Samurai Chai Mate & White Ayurvedic Chai Blend from Teavana
100

There is a reason why I rate this tea the highest among all teas I’ve ever had.

Most black teas, and black tea blends especially, have a certain astringency to their flavor, which in certain points adds more than anything to the overall enjoyment.

But, there can be so much you can take, not only with these certain characteristics of black tea but also with how specific flavors need to cooperate to harmonize the overall taste.

At times, you can really miss the brightness of a really great white tea, and the subtle detailing of a really great white tea blend.

This tea is consistently and deliciously bright and cheerful, with bursts of spices over lemon grass and citrus, always a great way to start, continue or end any day.

The spices also give a delightful kick if enjoyed after a 10-15 minute cooling, hot but not scalding hot.
