaurant will serve. I couldn't stop at one cup. Yum.
This is a very spicy chai blend. It is by far the best of any tea company I have tried.
Really good flavor, but it was almost too strong for me. I liked to mix it with a mate tea to balance it out.
Not nearly as good as several of the other chai. The spices are overwhelming and ruin your pallet. Not smooth at all. If you brew this, you better cut it with another chai and don't brew for the full time.
Just spicey enough. Try adding some packaged tea masala for a really great kick. great on cold days.
This was a good tea, but not fantastic. I think that I prefer the straight black teas.
masala chai tea is very good one of my favorite chai teas
One of my favorites. Spicy, flavorful and caffeinated!
Nice blend of spices. Great on it's own or especially nice with Indian food.
This is a very nicely spiced tea - it's fun to enjoy slowly and try to pick out the different flavor notes in it. It also looks and smells very impressive - I'll be putting some in clear jars and gifting it this season.
My old review seems to have gotten lost in a product catalog shuffle so this is a re-post:
Mmm. This outclasses my previous favorite chai blend, Tazo's loose chai, which this is similar to except better. Chai is all about the spices and this does it right for me, mainly by using cardamom seeds instead of pods. Cardamom may stay freshest in its pod but water can't get into said pod either.
Probably my favorite of the chai teas I've tried from Adagio.
I love, love, love the spice in this tea! It's a great way to unwind at the end of a stressful day. It also gets the blood flowing. I'm definitely buying more of this!
Would use a bit more tea
A very good spiced tea blend, the rich cinnamon and ginger aromas make the cup come alive.
I can't think of a single thing wrong with Masala Chai. My husband in particular is crazy about it and practically kissed my feet when I told him that no, we were not in fact out, because I had already reordered. I like the tip of brewing with milk and will try doing so using almond or coconut milk very soon.
I make this in the saucepan. Water and tea, boil for 5 minutes. And then I add equal part milk. Good spicy tea. Notes of clove dominate if it is steeped too long.
It's fairly simple and if you like any kind of chai, this is the classic without any extra garnishes.
I really like this Chai. I was glad to see it doesn't incorporate pepper into the spice blend. It seems a bit clove-y when you open the bag, but it translates nicely into the cup. I like adding a bit of this to my Irish Breakfast for a more subtle chai.
Delicious. Like the other chais, this can get a little bold if you use too much
A solid masala chai for a very good price. I usually add a touch of sugar or honey, and then a bit of milk to mine to round out the flavors. Highly recommend it.
Excellent as masala chai goes. The spices are well balanced.
For me, this tea is tied to be 'the' favorite with Silver Needle. Just incredible. Though it's great when brewed according to the instructions (add sugar and milk to taste), I actually prefer a method posted by another reviewer - brewing it in milk while heating it on the stove-top, then adding honey. Absolutely Incredible!
Very delicious when steeped in milk or made into a tea latte! On it's own it can get a little bitter but I still love it!
This is a delicious spicy tea best served very sweet with milk. Watch for overbrewing as the flavor of the cloves can take over. I often use this tea as a substitute for dessert.
The perfect chai tea flavor. Great blend of spices.
This chai blend is very good. Not a lot of strong spice flavors besides the basics, and I threw in a cayenne pepper while it was brewing, but still delicious. Brew strong and mix with sugar and milk.
