Disappointed when the tea arrived. It is very finely ground, unlike the advertising which shows leaves rather than powder. The taste is fine, but I like to use a glass teapot with built in infuser and the tea is so fine it blocks the holes in the infuser and makes it difficult to clean.

It took quite a lot to get much flavour . Chai being a highly flavoured brew normally. I was a bit surprised . It is still nice. Perhaps if the spices were smaller & a little more tea in the mix . It would be more tasty. As it is , it's quite uneconomical to drink!

Not as 'cinnamony' as the orginal tea my nephew brought back from Nepal, but close enough!
