I looove chai, but generally choose to make a sort of pseudo-chai using just the spices, so as to refrain from consuming the caffeine. Feeling a bit woogy this morning I thought I’d give this chai a go- and it’s pretty mediocre. Just … vaguely chai spiced. (Not as good as the masala chai from SpecialTeas). I thought the cinnamon chips would stand out, but I don’t taste them at all.
Chai is, however, really great for soothing the tummy.
I accidentally oversteeped this one, and it still tastes a bit…pale… glad that the black tea didn’t turn bitter.
You know, the tea bag seemed a bit under-filled. I know a cup of tea always uses far less loose tea than I expect, but it still looked a bit sad. Revolution teas are always overpackaged, but they’d make good stocking stuffers or care-package add-ons. I’m gravitating towards tea bags as I am heading off to a scary language-intensive training program that involves living in a dorm. I am far too old for dorm living.

you don’t seem to be having much luck with Revolution Tea
Nah, they’re all fairly crappy so far. Totally unimpressed.
Which others have you tried so far!? There are a few I like!!!!

Try giving this one a whirl. If I had any left in my stash I would gladly send it your way…but…I’m fresh out…sorry!
This brand has some promise (I almost liked the alpine berry… almost) – http://steepster.com/companies/two-leaves-and-a-bud
hee hee to “feeling a bit woogy” I was with you on the woogy feeling this am.
@TeaEqualsBliss Mmmm ginger peach does sound good- I have liked their orange-cocoa green before and their earl grey lavender, but that was it among those I’ve tried.
@Kristin- I think I’ve tried some teas from that company before- they used to sell them at one of the student UofChicago shops.
@SoccerMom – even though I am safely indoors I am blaming the weather ;)
