Madame Flavour - Sultry Chai



I really like this brand (especially the mint lavender flavour). 
Chai is not my usual pick because I don't put milk in my tea and I feel the flavours would benefit from it.

This one is a black tea (Ceylon and Assam) with cinnamon, cardamon, fennel, ginger, clove, safflower, and Australian Mountain Pepper leaf.

I opened the packet and ... the tea bag was broken. 
It was a manufacturing error but I was able to work with it.



It smells lovely and spicy (as in pertaining to spice, not hot).

The taste? Very smooth and well blended.
It isn't jarring like some chai teas I have tried before.

If you are looking for a good chai, try this one!

Thanks Miss Buttons! :)

Price: 4.5/5 ($5.80 for 18 bags)

Tea Advent Calendar - Day 13 - 8 Sinnesfreuden (8 Sensual Pleasures)


It kind of looks like Jupiter XD




This tea has
Darjeeling tea SFTGFOP1 (Super Fine Tippy Golden Flowery Orange Pekoe) , Assam tea Tippy Golden, Golden Yunnan black tea, Keemun black tea, natural aroma, cranberry, yellow marigold, and strawberry.



It tastes ...ok. As with many 'flavoured' balck teas though, this is really more of a scent than a taste.


Also, why put nice teas in this if your just going to put flavour over it? Why blend it?
