- TAZO Organic Chai Black Tea Bags, Blend of Black Teas, Ginger, Cinnamon, Black Pepper & Cardamom, 96 Total Tea Bags (16ct - Pack of 6)

I first became aware of Tazo Organic Teas when I purchased a cup of Chi Iced Tea from Starbucks in 2008. After learning what brand of tea they used to make the best iced Chi Tea that I had ever tasted I discovered the Tazo Company and their great variety of various teas. After doing research on the Tazo Company I discovered their secret to consistently producing the best tasting teas year after year. Did you know that almost all tea companies purchase their teas from tea farms that are not owned or quality controlled by them? Therefore, the quality of their teas can vary from year to year depending on the amount of rainfall in the country from where they purchased their tea. The Tazo Tea Company is different. They grow their own tea using a quality controlled process called Regenerative Farming. Through this process they can control the right amount of nutrients in the soil, the right temperature of air with controlled lighting and the exact amount of hydration that will produce high quality tea plants consistently year after year. Tazo Organic Chi Tea is my favorite Chi Tea. And, most of the time I like to drink it hot with a splash of milk to top it off. Did you know that HOW you brew your tea is just as important as the quality of the brand of tea that you choose? I learned how to properly brew black teas from the British. I will now share with you what I learned from them: 1. Start with a good quality tea. Choose organic teas whenever possible. Tea and coffee plants are among the most heavily sprayed crops. And, brewing such teas releases the poisons directly into your cup of tea - not good. 2. Choose a cup made of glass or ceramic. Metal cups and styrofoam cups can negatively effect the taste of tea or coffee. 3. Choose a cup that does not have stains or scratches. Bacteria can breed in dirty or damaged cups. This is not only unhealthy but can negatively affect the taste of tea. 4. Black teas should be brewed in boiling water in order to bring out the full flavor of the tea. 5. Never use tap water or distilled water. Chlorine from tap water will give tea a bad taste and distilled water lacks oxygen and will cause the tea to taste flat. 6. Never use reboiled water. Reboiling removes too much oxygen from the water; only boil enough water for one serving per cup. 7. Let the tea steep in the cup for a full 5 minutes. This will give the tea a rich, full bodied flavor and will release all of the nutrients of the black tea. How strong or weak you make your tea should not be determined by how long you steep your tea; instead, this should be controlled by how much water you pour into your cup. 8. Never brew your cup of tea for more than five minutes. Over brewing will cause your tea to become bitter. 9. Dipping the tea bag several times before removing the tea bag helps release the full flavor of the tea. However, squeezing the tea bag releases additional tannins into the tea causing the tea to taste bitter. So, enjoy your cup of Tazo Organic Chi Tea brewed and served in the style of the British.

Finally a good chai tea without artificial flavors. It is all natural and organic, so there is none of the gunk to pose a reason to avoid it. Which is great when pregnant. It has a little caffeine, which is just the right amount to wake you up and to not raise blood pressure. It smells and tastes nice, although it isn’t as strong as the artificial option that Bigalow offers. If you are looking for something bold, I highly recommend sweetening the tea and even adding a splash of vanilla, or mixing in a hot chocolate mix after brewing for a really bold flavor if the tea itself doesn’t hit the spot (the hot chocolate option is really yummy). I usually find this tea just right for me with or without adding anything extra.

This is my favorite tea! Can't get it in the stores much without paying top dollar! Pretty sure I'm on a subscription! I use it with half water, half milk and raw honey, yum soo good !

I have been drinking Rishi chai tea for a long time but decided to try the Tazo. I do like loose tea and these are tea bags but gave it a try. Wow...this is delicious! The flavor seems more rich and complex than the Rishi tea. I make a large tea pot full every morning, put in eight bags and brew for five minutes. Then I add creamer and sweetener to my cup and drink about three large mugs of this daily. It is just SO delicious! Thinking about this tea in the morning when I wake up encourages me to get out of bed and make some! I've been hooked to this all winter right now and order at least six cases of this at a time. Next time maybe I should order ten cases! Yes, it is that good!! So glad I found Tazo chai and like Rishi, it is organic, which makes me very happy. I do not want to drink tea that has pesticides on it. THANK YOU Tazo for making such a wonderful chai and please do not change your recipe!

This is one of my favorite teas, a nice balance of tea and spice. I was pleased to find that I could order it in bulk (6 boxes at a time) for a very favorable price compared to what is available in the store.

Taste great

I LOVE this tea; the various ingredients are very well combined, and it is particularly wonderful with milk. The only problem is the tea bags: they are not sealed, or even well closed, and they tend to open up while they are steeping. I like my tea strong so I leave the bag in the cup and stir it a lot to get as much flavor as possible, but I have taken a mouthful of what feels like dirt in my mouth only to realize that the teabag was not well closed when I stirred my tea. Now after it steeps for long enough to get the full flavor, I stir it well and then pour it through a very fine strainer. I would much rather dispense with this last step but I like my tea in liquid form only!

Great Tea, Good Price

Really tasty and spicy tea. Would recommend to other spice lovers!

Very hard to find in Australia and price is competitive.

Love these tea bags, it is chai not loaded with sugar, just tea and spices
