From The Chai Brewing Company

India runs on Chai! No matter what city, village or metro you are in, you will always have a Chaiwalla selling piping hot Chai at every nook and corner.

“Cutting” Chai is a term synonymous with ordering a cup (or glass) of tea at these Chaiwallas.

This variation of the Street Style Chai has a bold flavor of CTC (crush, tear curl) tea mixed with ginger, cardamom, and varying spices.

This is your go-to cup if you like your chai strong with bold ginger notes.

Picked this up at last year’s Toronto Tea Festival and just getting around to it now (egads!). It’s spicy, ginger-forward and warming, with a richer tea taste to it than other chai I’ve tried. It’s really good, very enjoyable but I noticed a lot of fennel in it. Luckily, the flavor didn’t transfer too much to the brew. Picky note from me: this chai is a bit more finely chopped, so it tended to clog both my chai pot and the filter in my teapot when I decanted it.
