Opened this by accident tonight. The smell in the tea bag was spicey.
The brew tastes exactly like the vanilla chai minus the vanilla.
Not bad for a decaffeinated tea. I enjoyed it!

My GM order came sometime yesterday, hubby brought the box to me last night! EXCITEMENT! I knew what I was going to drink this morning-YEA
added some milk and viola: perfection in a cup.
second infusion added raw sugar and milk: even better than the first cup:)
This tea is very similar to PG TIPs without the boldness of the Assam. This is a tea I can drink throughout the day with different additions. I hope I continue to love this tea as I purchased half a pound and now today I noticed that GM is having a 15% sale on all their teas…UGH…my timing was off or was it?…as I sip my Sinharaja..eyes closed…ummm.

This is a mild black tea. I did not really get the mango flavor, but overall not a bad tea.

Love this tea. Chocolate and I mean real chocolate tasting not some fake stuff and spice, but just the right amount. This is a tea that I got from the TTB and I have loved it ever since.

Ginger and lemongrass. A winning combo in my book, but not with this particular blend. I agree with AmazonV, it needs lemon cookies or something to accompany it. Overall, not bad, but just not that good either.

This tea was a powdery mess. It took more time to clean my infuser and cup than to decide that this is not my cuppa. I thought I detected licorice, but perhaps it was the V.root..any way not for me:(

I didn’t taste the “pie” part of this tonight, but what I did taste…OMG, did I juice a strawberry? this tea is delightful.

PG tips this morning as I await the arrival of Sinharaja.
I added a few rock crystals and a splash of milk…I felt like the PG monkey as I exclaimed “THAT is GOOD TEA!”

The smell from the bag of tea was hard to tear away from…I measured the leaves, waited 8 minutes and OMG, strawberries, alot of strawberries in my cup! Vanilla creaminess in my cup with Strawberries…Did I mention the strawberries? I love this tea:) My only regret with this tea…IT took me so long to realize I liked honeybush that I avoided this for far too long. mmmm…strawberries, vanilla, cream, oh my.

I added a few rock crystals in the cup while this was brewing. I added a splash of milk and viola: a perfect cup of vanilla chai.
This is one tea I will not run out of, when I start to get close to being out, I buy another box. This one tea has been my go to tea when all else fails to impress my taste buds. Not a fancy tea, but a good one:)
