The first time I tried this tea, I’ll admit I was slightly disappointed. When you open the tin, it’s got a fantastic (if slightly strong) fruity smell.
Once brewed, it loses a lot of that fragrance and comes up a bit short on flavor.
It does make a nice, light green iced tea in the summer.
Before I discovered the wider world of loose leaf teas available to me, it was always on my shelf. Now I’m trying to use up the tin I have so I can experiment with other options.
Tasty, standard chai tea. Nothing really outstanding, but nothing bad about it either.
This one is actually one of my summer time must-haves. I enjoy it hot as well as iced.
It can have a fairly strong lemon flavor to it if steeped too long, but I love lemon so that isn’t a big problem for me.
I’ve also enjoyed just picking bits of fruit from the tin while I wait for my water to boil.
Delicious as usual
No notes yet.
This tea smells almost overpoweringly fruity in the tin. When brewed, it has the taste and smell of a floral green tea – I almost completely lose the cherry taste/smell. This isn’t a bad thing as I quite enjoy this as a green tea. I just think the initial smell is a bit misleading.
I typically make my own chai, but this is a great substitute on those days I don’t have the time to do it the long way.
