VAHDAM, Golden Milk Powder/Turmeric Ginger Latte Mix (100g, 40 Cups) Caffeine-Free | Powerful Curcumin, Turmeric Powder & Ginger | Brew Hot/Iced Tea

My first box of this tea came last night. This morning I made my first cup, and I am totally pleased. From some of the reviews I expected this tea to be too spicy or harsh, but I find it a perfectly balance blend of all spices--definitely not too peppery. I like a strong Chai tea, and it seems that there is quite some wiggle room for strength on how much tea I add to my water, but what I had this morning was wonderful. It's so much better than any of the tea bags I have tried, including the "big" names, and I don't buy the liquid Chia mixes. I like being able to control the sweetness. I have an adorable 1 quart vintage Descoware beanpot that I use for brewing my tea, and I filled it with about 20 ounces of water and added about 1 flat teaspoon of tea. I was surprised that the tea didn't color the water - it was fairly unimpressive just sitting on the bottom of the pot, but after the water come to temperature, everything hydrated and I ended up with a lovely pot of dark, fragrant tea. I boiled it for a few minutes, added my milk and unrefined sugar and brought it back to the boil. All told, it took about eight minutes to make enough tea for two large cups--far less time than it took me feed the cats and make my bed. I let the pot simmer on low until I was ready to have my tea, and it was awesome. About an hour later I had my second cup -it was still hot from the cast iron pot and equally wonderful. I totally see why so many people have written to say they have found their perfect Chai tea. It also comes thoughtfully packaged with an extra sealable bag to keep it fresh -the packaging shows pride in product. This won't be the only box I buy, for sure.

I prefer very spicy, strong chai tea. It's been a struggle spanning several years to find the best tea leaves for my flavor preference. This tea is the most flavorful I've found! I DO double the recommended amount, though, and it comes out great every time! SO not a fan of the weak, milky chai that seems to be the more popular kind. This loose-leaf double spiced chai makes it simple to make good-tasting, organic tea at home without relying on artificial concentrates that are heavy on calories and preservatives.

As soon as I opened the vacuum seal, the chai smelled heavenly! When I read the background of the company and the wonderful things they are doing to fairly pay the actual GROWERS, that made it even better.

New review: After spending a few days with the tea I can say that I brew this tea strong (1 and 1/2 tsp to 1 tbsp tea per 8 oz filtered water) let steep only 2-3 min then add to equal measure animal or plant milk . this makes a wonderful Masala Chai . this weekend I try to fully boil-brew the tea and see how it goes. The key was steep time just 2-3 minutes maximum . you can get two steeps out of the tea this way.Original Review: I bought some double spice chai. The box that arrived is nice, containing two small vacuum sealed packages, an extra resealable bag and a few inserts. I brewed up a cuppa using the suggested weight (2g) and filtered water (200 ml) . it has a nice spiced flavor that is blended well. The initial flavor is that of astringent tea really nice with brown sugar and milk which brings out the flavors of cardamon and cinnamon as well!. its astringency cuts through curry taste well and clears the palette too. I will likely add a bit more tea next time but I am happy with my purchase!!!!

very smooth tea to drink great tea have in afternoon.

This tea is SO good! I’m a huge Earl Gray fan and also a huge chai fan so when I saw they had an earl gray chai I had to order. Possibly the best cup of tea I’ve ever had. I boiled 1 cup of water, added 3 teaspoons of loose tea and simmered for 3 min. then added 1 cup of whole milk and simmered for 3 more minutes. I like to add a little splash of vanilla extract and some real maple syrup for sweetness once off the heat. Use a fine mesh strainer and drain over your cup. You just won’t be sorry. Try it!

Item was supposed to come vacuum sealed, however there was a ton of air left in the bag. It comes with a larger mylar bag much like stash and other teas, but for some reason they ship it separate. I'd see the point if they properly vacuum sealed, but they obviously don't.Tea itself was very bitter and stale tasting. Overall this left a very bad taste in my mouth both literally and figuratively for this brand. We will not be buying again if this is how Vahdam ships their product. Can't return due to it being a food item so we just wasted 25 bucks on something going straight to the compost pile.

I love the teas of Vahdam. This tea brews up to have a spectacular flavor. Smooth. I continue to buy this brand and the other flavors offered as well, and have never been disappointed. Treat yourself to a pot of this tea.
