drank Morning Chai by Plum Deluxe
1301 tasting notes

Day 7 of the Plum Deluxe Hanukkah sampler. This is just a thoroughly middling chai. The clove is very prominent. There’s a hint of lemon. The base is weaker than I’d expect in a chai – both in color once steeped and in sturdiness relative to the spices. Once I added oat milk, it got even more washed out. I’m curious whether this is the same black tea base that they use for their other blends. I would assume so, but it tends to come off stronger in other blends. Possibly there are too many spices and not enough actual tea?
