Another sample from the generous Will. This one was really nice. A little bit of a kick to the chai, but not SUPER strong. The clove taste didn’t overpower (i hate that in chai’s) and the ginger was really great. I am always a fan of ginger related teas and this one is no exception. Also a really interesting constrast from the floral which has that sour pop and freshness to it. this is more heavy, spicy… i think this would be pretty great in winter, especially brewed up in some milk! thanks will!

Thank you for the sample, Will!

Brewed with hot water and then heated whole milk. Used half a teaspoon of powder for each, 6 ounces for each liquid, boiling.

Hot water: Spicy. Not adding milk allows the spices to fully come through. They compliment the woody note that the rooibos gives. There is a ginger snap cookie aftertaste.

Heated whole milk: The spices are muted somewhat, but the milk adds a cozy and creamy taste, texture, and feeling. This infusion is more like ginger snap cookie in liquid form. Masala chai drinker-Dad said it was “distinctive”, and that it’s “good as cocoa.”

This is for the winter solstice, not the summer solstice. In all aspects. Don’t drink it today. /melts

I really enjoyed this one!

OH MY. This was so good! The rooibos isn’t really obvious. I get a hint of cinnamon, a little clove, and the ginger is like the bow on top, wrapping it all together. My daughter was nearby and asked to taste it, and I didn’t think I would get it back from her. Her advice was to take a drink and then breathe out through my nose, and I tried that. Pure ginger bliss. It wasn’t overpowering, just deliciously fresh. I could see getting this one again.

I enjoyed the hearty aroma that this tea gave off. It warmed my heart and gave my clogged noise a nice wake up call.
