White Chai from The Persimmon Tree

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend

67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 2nd, 2014

The aroma starts out with a strong note of dried apples giving it a blend of sweet and just a hint of tart, this moved onto pepper, cloves, a but of cinnamon, and just a touch of cardamon and coconut at the finish. It certainly smells like a chai, but it has a tropical edge from the coconut and a much milder spice prof...

Oct. 30th, 2014

The aroma from my little pile of CTC leaves and spices is sweet, spicy, and malty! There is a strong ginger note, a moderately strong note of cardamon, and lastly a mellow note of malt and a finish of cinnamon.

This is a very mellow Chai, taken traditionally with milk (ok I use Half & Half since I love creaminess) ...

African Chai from JusTea

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Kenya

80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 4th, 2014

Very sweet and very spicy are the first things I notice when appreciating this tea. The leaves and spices are a beautiful combination of colors...pardon me while I ogle this tea for a moment. The aroma blends earthiness, floral (mostly rose), pepper, and fennel notes with little hints of licorice and coriander for a po...

Desi Masala Chai from Tea People

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Assam, India

83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 5th, 2014

The aroma of the tea is expectantly spicy, deliciously so, I would go as far as mouth-wateringly so, but it is no secret that I go gaga for spices. The Assam is rich and malty with notes of molasses as well, it is quite sweet, also the spices are strong but well balanced. None of this cinnamon elbowing its way to the f...

Chocolate Chai from Wegmans

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend

83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 1st, 2014

The aroma is a happy dance of sweet chocolate, rich spices, and nutty coconut. It reminds me a bit of xocolatl but with coconut and the earthiness of black tea. This tea smells delicious.

The taste is malty and chocolaty with a gentle kick of cinnamon. It moves on from the initial malt and chocolate to rich buttery...

83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 24th, 2014

he aroma is quite yummy and evocative of autumn. The allspice and ginger are the most prominent aroma with the cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg dancing around in the background, and there is a nice malty undertone. It blends the spices with bright black tea aroma that is nothing short of mouthwatering.

Tasting time! As p...

Vanilla Chai Black Tea from Bigelow Tea

Style: Vanilla Chai – Region: ?????

43 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 20th, 2014

The aroma is sweet and creamy with a nice blend of spices. Steeping the teabag brings out the vanilla creaminess and reminds me of non dairy vanilla creamy. Not much in the way of tea aroma at all.

The taste is kinda like non dairy vanilla creamer as well, but with a nutty quality and a hint of spices. Not terrible ...

Pu-erh Chai from Golden Moon Tea

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????

90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 8th, 2013

The aroma is a wonderful mix of earthiness and spice, especially cardamon. Once brewed the flavor becomes earthy, loamy, and spicy. It reminds me of a spiced forest floor. The brewed tea has an oaky aroma also with cardamon.

The taste is sweet with notes of cardamon, loam, earthy, oak, and a hint of cinnamon. With ...

Holiday Chai Black Tea from Stash Tea

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????

83 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 24th, 2013

The best part of this tea is the aroma, so many wonderful spices that are nostalgic and wonderful. You can even smell the hint of Rum.

The taste is mild and well balanced with the spices, luckily no one thing overpowers which can be a problem with cinnamon heavy teas.

Chai Masala Tulsi Tea from Organic India

80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 21st, 2013

The aroma on this Chai is delightful! A mix of earthiness, peppery, cloves, and something I am not familiar with which I am assuming it is the Tulsi.

The taste is also quite good, the masala blend is well balanced and the base tea is very mild. I really like the herby taste of the tea and think it blends well with ...

Mtn High Chai from Two Leaves and a Bud

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Assam, India

60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 20th, 2013

The aroma of this tea is delightful! The smell is sweet and spicy, very rich with lots of clove.

Sadly the aroma and the taste did not match, I found the tea underwhelming. Still a nice clove taste but really that is it. I am sadly disappointed.

Spiced Apple Chai from Adagio Teas

60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013

So many spices and appley goodness! It is like a perfect Apple cider with a Masala style zing. It is perfect for a cold morning. The aroma or both the leaves and the liquid is like autumn, all apples and warm spices. My only complaint is that the apple cider taste seems to drown out the tea making it more like drinking...

Chocolate Chai from Adagio Teas

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon

67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 12th, 2013

This chai is not bad but it is also not very overwhelming. I was hoping for more of a rich spicy chai with a chocolate zing but it was mainly a mild chai with more chocolate aroma than taste.
