Twinings Chai Tea, Tea Bags, 20-Count Boxes
I really like Chai tea, but this Twinings is so-so. It is very weak chai, so I use two or three bags per cup (12oz cup). The minty after taste is not to my liking either. The Stash Chai is much better imo.

The teabag has all the ingredients to make a good tasting tea..but the tea itself is ~very weak~. so I am not buying this anymore.
ReplyDeletejust buy regular tea and add the following to it
Cardamom
Cloves
Black peppercorn
Saunf (fennel seeds)
and it will taste much better.

I have a love/hate relationship with Twinings teas. Unfortunately, the two I love best have been discontinued (Vanilla Black Tea and Indian Spiced Chai Tea). Since this tea claims to combine vanilla and chai, I decided to try it.
ReplyDeleteIt is remarkably bland and frankly, the chai spices are barely perceptible, whereas the vanilla taste is non-existent. It is not a particularly potent tea either. I also agree that there is an odd, slightly fishy taste to this tea. I will finish the box (I started putting cinnamon sticks in it to give it some flavor), but this was a real miscalculation on Twinings' part. I wrote them about it and they didn't even bother to reply. My guess is I am not the only one disappointed by this tea, and since it isn't exactly cheap, my advice would be to look elsewhere if you want chai tea.

I'm a total chai tea freak, so when I see a chai tea that I haven't tried yet I pick it up.
ReplyDeleteTwinings isn't bad at all, but there's just not enough "chai" in the tea. It's basically a black tea with the barest hint of chai spice.

This is by no means a strong tea, it was not meant to be. The flavor is great. I normally make my tea from scratch but have these around when I am on the run. The price is very reasonable and I will certainly be purchasing more. For something a bit different, I certainly recommend you give this tea a try.
