Chocolate Chai from Wegmans

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend

60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 12th, 2014

I like chai teas, but this is the first chocolate chai that I've tried. The aroma is mostly overpowered with cinnamon. Alex advised me to take out the chocolate chunks because he thought they would ruin the tea brewer, so I did, but I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to. Anyway, I didn't taste the chocolate flavor mu...

I like this tea. It has a nice blend of spices. The aroma is characterized by clove. I added cream and sugar. I notice that it's even better with vanilla added.

This tea has a cinnamon flavor that's kind of overpowering. I can still taste the other flavors, and it tastes okay. Maybe a cinnamon enthusiast would like it better. I added cream and sugar.

This tea is pretty good, but it has a dominant spice flavor that I can't tell what it is, and it's a little weird. It tastes a bit tangy. I added cream and sugar.

This tea doesn't smell much like chai, it smells like a combination of orange peel and caramel. I actually really like the flavor, though. I had to brew it for 7 minutes to make it strong enough. The flavors blend together pretty well. I added cream and sugar.

This tea is very aromatic. Even the dry leaf, inside a zip lock bag, emanates its aroma. I like the blend of spices. The flavor is a little more spicy than I'd like relative to the strength of the tea, but overall, I like it. I added cream and sugar.

I usually like chai, but I don't like this tea much. The flavor is kind of bland - I had to brew it for a long time (7 minutes). I can't taste the black tea. The flavor is kind of overpowered by tulsi, which I don't like much in this context, and I don't think it goes well with the spices. I added cream and sugar.

I love this tea! It has a perfect blend of spices, and the base tea is strong enough. By the look of it, it appears to be heavy on cardamom. I added cream and sugar.

This tea smells kind of like mulled cider. The flavor is a little weird with the flowers. I don't usually like floral teas. It took 8 minutes for me to brew it strong enough. I added cream and sugar.

This chai has a weak tea flavor, even after brewing it for a long time. The dominant flavor is of ginger, and it's a little too much for me. Overall, it's okay. I added cream and sugar.

I think this tea is too heavily spiced, and doesn't have a strong enough tea flavor in comparison. Also, there's something off about the blend of spices, but I don't know what it is. Maybe it's the red pepper. I added cream and sugar.

This tea is awesome. It has a wonderful smoky flavor that blends perfectly with the vanilla and dominant clove flavor. It's the best chai I've tasted yet. I added cream and sugar.

I steeped this tea for 6 minutes to make it strong enough. When I first tasted it, I thought it was a little too tangy for my taste, and that the combination of chai spices with white tea was a little weird. I can't taste the spices much, though, for a chai tea. I added cream and sugar. After I had been drinking it for...

Apr. 22nd, 2011

This is not what I was expecting. It doesn't seem very much like chai, but it has this sweet aroma that reminds me of hot mulled cider. The flavor tastes almost repulsive to me, like flour, or some spice I don't recognize that reminds me of bad-tasting cookie dough. Kind of bitter and sweet, but in a way that clashes. ...

When I first tried this tea, I thought it was reallly good. I wasn't expecting it because I'm not a big fan of green tea, but I do love chai. I thought it was really good for a chai tea. But it takes a really long time to brew. Now that I've been drinking it for a while, I don't like the flavor so much anymore. I don't...

This tea is pretty good, but the cinnamon overpowers it a little. It also has a strong scent of cloves. I like to drink it with cream and sugar.

It tastes a little weak for the recommended 3 minute steep time, but a good balance of tea and spices. It smells predominantly like tea. I like to drink it with cream and sugar.

I like this tea a lot, even though I didn't follow the steeping instructions exactly for the perfect cup, which involve dancing with a loved one while the tea is steeping. But the tea still turned out very good. I like to drink it with sugar and cream.

This tea is very good. It smells a little bit smoky. It tastes rich and creamy. I always drink my chai with cream and sugar, but this tea tastes creamier than other teas do when I add cream.

This tea has a pleasant vanilla flavored aroma. It's very good. It has a perfect blend of spices, although a little more cinnamon that I would like. I had to steep it for 6 minutes to get it strong enough, and with most teas I only need 3 minutes. I like to drink it with cream and sugar.

This is a pretty good chai tea, but not as good as other ones I've had. A little heavy on the black pepper - it makes it taste a little funny. I like to drink it with cream, sugar, and vanilla.
