I can definitely see why everyone rated this so highly! I love spicy chais; however, I was not sure how I would feel about this one since the ingredients seem so simple. Yet again, I am not sure what magic is going on here, but I have noticed Deb has this exceptional ability to make simple ingredients taste super extra, lol!

Smell: This smells SO good. The coconut and cardamon stand out the most to me. It smells very creamy, tropical, and almost like a holiday in a bag.
Prep: I added like 2 tablespoons, brewed it up into a concentrated tea, and added honey and milk
Taste: It has a predominantly roasted coconut taste with slightly warm, spicy notes. The most prominent note that I am tasting is, again, the cardamon. I believe this takes milk very well, as other users have said. This sure makes a darn good latte. I wish it was a tad bit spicer since the ginger and other notes are subdued.

Overall, I really liked this! I could see myself purchasing more of it.

Hello everyone!

So, how did I get into tea? I think I have always had a fascination with tea. But I really got obsessed with it after watching Avatar: The Last Airbender. I loved how Uncle Iroh used tea as a way to both practice self-care and connect with others.

I aspire to do the same through my tea endeavours.

My Favourite Canadian Small Tea Businesses: (Thus far! As I explore new tea brands, I am sure this list will grow)

Dessert by Deb
The Tea Haus
The Chai Brewing Company

My Preferred Preparation:
For black teas, I prefer the stove-top method with milk and sugar. For all other teas and herbal infusions, I usually prefer having them hot without any add-ins. However, I do like an occasional iced tea! Especially for some fruity or floral blends.

My Tea Preferences:
I enjoy flavoured teas more than straight teas; however, I do have a soft spot for traditional green or oolong teas.

Favourite Flavours:
- Masala chai (cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and other warming spices!)
- Cream
- Mint
- Tropical fruit (lychee, mango, pineapple)
- Maple 
- Orange
- Roasted/smokey
- Caramel
- Floral (especially jasmine)
- Honey
- Nuts (hazelnut, almond)
- Sweet potato
- Fall fruits (apples, cranberries)
- Earl Grey
- Vanilla bean

Least Liked Flavours:
- Anything that tastes too artificial (especially vanilla or chocolate!)

- Tart (too much hibiscus)

- Ginseng

- Guarana powder 

- Coconut oil (or oily teas)

- Red rooibos
