Spicewalla Masala Chai Spice 2.1 oz | Tea, Latte, Coffee, | Unsweetened Powdered Spice

This is one of those rare products that immediately DELIGHTS a customer. The packaging is a gem; I can see these becoming collectors' items. Like the finest teas, this chai spice is packed in a light- and air-proof tin canister, with a tight-fitting inner lid. Two lids total. As it should be. When you open it, the scent will make you drool like a St. Bernard eyeing a T-bone on the counter. The taste of the chai blend is addictive, with just a touch of ginger and black pepper heat. The cinnamon plays a back-seat role. Ginger, clove, and cardamon predominate. It's a masterful mix.The spices are very finely ground. If you use a tea bag no straining is required. One less step to bliss. Truly a wonderful product, highly recommended.

Great masala for tea and other applications. It's a good amount, and the price is super reasonable given the convenience that you don't need to source ingredients one by one and mess with grinding and recipes.WARNING: it is VERY heavy on the pepper, which I like but I'm not sure it would be suitable for sensitive individuals or children. Even when plenty of milk and sugar are used you can still feel the kick.

Came In packed and in a squarish tin box. Fresh and long shelf life.Had a nice aroma to it when I opened the box.I will say for one cup use 1/4 tsp or so so it’s not overpowering specially if you do t add sugar like me.I made my cup of teabag tea and added 1/4 tsp of it and I liked it.Had hints If ginger but I feel the allspice might be overpowering it a bit and wished it wasn’t there. But I still liked the flavor.

This is a perfect blend of spices and closest you will get to authentic Indian Masala Chai other than grinding all the spices yourself. To those that complain it doesn't dissolve, it is not supposed to. It is ground perfectly to be infused in your tea. It does settle but when it does, those gritty spices have no more flavor. The flavors have been absorbed by the tea. Just don't drink the very bottom of the cup.There is no "cayenne" in this as one reviewer said but has a nice peppery after taste from the black pepper. Ginger is the strongest flavor. I use 1/4 tsp of spice and just a touch of stevia while I steep my black tea for 5 minutes. Then I froth some 2% milk and add it to the tea after removing tea bag. My husband is hooked and asks for it every morning. Keep the container well sealed as all fresh spices lose their potency to air over time.

Love love love the added ginger. I love chai and this tastes great.

This product is as close to my favorite chaiwala in Dehradun as I have been able to find. Their flavor profile is spot on. I have been a loyal fan for the last several years. When my latest order arrived, I noticed the change in packaging, including the new shaker top. Okay, it makes it a little harder to control getting the right spice quantity in the cup, but not insurmountable. Then I noticed the new package contained on 2.1 oz instead of the customary 3.5 oz, but the price remained the same. Spicewalla, if you needed to raise the price, do it; I'm just really disappointed you tried to slip it past us.

I have been on a quest for robust chai. This blend hits all the right notes. Ginger, cardamom and black pepper dominate, cinnamon plays nicely in the background. Seriously better than any blended chai I’ve found! I mix this blend into some good ctc Assam and brew up a warming lovely chai. Every single morning.In the evening I mix it into hot milk. So calming before bed.I’ll take the small canister with me while traveling so I’m able to mix it into Assam. No need to give up my daily chai!If you love good chai, this is for YOU

Very high quality Chai spice that you add into any cup of hot or cold black tea of your choice, to turn it into a chai beverage. I like that the powder comes loose in the cannister (in a bag) so you can measure out how much you need. The flavor emphasizes ginger as more prominent than cinnamon, and I love the kick of ginger. Have grown tired of the "too much cinnamon" trend that has been dousing many of our foods of late, at the expense of over-powering other delicate flavors. Also, many times products out there contain an ingredient called "natural flavors" which are actually NOT natural at all in many cases, and the manufacturer doesn't tell you the source of these so-called "natural" additives they label as "flavors". However this product does NOT have additives under the guise of "natural flavors" so I'm such a happy customer about that. The ingredients are labeled directly as just ginger, cinnamon, green cardamom, black pepper, and allspice. Yes delicious allspice, which other chai tea brands don't usually have. GREAT product also because you can add it to your vanilla puddings, Greek yogurt, rice, couscous and quinoa dishes, as well as sprinkle on desserts or even on fish, which I have done to wide appeal from my dinner guests. Can't say enough about this wonderful product... I love Spicewalla's "Chai Masala" blend!!!
