English Breakfast Black Tea from Arbor Teas
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5

Masala Chai Black Tea from Arbor Teas
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5

My favorite masala tea so far. The aromas are very pleasant; cinnamon, ginger and cloves predominate. The brew is mild with just a little astringency. Addition of some honey and milk make for a very smooth cuppa to start the morning off.
