From Stash Tea

Stash Green Chai Spice lends a modern twist to the traditional Chai by blending Lung Ching or Dragonwell Chinese green tea with cinnamon, whole cloves, cardamom, ginger root and sarsaparilla. The result is a flavorful and spicy tea that goes well with milk and sugar and may be enjoyed any time of the day. Chai can be both calming and stimulating.

Tip: For traditional Chai tea, brew with 7 ounces of water. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1 ounce of milk (for a creamier drink use one ounce of canned evaporated milk).

Ingredients: green tea, cinnamon, clove, ginger root, sarsaparilla, natural cinnamon flavor, clove oil, cardamom oil

Steeping Instructions: 1-3 minutes at 170-190 degrees Fahrenheit

This was my wake up cuppa this morning. I was super-sleepy and not too much in a hurry to wake up, so I didn’t want something with an overwhelming in-your-face kind of flavor. This was a good choice, and it’s been awhile since I’ve had it. I was pretty surprised that the chai flavor came through so nicely with the green tea. I love chai tea, so I enjoy the bold spiciness and was worried that the green tea wouldn’t carry that as well as a black tea. Not the best chai flavor ever, but part of that could be because it is a teabag. Overall a lighter, more wispy chai tea and it energized me just the right amount for the rest of my day.

I decided to give this one a shot because I need something warming. Turns out, it is NOT AT ALL like the regular chai black tea from Stash! This one is actually tolerable! Maybe it’s because I steeped it a full 5 minutes? I don’t know, but I’m digging it. At least right now. Because it’s like 40 degrees outside, and I’m FREEZING! It’s got a nice and spicy bite from the ginger, and you can really taste the cardamom and cinnamon. Not too shabby, at least for Stash!

The spicing is nice, but the tea part of this is pretty wimpy. Meh.

A new bag. Ok, now bear w/ me. I’m going to attempt to make this chai w/ milk. I’ve never added milk to a green chai before. I just can’t fathom the combo. So here it goes…

1 bag (steeped an extra min to compensate for the milk) steeped in 3oz water, then added 3oz milk and reheated.

Ok… Um… Ew… The liquor (is it still called that when it’s part milk?) is a yellowy-green color that makes it look really raunchy except for it isn’t chunky.

The aroma is that of a very light chai, but I don’t smell the milk so I’m absolutely thrilled!

Ok… Um… Wow… I’m shocked… This didn’t make me puke! The spices come across 1st, then the creamyness of the milk (but no hot milk taste thank God), and last the green tea. I’m surprised that can be tasted.

Conclusions: Not nearly as horrible as I expected, but I wouldn’t drink it this way again. Milk spoils the wonderful flavor of the green tea.

added about 1/3tsp matcha in 1.5 oz warm milk to this tea to give it depth, sweetness, color, and TEA taste. By itself it’s too thin and the spices overpowering. With the matcha and milk it’s drinkable, but still nothing special. I’m keeping a few bags on hand for blending experiments like this, but overall it’s in my giveaway pile.

I had bought this awhile back with high hopes, and I was also disappointed.

Trying this for the first time was quite a shock — way too much cinnamon & cloves to the nose, so strong to the point I questioned whether I wanted to make a cup with it or not. Alas, the taste is just as overpowering. There is too much cinnamon & cloves to let the nutmeg, ginger & cardamon shine in harmony with them. It’s like someone slapped me upside the head with a branch of that cinnamon tree instead of singing the the flavors of chai.
Don’t get me wrong; I’m a big fan of cinnamon & cloves (and the rest of the spices), in fact I’ll add them at the drop of a hat to most recipes. In comparison, I really enjoy the RoT White Chai but this Stash tea goes into my swap pile. #tea

you’ve explained the problem with this tea very well! I’m sadly still stuck with 6-8 bags of it. Getting hit upside the head by a cinnamon tree is no fun :(

I had just recalled drinking this tea over the past weekend.

We had decided to take a trip Saturday to see Taken 2 in a better local theater, so we decided to also have dinner in a favorite seafood place that faces the Pacific Ocean.

Besides the Starbucks Chai latte, I did not have any other tea that day, so I decided to compliment my salmon seafood salad with a green tea.

While steeping, I wasn’t really sure why the green tea didn’t necessarily smell like a proper green tea, as it had a healthy scent of mint.

After about 5 minutes of steeping, I removed the teabag from the tiny pot and noticed the tag read “Chai Green”.

I kind of laughed, as it wasn’t a green tea I had asked for, but I don’t mind Chai teas at all… but I do mind Chai teabags.

The flavor is a little off, as it is trying to be two things it can’t, and there isn’t enough of either to give a concrete body or actual flavor.

You cannot taste the green tea, let alone smell it, and the Chai spices are barely there, giving it quite a weak flavor.

The teabag had a stronger scent than it’s proposed flavor, but fortunately I didn’t really have any expectations.

I should have used sugar as well.

Found this hiding in a drawer at my house. I wasn’t sure what to expect. I’d never made a green chai before. It sounded odd, but with a try. It smelled so good out of the pouch! I was disappointed though. It smelled plenty strong but the taste was pretty weak. I’ve brewed several chips and I still can’t get it right.

I know this can’t be my fault, because I’m perfectly perfect in every way.

I’ll keep it here at work. I’m building up a collection of tea bags in my locker. It’s too hard to brew loose leaf here!

Ok, so I admit to drinking this tea when I’m in a hurry and can’t take the time to ‘set-up’ my loose-leaf suff or ran out of it. Or when I have short work days like today. :D I do enjoy this tea for what it’s worth. Add two cubes of sugar & some milk & way we go. With mug in hand – working 1/2 day – we’re set to go.
Happy 4th of July :D!

Ack! No good tea at work! I forgot to bring in some teas. This has been sitting at work for sometime, forgotten. And for good reasons. It’s gross. I feel like I need to put some spiced rum in it to kill the spicy metallic taste of bad green tea. That’s not a good sign if I feel like I need to add something to my tea in order to make it taste better. Big thumbs down to this. But I need some tea this morning, and this is all I got. Thinking of running out to grab a Tea’s Tea.

Maybe it had been sitting too long? Mine wasn’t anything like that.
