Chai Tea is based on a black tea, and blended with cardamom, cloves, coriander, sweet cumin seeds, curry leaves, lemon grass, and rampe leaves. It is best enjoyed with milk and sugar to taste.

Chai is so prevalent in India and Sri Lanka that it could be called their "National Drink".

The word "chai" literally means tea. Often, a lower quality tea is used to make chai blends, as it is thought the spices will cover-up any deficiencies in the tea. We do not believe in this method, and prefer to make our dry tea chai mix from real Indian spices and high-grown Ceylon tea.

When you receive your tea, be sure to turn the package upside down a few times. The reason is that during transit, the spices can settle at the bottom, and not infuse as wonderfully as intended.
