Holiday Chai

Distinctly weaker than other Stash chais. Come on, the holidays is a time for MORE of an explosion of flavor, not less! That said, I’m not sure how to do a holiday chai since regular chai has so many typically “holiday” flavors (cinnamon, nutmeg, etc.) I’ll stick with Stash’s Double Spice Chai.

Super good! I put in milk and sugar and it’s perfect for drinking in the cold weather! It tastes a bit like apple cider to me for some reason, like fruity almost.

Without the milk It came off a dense black tea will, heavy but no emotion. Will definately try with milk next time.

Not bad… Nice color, fast brew time with strong, individually wrapped bags. Its okay, when you’re really in the mood for that set of flavors, but I think the rum flavoring enhanced the bitter tea flavor, and it overpowered the chai spices. The addition an extra pinch of chai spice fixed the problem for me, but that might be a hassle in the future when trying to use tea bags for convenience purposes.

I always do my chai half soymilk with honey and a spoonful of sugar. This was nice. Didn’t have a real strong chai taste, but it was like a cookie. Very sweet in its own right. Understandable for holiday!

My favorite chai in Stash’s chai sampler. Then again, I’m not a fan of chai in general, but I do like “holiday” flavors, so that’s probably why. Smells nutmeggy and wonderful, like a pumpkin pie. The spices aren’t too brash in the tea but like some of the other reviewers I can’t quite taste the black tea. I’m not complaining, though—I like the effect. Definitely gets me in the holiday spirit…in July. Whoops.

So good; tastes like rum and eggnog in chai tea! I miss it so much when its not the holidays!

First time I tried this tea was at Christmas, my parents know I love chai so they figured they’d get some for me. I was a little skeptical because usually I only get the spiced/double spice chai from stash, but I was very pleasantly surprised! With a bit of milk and sugar this is most definitely one of my favorite teas, it smells amazing and tastes just as good.

Smell: mainly cloves.
Taste: The flavour is light (3 min steep), but spicey (mainly cloves). Steeping longer would be too much for me. There is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste (that may be from too hot water).
Overall: not bad, for a black tea.

Virtually no flavor. Run far, far away from this tea.

Delicious!
