Chai me up

Add a little guarana to high-quality black tea that’s flavoured with ginger, cinnamon and anis, and you’ve got a seriously tasty burst of energy. Guarana is a highly stimulating tropical berry, making for a delicious way to wake up and get energized. You’ll definitely fall in love with it, either as a plain black tea or steeped in hot milk.

Ingredients: Fair Trade Certified Indian black tea, guarana seeds, anise, cinnamon, ginger, maté.

I received this in a box of DAVID’s teas I bought from TeaPet. Thank you!

I like chai, but unfortunately the more tea I drink the more I dislike cinnamon. The only thing I got out of this tea as cinnamon. I am glad I got to try this, but this one is not for me.

Hmmm, this was interesting. The guy at Davids said it was good, and i just wanted to buy something because #examtherapy and I’m bad at decisions. I’m not upset at my decision actually; I really, really love ginger, and there’s quite a lot of that in here (also, it helps with period <3). What I don’t love, however, is the cinnamon, which I always find tastes weird in Davids blends. Also, just a pet peeve of mine: when chai does not have cardamom. I love cardomom. I wish it was used everywhere, in everything.
Despite the fact that this one gets kind of bitter easily, it didn’t taste too bad, and was pretty energizing. A pretty okay break from my study oolong tea.

Steepster took out the middle half of my note and won’t let me add it in…???? I give up.

May benefit from a longer infusion time. I can taste the anise. Overall, flavour is dilute and slightly thin-tasting. Mouthfeel on the aftertaste is slightly reminiscent of grainy texture. Nice cinnamon flavour, balanced well with other flavours. Slight peppery spice but not spicy. Something in this brew reminds me of strong pu-erh flavour.

this tea is definitely strong. For me, that is a good thing. The guarana gives it that extra kick. It might need a little sugar (I put in a single cube) though, as the guarana gives it a taste that’s more bitter than most chais. It’s strong taste means that I can successfully resteep the leaves at least twice.
