This is quite spicy, so I like it. However, the ratio of black tea to spice is incredibly low, so I found this has almost no body if brewed in water. I like to brew it in apple juice or milk for a stronger flavor.

First off, I love this tea. It’s a staple in my stash at work. However, if you’re looking for a rich chocolate flavor or a super spicy chai, this isn’t it. It’s very mild so I’m able to taste the black tea more. I like it even though I usually prefer a much spicier chai.

Edit: I tried using two teabags, and found this tea so much more to my liking. It’s full bodied, has a good flavor, and just overall better with two teabags. I don’t like the excessive amount of “settlement” at the bottom of my cup, but I can deal with that.

I found Cozee Teas by accident when I was in the area for a Saturday. I walked in, because how do you not at least walk into a tea shop?

I found this tea on sale, and after smelling it, I knew I had to add it to my collection. I love fruity teas, especially black teas. I did love that I could differentiate both the fig and apple taste. Both were an excellent complement for the mild black tea.

This is a comforting tea I drink in the middle of the day.

I was so excited to see this on DavidsTea website a while back. I had just bought an absurd amount of tea the couple of days before, so I waited a month or two to buy this.

Once I finally received this tea, I opened the bag and took a deep whiff. Holy stars in heaven, it smelled beyond fantastic. The ginger and the cinnamon are the main players in the light, complex spicy scent. I didn’t get much of the oolong smell initially.

I typically watch all my teas steep because it’s like a dance to me, the leaves unfolding around the spices moving with the heat currents. It’s a very light green, smooth liquor with a bit of a spicy kick in the back of my throat. It is a little sweet, but I think that helps to balance out the ginger, the cinnamon, and the cardamom. Obviously, without these spices, it wouldn’t be chai, but they can be a bit overpowering and the stevia leaf really helps bring out more of the oolong. Others have said that it’s a bit watery or weak, but I’ve never found that to be the case. Of course, I usually use almost 2 tsp of dry tea and steep a bit longer than average, simply because I do love big-body teas.

In short, the favorite for the semi-long foreseeable future :)
