This is my favorite tea bar none. I am a fall flavors fanatic and will eat, drink, or otherwise consume anything with the spicy goodness of this tea. It is strong, but oh-so good, and reminds me of the good times (i.e. the holidays). It is on the expensive side, but worth every penny to me.
As another reviewer has shown me, I now give my ratings of other teas to show readers of this review what my tastes are.

Wow, this tea is SPICY! This is one to wake you up in the morning! This is definitely a full and robust tea. I found it to be a little too strong for my liking, so I just use less tea and put in a splash of milk for a chai latte. Personally, I found that sugar ruins the taste - this tea really does not benefit from any kind of sweetener. Chai and oolong truly make a unique cup. Since oolong is often an acquired taste, I recommend that you try before you buy, but it's absolutely worth it.

I brought some to work along with my new Teavana mug and LOVE it! I used to drink coffee most days and now have a cup in the morning and in the afternoon right after lunch. It's a perfect pick-me-up.

I typically buy Rooibus Chai to blend with MateVana, but my store was out so they recommended I this try. I wasn't 100% sure about it because of the pepper so I only purchased 2oz. I have to say I really enjoy it blended with the MateVana and would definitely buy it again. I can't truly compare it to the Rooibus Chai as it's completely different. This tea definitely has a spice to it that I don't find in the Rooibus Chai, but it's not at all overwhelming. I also have the Coco Caramel Sea Salt which is delicious blended with this! Since the Coco Caramel Sea Salt is already pretty sweet, I would only add a small amount of sugar to enhance this blend. All in all, I will definitely add this Chai to my tea rotation.

I tried a sample of this at the Teavana in the Mall of America, and had to get some of my own. I've never been a fan of tea in general, since most that I've tried seems more like vaguely flavored hot water than an actual drink.
Overall, I really like the flavor of this tea. It's got a nice blend of sweetness with just a hint of spice. However, I've found that the instructions that come with it (1tsp/8oz) make it a little weak for my taste, so I've been making it with about 1tsp/6oz instead. I will say that it leaves a little bit of spicy tingle in one's mouth, but it's not at all unpleasant, and I enjoy having a cup at the end of a long day. I'm just starting out in the tea world, though, so I wonder if there are teas with similar spices but a bit more 'kick' to them?

Great tea - hold up well all day. I brew a BIG pot for breakfast and pour often for the rest of the day. I use milk and honey and my tea is every bit as pleasant cooler, later, as it was moments after brewing [always best, of course!]. The strong mix of spices never fails to delight.

Delicious but brews differently sometimes. Some times, it's too strong, sometimes it's too weak.

This tea packs a PUNCH! I love it! I must admit though, I am rather obsessed with cinnamon. I usually double up the Apple Cinnamon tea bags from Celestial Greetings to make the flavor more intense.
That being said, if you enjoy cinnamon and strong spicy teas, you will LOVE this one. Also, you don't need to add more tea than suggested either! Admittedly, I assumed I would- so I added too much. It was still delicious, but I did need to water it down with some almond milk. Although it has a strong spicy flavor, it is still sweet- which I love.
This tea tastes like liquid cinnamon hearts, conveniently warming your hands at the same time :). Favorite tea thus far!! :)

This is chai. If you are used to dusty, dessicated bags of L----n, then you will be confused. This blend is spicy and complex.
The clove is wonderfully prominent. I am a big cardamom fan and wish it were as forward as the clove. I can't do much dairy, but it works well when brewed strongly and mixed with almond milk. For a treat, add condensed milk.
This is definitely something to enjoy anytime, but especially after a savory meal or as a morning jolt.
