"I have recently discovered chai tea and this is the best discovery yet. A deeply warming yet fresh flavour with a distinct “kick” from the chilli. The chocolate adds a smooth comforting twist to this wonderful mixture. Perfect for a spicy wake up brew or a smooth evening delight."
"I was given a sample of this when I bought some other loose leaf in store - and it is my fav of all the ones I got that day. Have already gone back to buy some more. Really nice warming cup for an autumnal morning, lovely with or without some milk/oat milk Not overpoweringly chocolately/sweet but the cacao nibs give it just such a good flavour, and the warming spices are lovely"
"Such a punch of a tea! This is my favorite morning cuppa. I'll still my trying the other ones Bird & Blend has to offer, but it's going to take some to beat the chilli goodness of this!"
"We love a good chai in our house and this was extra special with the dark chocolate. Such a lovely aroma too. In fact we have ordered more...."
"Tried this tea as both hot latte and cold brew at our local taster session. It's definitely chocolatey but not as chilli as I'd hoped. I do like a kick. Really liked it though and picked some up to take home"
"Years ago this was the very first B&B tea we tried and it’s still a real fave. This is not just a winter tea, it’s a spicy/sweet/velvety cup that has just a kick at the end that’s so nice. We have this as a permanent go to though being honest we have a dozen others lined up but there will always be a caddy full of chilli chai. Please try…. so nice!"
"Don't like the new recipe the old one was far better so this is now off my favourite tea list sadly"
"Tea has a nice kick to it with the spices, perfect for cold weather"
"The recipe has changed very recently, making this a completely different brew. It’s still quite a nice cuppa but definitely does not have the kick it used to, the warming effect or the lovely blend of flavours. . The new black tea takes over and dominates all the other flavours of old, so it does taste like something completely different. I’m not sure I’ll buy again as I loved the uniqueness of the old recipe and this tastes like a standard chai teabag you could buy in a supermarket for a fraction of the price. You can add milk without it going a very pale colour, due to richness of the new black tea, I guess that makes it look better in the cup but that’s about it. Luckily I still had a bit left of the old recipe so I’ve mixed them together to try and enjoy the old recipe for a tiny bit more. On a slight positive note the new recipe isn’t bad, it’s just nothing special. What a shame."
"Rich flavour with spicy kick, my new favourite š"
