Customer Reviews:
LOVED IT! (2008-03-22)
I have always loved chai tea but wanted more spice so I always brewed it really strong. This tea is just right and I’m very happy with it.An enjoyable way to start the day (2008-03-12)
I drank the regular strength Stash Chai for more than a year, and I liked it very much, although I always found myself wishing for a spicier version. When I learned that Stash also makes a Double Spice Chai I picked up a box of it at a local coffee/tea shop and decided it was actually closer to my preferences. When I had a chance to order a case of the Double Spice Chai on Amazon I made my purchase and have been happily drinking it at breakfast for the last couple of months. I make a large double-sized mug-full using two tea bags and I drink it fairly sweet and with a considerable amount of milk or Half and Half, since that is closer to the traditional way to prepare chai as I understand it. I do like it a lot, but I have to agree with the reviewer who commented that the double spice tends to overpower the strength of the black tea component and that Stash would do well to use a heartier variety of black tea in their formulation of this product. Nevertheless, I am still generally content with my Double Chai and am continuing to enjoy my morning brew of it.Over all, fairly good (2006-12-22)
I have tried spiced chai tea, but it did not have enough spices. I also tried a mix where you just add water, but they were too sweet. I prefer a stronger spice flavor and I like to be able to control the amount of milk and sugar. So, I usually make my own chai spiced tea from scratch. I get just the right amount of ingredients, but it is a lot of trouble and takes time.

Then I tried the Stash Double Spiced Chai Tea. With more spice than most other teas I found the flavor and intensity to be fairly close to my home-made chai. This chai tea is able to maintain the flavor of the black tea with a nice blend of spices that give it a little extra kick with the double-spice. Of course, with more spices comes more bitterness. The way to lessen the bitterness is to slightly increase the milk and sugar. A better way to help cut the bitterness is to use honey instead of sugar.

I will still make my own home-made version when I have the time to make it. But, I will also use this Stash Double Spice Chai Tea as an alternative until I find something better.it’s got double the spice, but. . . (2006-11-27)
the tea itself doesn’t seem hearty enough to stand up to the spices. What I mean is that even after waiting the right amount of time for my cup to finish steeping, I have a cup of chai that’s spicy but not really strong enough for me. I don’t like stuff toxic; that’s not the problem. I think perhaps this tea is just not meant to be very strong.

It’s got a great level of spiciness, however, and it smells wonderful as it’s brewing.

Stash Company–how about just a titch more black tea in each bag? Not bad (2006-10-29)
This tea is best hot.. It’s ok cold but I usually drink it plain and imagine it would probably taste better with stevia leaf or xylitol sweetner..
