Last tea of my bagged chai trio!
This one has an obvious rooibos scent, but thankfully the sour wood note is not present in the taste. I would say this tea is very balanced in the spices department and the rooibos seems to add a natural sweetness to the cup. I’ve gone through an entire tin of this now and I’m still not sure how much I actually like it. I do think this is a rooibos done correctly (for me, that is a rooibos that doesn’t taste like rooibos). I wouldn’t go out of my way to get more of this one, but I would probably pick some up if I ran across it.
None of my chai trio teas have been typical chais and I’m still not sure that I need to have any of them constantly in stock. So perhaps this experiment has been a failure since the point was to pick the one I really liked….a big, tasty failure. I still think the best chai I’ve had was RoT’s Green Chai, although I’m sure there are better ones out there.
