drank Bombay Chai by Tea Forte

Brewed 5 min. 1 Tsp raw Sugar. Hot.
The pepper in the mix I feel is misplaced. The rest of the blend is very complimentary but there is a bitter under current that takes me out of the pleasurable experience.
Chai shouldn’t have black pepper in it.

Haven’t tried this one. The only chai I like black pepper in is the Wissotzky Chai Masala, it blends but doesn’t overpower – maybe because there are so many other strongish spices as well.

Actually traditionally Masala chai is supposed to have black pepper in it – in moderation.
