I’ve been on a chai kick this winter and picked up the Teabox’s Chai sampler during it’s Black Friday Weekend sale. The winners that I’ll be stocking in my cupboard are Maharaja Oolong Chai and Assam Masala Chai.. but right now I’m working on finishing up the samplers. :)

Super cardamomy as expected and a very strong tea. Definitely requires milk and sugar to tame this beast! I’d say this is one of the strongest chai’s that they have. If you really like cardamom then I would recommend this to you, it’s very tasty but it’s not the blend that I was personally looking for.

This is a pretty straightforward tea. Assam CTC with bits of cardamom pods mixed in. The CTC makes this very dense – my 10g sample package only had about 3tsp in it, and when I weighed out one teaspoon it came out to over 4g. It both smells and tastes of cardamom.

Steeped in 96C water for 4min, it was pretty strong and bitter – not really good straight, but delicious with milk and sugar, as I’d planned. The liquor was a very dark brown, almost coffee-like, and mellowed out to a creamy milk chocolate colour with milk.

An easy, straightforward cup of chai.
