Product Description
Transport yourself to the palaces of India with every cup of chai black. The journey begins with rich, full-bodied organic Assam black tea from the Assam region of India—one of only two places in the world with native tea plants. To create an authentic, energizing chai, we’ve added a blend of the classic spices of cinnamon, cardamom and ginger, used for centuries in Ayurveda for their warming and cleansing properties. So sit back and savor the exquisite flavor of our alluring chai black. Enjoy it plain, or for a more traditional brew add milk or milk substitute and your favorite sweetener. About the Brand Our story begins in 1969 when Yogi Bhajan, an inspired and inspiring teacher of holistic living, started teaching yoga in America. He shared the wisdom and knowledge of Ayurveda and healthy living that he had mastered in India with his students while serving a specially spiced tea, which they affectionately named "Yogi Tea." The recipe contained five traditional Ayurvedic spices: cardamom seed, cinnamon bark, clove bud, ginger root and black pepper. When blended and brewed, these delicious spices leave you feeling vibrant and alive, while boosting overall well-being. Intrigued by the complex flavor and inherent health benefits of this unique combination of spices, it wasn't long before several of the yogi's students were inspired to brew their own "Yogi Tea." In 1984 this grassroots endeavor blossomed into the Yogi Tea Company. Packages of the rough, dried spices began to appear in natural foods stores throughout Southern California. As demand increased, the spices were more finely ground, packaged and sealed into individual tea bags. By 1986, Yogi Tea was distributed nationwide in three flavors.

  1. Spiced chai is my favorite tea. Yogi is the best tasting brand I've found so far, it's not too strong and not too weak. Best taken with milk. You can drink it without milk but it is much spicier that way. (Sweet Thai Delight is my next favorite from Yogi - try it)!

  3. I've been a chai afficionado for a while, and even more so since my trip to Nepal 2 years ago. There I was able to taste chai both in restaurants and in homes, and I have to say that Yogi's chai is the best and most authentic one I've ever tried.

    I steep it directly in milk every morning, it's a very comforting way to start the day.

    For a non caffeinated version, check out the Redbush chai.

  5. The Yogi's Black Chai is the best and closest in taste to the one brewed back home. It has the right amount of tea and spice flavour.. My biggest concern is that it is out of stock everywhere!
