Hot, this tea is magical. It’s warm, full-bodied and really strong.There are chais that are more herbaceous, more floral, and then there are chais that are more peppery, and this is the latter. This tea is smooth and not sweet at all. However, once it cools, it becomes really bitter and astringent. The body of the tea also becomes sort of powdery as it cools, which is not my favourite. I don’t love to drink my teas with milk, but this might be better served as an actual chai rather than black, which is how I take it.

Flavors: Cardamom, Cloves, Coriander Seed, Ginger, Peppercorn

Preparation
195 °F / 90 °C 3 min, 30 sec 2 tsp 10 OZ / 300 ML

More tea, vicar?
