Huh, very interesting tea. What looks to be a Chinese green tea but the origin is from Germany which I think is a little strange.

The flavoring in this blend is pretty potent, in addition to the natural spices there is also an artificial flavor of some kind. I am getting LOTS of cinnamon which somewhat obscures the other stuff in here. There is a lot of ginger, which I don’t mind but I’m having a more difficult time finding the cardamom. It did take soymilk well.

Overall, not bad. I would probably drink this if I had it, but I think I’ll keep looking elsewhere. The cinnamon in this blend is a little overwhelming to me.

I have their Rooibos Chai and that is a product of Germany as well. I imagine that’s where the tea is blended. I wonder if TG is their German source?

I suppose anything is possible, I don’t actually see a green chai on the TG site myself. There might be a few other importers.

It is because their source tea is blended there. :)) I doubt if TG is their vendor.
