Description
This masala chai is the perfectly blended concoction of the fine Organic Nilgiris black tea and spices that come together to create a delightfully flavourful and aromatic brew. Spices like cardamom, ginger, cloves and cinnamon are used in unique combinations to create an aromatic masala tea that can appease the palate of even the pickiest tea-drinkers.
This chai is made of BOP (broken orange pekoe) leaves which tend to infuse slowly, allowing the leaves to open and give out their full flavor. Meanwhile, the spices are taking sweet time to enrich the concoction with mildly pungent aroma.
It’s truly one of the best well balanced chai teas we’ve tasted.
Liquor
This Nilgiris chai offers a light-colored infusion and a fresh, flowery aroma. This highly acclaimed classic has a certain astringency and gentle spiciness that sets it apart from the rest more intense chai blends on the market.
